Maximum Ride - What do you think of the series? Empty Maximum Ride - What do you think of the series?

Post by Posidonsdaughter Tue Aug 10, 2010 3:09 am

Maximum Ride is a story of 6 kids 98% human 2% avian. It has 6 books out and #7 will be called ANGEL.

What do you think of the series? Has the story been stretched too far? Which 3 book section have you enjoyed the most? how many more books do you think there should be?

Let's talk!

OMG's! Where did you find out that the next book is gonna be caled Angel? .... Ah-hem. Little freak out moment there. Sorry. Maximum Ride - What do you think of the series? Icon_redface

Anyway, I luvs MR! It's one of my many favorite series. It's absolutely amazing. =) I don't think it's been stretched to far, at least in my opinion. I don't really think I have a fav 3 book section, but my top 4 favs are 1 (Angel Experiment), 2 (School's Out...Forever), 5 (MAX), and 6 (FANG).

I think there should be a book for each of the flock. Amazing series! Can't wait for more!!! =)

I read both series (HG & MR) because you recommended them. Have you ever heard that he uses ghost writers? I'm not sure if that is true. I read it on another site.

I am enjoying the story, and I will read the next book but I don't know how much more staying power it will have. How many more times can they get caught and sent to the school? How much more save the earth stuff will we be dragged through? How many more mad egotistical scientists? When will the disaster happen or be stopped?

Every one is so worried that Patterson won't write another book, but he has to because the apoclypse(did i spell that right?) hasn't happened yet.

They call themselves the flock. There is Max(main character) Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy, and Angel. Max is apparently destined to save the world.

They're... 2% bird? And they have wings and super-strength? Isn't that a bit too much for 2%?

Save the world from who? Or is that a spoiler?

Well not just super strength. Angel can read minds, Nudge can magnetize things, Fang can blend in with his surroundings, etc. I wonder how they would have turned out if the scientists had been rebellious and put in 3% bird DNA.

They'd probably be invincible then. Or what about 4%?! That could end the world! (P.S. Not really)

Just finished rereading the 3rd book. Such a good story. The whole Antartica part was boring. I like how Rick wanted Percy to End strong and that is why he ended at 5 books. What I am afraid of is a weak ending because he dragged it out too long.

Well, the books are kind of big, so Patterson probably didn't want to put to much into one book.

My favorite ones are the first 3 books of the series, and then Fang. Although the ending to Fang made me really sad.

Speaking of Angel, i really don't like her. She thinks shes all powerful just because of what powers she has, and she thinks she has the authority to kick Max out of the flock! I mean, with the homeschooling thing, Max was trying to help the flock be smarter!.

Yeah, she was cute in the first couple of books, but now she's all uppity and she needs to remember that she's only seven. I hope that happens in ANGEL.
