Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment


James Patterson's Maximum Ride series is about a group of genetically-altered hybrid children with human and bird dna, resulting in wings and other bird characteristics. Maximum, or Max, is the oldest, and takes it upon herself to lead the "flock", which consists of Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman, and little Angel. The group escaped from the lab called the "School" where they were created and have been hiding out ever since. When Angel is abducted by the vicious Erasers, a human-wolf hybrid also created in the School, Max vows to rescue her, no matter the cost. The bird kids face the unfamiliar outside world to free Angel and infiltrate the mysterious Institute, while trying to keep a low profile and outrun the relentless Erasers that seem to materialize around every corner. The Angel Experiment is a suspenseful, action packed thriller that lives up to its promise to take the reader on the maximum ride.
