For whoever controls her powers could also control the world.
The expedition seems like a perfect combination of adventure, activism-and escaping government forces who watch the Flock like a hawk.īut even in Antarctica, trapped in the harshest weather on our planet, Maximum Ride is an irresistible target in constant danger. Max and the other members of the Flock-six kids who share her remarkable ability-have been asked to aid a group of environmental scientists studying the causes of global warming. Maximum Ride is a perfectly normal teenager who just happens to be able to fly, the result of an out-of-control government experiment. Now, get out of there, and I'll give you the coordinates of where you need to go.In this breathtaking new story from the astonishing imagination of James Patterson, a girl has to save herself from an army assembled just to capture her-and maybe save the planet while she's at it. There's still that voice inside Max's head, and it still keeps saying stuff: The world isn't saved yet, is it? You've got work to do. Enjoy the spectacle!.but there's more to this story too. Well, obviously, the kids are going to have to deal with the Uber-Director. If I hadn't already seen a million incredibly gross things in my life, I would have barfed right there. And yes, it was totally as gross as it sounds. Repulsive? Looking closer, I saw that his guts and stuff were surrounded by and connected to machine parts - hoses, pumps, electronic things. He was sitting - or stacked, more accurately - in a customized wheelchair. a transparent person, with his organs and stuff in clear Plexiglas boxes, and his head attached to one by an almost-bare spinal cord.
I took off, flying fast, like a rocket.Īnd there are still some seriously scary enemies for the flock to fight against like, for instance, the Uber-Director. 'I, uh-,' I began oh so coherently, and then I jumped up, almost knocking him over, and raced down the dock. There's still the same potent magic between Max and Fang, even if the suspense is nearly killing me: Somehow we were pressed together, Fang's arms around me now, sliding under my wings, his hands flat against my back. Max is the leader of the flock, feisty and fierce, but at least she now has her mom who she knows she can trust. It's still the same crazy team.six bird kids and their malevolent enemies chasing round the world. I love the Maximum Ride series, and I was delighted when this new fourth book came out - I thought it was a trilogy!
