Product Description
There's one last chance to save the world in MAXIMUM RIDE: SAVING THE WORLD AND OTHER EXTREME SPORTS, the closing chapter of James Patterson's thrilling trilogy. The time has arrived for Max and her winged "flock" to face their ultimate enemy and discover their original purpose: to defeat the takeover of "Re-evolution", a sinister experiment to re-engineer a select population into a scientifically superior master race...and to terminate the rest. Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman, and Angel have always worked together to defeat the forces working against them--but can they save the world when they are torn apart, living in hiding and captivity, halfway across the globe from one another?

 Great book for young and old! October 12, 2008
Both myself and my 10 year old daughter have enjoyed this great book. This is a awesome series!
 Maximum Ride Series August 16, 2008
Not For Adults!!!
I wanted to like this series. My daughter asked me to read them and we have enjoyed many books in the young adult catagory. Unfortunately, this is not one. James Patterson had a good idea and the beginings of some good characters but after the tenth amazing escape and all the really poor dialog I had to stop. Although James is experiencing success with this series, his characters are a really poor rendition of the super hero. Even the teen angst falls flat. If you are looking for a book to read with your teen stick to Harry or try the Stephanie Meyer series Twilight.
 The book read like a commercial for Green. August 13, 2008
I was extremely dissapointed in this book, and a little relieved that it should be the last. The story was terrible, and was not believable at all. The kids would have had to be extremely stupid to go to anartica. The entire book read like an infomercial for the Green movement. It lacked all the saving graces of the first book. It was a waste of money.
Flying high again! July 31, 2008
Book Three did not let me down -- another exciting ride with Maximum and her "family'. I highly recommend this saga to young and old alike.
Fun romp, just don't take it too seriously July 18, 2008
My kids & I really enjoyed this book, and the previous books in the series. I think the female lead is a little masculine in her voice & choices. I think some of the "miraculous healing power" is kind of a cheat to make up for doing serious violence to the characters, and yet keeping them moving for an adventurous pace. But, I think this is one of those fun romping stories you just let yourself skip the thinner details for the sake of the experience. We'll keep reading.
