They are quick reads and can be polished off in one or two nights and are a great break in-between some of the heavier books in the fantasy market. They will also appeal to adults largely due to Patterson's excellence in writing best-selling blockbusters.

The Maximum Ride books look like the beginning of an entertaining journey for the YA fantasy market. There is non-stop action and the chapters often end on a cliff-hanger. This book is written largely for the teenage market, although as an adult man I enjoyed it as a fun and simple read. Max is a likeable character and we are able to sympathise with her and her flock's plight. When the story moves away from Max it is then told in the third person. The characterisation is simple and the story is largely told in the first person from Max's point of view. This is a great technique and I am amazed that more writers do not employ it. Before you know it you have read a hundred pages. Patterson's books always seem to have short chapters, which deceives the reader into always starting the next chapter. He has produced a fast paced book that is both enjoyable and easy to read. James Patterson's first foray into Young Adult fantasy is an entertaining one. This book follows their missions, firstly rescuing Angel from malicious mutants and then infiltrating a secret facility to track down their parents. Max leads this flock and they have managed to escape from the school where the experiments were originally performed. This allows them to fly and possess super human strength, along with other unusual traits. Six children Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman and Angel have been genetically experimented upon and now have avian DNA running through their blood, leaving them 98% human and 2% bird. Whether in the treetops of Central Park or in the bowels of the Manhattan subway system, Max and her adopted family take the ride of their lives.These children don't need broomsticks to fly. Her friends brave a journey to blazing hot Death Valley, CA, to save Angel, but soon enough, they find themselves in yet another nightmare-this one involving fighting off the half-human, half-wolf 'Erasers' in New York City. It may seem like a dream come true to some, but their lives can morph into a living nightmare at any time.like when Angel, the youngest member of the flock, is kidnapped and taken back to the 'School' where she and the others were experimented on by a crew of wack jobs. She and all the members of the 'flock'-Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman and Angel-are just like ordinary kids-only they have wings and can fly. In James Patterson's blockbuster series, fourteen-year-old Maximum Ride, better known as Max, knows what it's like to soar above the world.
