Publisher's summary

In this eagerly awaited follow-up, brave bird-kid Max and her flock are discovered by an FBI agent and forced to go to "school." There is no such thing as an ordinary day as Max deciphers how and when she's supposed to save the world, and she faces her greatest enemy—a clone of herself.

Great and bad

I love this book. It's as amazing as your nirvana. But like the house of Hades and the Blood of Olympus, the new narrator is terrible. Bring the old one back!

Amazed

I started reading the maximum ride books in High school. I just realized now that there were sequels to the Angel Experiment and I am thrilled. This was my first audio book so the feeling of actually reading verses listening to it is way different. It was great that the audio book allowed for voice overs and sound affects were great the music didn’t quite add up to the story plot line in some sections but it didn’t really take away from the story line at all it just kind of made it hard to pay attention to what was going to happen next which is why I gave it a 4 star rating otherwise if I was able to read it I would. You will just never be able to replace a book with just listening and expect for the same rush and feelings to take place as opposed to listening to someone else read it to you. James Patterson Thank you for your amazing stories they have really kept me animated within my mediocre lifestyle. You made growing up in the woods way more interesting I use to get in trouble for staying up so late reading your books.

Must reads list

At first the music in the background while listening seems, child like for a young adult book. Although as you continue it actually blends really well and transports you into the book's setting. I highly recommend continuing the Ride series.

It's a great read!

This is Patterson's first attempt at writing for a younger audience. His books are action packed and suspenseful. This story follows that formula. Max and her Flock fly high, run from Erasers to New York, and grow with each other. I can't wait to read the next book!

A great installment in a fabulous series

This book was excellently written and excellently performed. The author really captured the reader's attention while the narrator enticed you with her amazing voice. I would highly recommend this title for younger readers who are in to fantasy novels.
