Search - The Angel Experiment (Maximum Ride, Bk 1)

Absolutely charming and fun to read. Although it's not classified as a book for young adults, my 12-yr-old daughter and all of her friends read it and loved it. My daughter carried the book everywhere she went and couldn't put it down - and, that's a first! I'm a Patterson fan, and I cannot believe this is his work because it's so unlike anything else he has written. Excellent read for adults and "tweens." Feel free to email with any questions. ~LeAnn

A very good book, works great for any age level. This book goes on about a group of children who were experiments and how they have banded together to create their own family in the face of danger.

I really liked this book, but I felt that there was not enough back story, no explanations as to what happened to these bird kids, why they were experimented on, who their parents were, just tortuous hints that they were supposed to save the world. Also, after 400 plus pages of repeated escape and capture, I was a bit annoyed with the cliffhanger ending. I do realize this is a serial novel and I look forward to reading the rest of this series, an enjoyable, quick read, not just for teens!

Fantastic - I didn't even realize this was for young adults until I started reading the second book in the series. Great premise and plenty of action.

This was a good read, alittle young for me(NO ROMANCE)but overall I liked the storyline. Book 2 picks up alot faster than the first.

I had enjoyed Patterson's original books about winged children (When the Wind Blows & The Lake House). Max had been my favorite character in those books. I was happy to see he had reinvented the character and the plot. Great start to the series.
