Product Description

Review

'The first in a series from adult-thriller writer Patterson has all the characteristics of his work for grown-ups: pace, action, mystery and cool... sharp and punchy with plenty of jokes and shocks. And it proves that girls can be tough, too.'

(The Sunday Times )

'Patterson knows where our deepest fears are buried... There's no stopping his imagination.'

(New York Times Book Review )

'Nonstop action carries this page-turner breathlessly from start to finish... Speed, suspense, excitement' Kirkus Reviews (Kirkus Reviews )

'MAXIMUM RIDE is a fast-paced, action-packed fantasy adventure that children will love' Age, Melbourne 4/6/05 (Age, Melbourne )

'This skilled and compulsive tale is so involved about kids being brave against the odds' The Sunday Times, 3/7/05 (The Sunday Times )

'A fast-moving, thrill-a-minutes, neo future adventure that pits good against evil in a most significant way... It's imaginative, it's exciting, it's touching - but it's also damn scary considering what some scientists are up to already.'

( The Northern Echo )

'The characters are so well written that you'll really root for them. It's edge of your seat, thrilling stuff.' 5 Stars.

( Flipside )

The Angel Experiment is an action filled suspense novel by an extremely talented writer.

James Patterson is able to keep the readers' full attention throughout the book using twisted hooks and an amazing storyline. The story is based on a girl named Max who has genetically been given wings. She spent nearly all her life in a laboratory and the book is mainly targeted at her struggle to live life as a runaway when her and her companions escape.

The story keeps a fast energetic pace from begining to end and has been carefully put together using clear, exciting and clever writing techniques.

The book ends with a cliff-hanger leaving readers hungry for the sequel "Schools out forever"that is yet to be released.

The Angel Experminent is a book I'd recomend to teens and older readers, who appreiciate a good read and have time to read a book that's utterly unputdownable- It really is amazing!

This is definetly a book you'd be mad to miss out on!

I am in my thirties and have always been a big fan of James Patterson. Maximum Ride has to be one of the best he has ever written. The main character has a tough time finding out about her true background and stumbles across obstructions every day before finding "the school". Maximum Ride is easy to read and applies to all ages - I have passed this book to a number of my friends who have thoroughly enjoyed the adventure!!

Gripping, thrilling and full of surprises. Maximum Ride 'The angel exeriment' has made me one of the characters in the book, this book keeps you hooked and wanting to read more. As I put the book down for a break, the characters and places stay in the back of my mind, as I pick the book up again I start to read the next chapter and find myself lost in the mind of a teenage girl with wings fighting for her life. This book is an amazing way to let your imagination go wild!

Better for juvenile readers
I was actually surprisingly impressed with this book. It's certainly not my usual book choice and there were elements that I did dislike, but it was a good read, all the same. Read more
