The Angel Experiment

A Maximum Ride Novel

De: James Patterson

Narrado por: Evan Rachel Wood

Max soars above the world . . . but in James Patterson's thrilling adventure, fantasy can come crashing down to reveal the nightmares of the Angel Experiment.

Maximum Ride and her "flock" -- Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman and Angel -- are just like ordinary kids, only they have wings and can fly. It may seem like a dream come true to some, but their lives can morph into a living nightmare at any time.

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 whack jobs. Her friends brave a journey to blazing hot Death Valley, CA, to save Angel, but soon enough, they find themselves in yet another nightmare: fighting off the half-human, half-wolf "Erasers" in New York City. 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.

Along the way, Max discovers that her purpose is save the world. But can she?©2005 SueJack, Inc.; (P)2005 Time Warner Audiobooks

Incomplete but an A anyway

As always Paterson has given us a thrilling book. It also is very well read. The only thing wrong with this book is that it is incomplete. Paterson has left us litterally up in the air, with no ending for the kids in sight. It is great that the main character has discovered her world, but there are just too many questions left unaswered for the reader. If you can stand to be left praying for a sequel to finish the story, then don't pass this one up. THERE HAD BETTER BE A SEQUAL.

love max

great book series. read it years ago and now listening to it with my granddaughter

great reader

the reader was awesome. hope she reading the others. she made me feel like I was actually there

tween read

My 11 yr old son read this book in a day, so I picked up the audiobook to try to keep up with him, wanting to have conversations with him on the material he reads. It was not surprising that Patterson did a great job, and wrote an easy-read action novel for tween readers. I love it when - especially my sons - get hooked on a book and series. enjoyed the listen!

Great but Needs Closure

The book had a wonderful storyline up to the end. After that he leaves you hanging. I hope there is a sequel!

Childhood Favorite

This was one of my favorite books as a youth and I recently thought I’d give it a listen to nostalgia. It was just as good as I remembered although, the narration had music in it every now and then which I felt was unnecessary. Other than that, great read/listen!

1 of the best books ever!

It was amazing and very creative. I like how Much the author Into the book and how many Amazing details There were just just made the book more Awesome. If I was a judge of a book competition and I had to pick world's best book I would pick this book as the world's best book. I really really want them to make this book into a movie and All the other Maximum ride books Into a movie. Thank you James Patterson for Writing this book it was an amazing book and I really loved the details.

A book for pre-teens

Maximum Ride is the typical story of an older girl that takes care of the younger "siblings". (A lot like "The Boxcar Children") I downloaded this book because I saw a lot of positive reviews, and I was sorely disappointed. It is very possible that I would have enjoyed an unabridged version, because the story seemed a little choppy. The jokes about bodily functions will keep the kids entertained, but from an adult perspective, they get old fast. (My husband only got through 20 minutes) The ending was abrupt and unsatisfying. It seemed as if the author had a deadline to meet and released the book before he was finished.

Maximum Ride

This was a great read. James Patterson did it again with another great book. Once I sat down to read it I couldn't put it down. Definatly a must read. Enjoy!

It is a very good story

I can’t remember when I first Started to read this series but I feel it to be a great read
