Book Spotlight Giveaway! The Angel Experiment by James Patterson

The book that I am featuring this week is the first book in a wonderful series by James Patterson. The Maximum Ride series grabbed my attention way back when. I just discovered that the ninth and final book in this series was published in May 2015. I haven't read them all but they are on my TBR list. I love the books that I did read.  

Good luck and be sure to stop back next week!

The Angel Experiment

The Angel Experiment by James Patterson
Series: Maximum Ride #1
Mass Market Paperback, 413 pages

Published May 2006 by Time Warner Book Group

From the bestselling author James Patterson comes the stunning, breathtaking start to the blockbuster series!

Six unforgettable kids — with no families, no homes — are running for their lives. Max Ride and her best friends have the ability to fly. And that's just the beginning of their amazing powers. But they don't know where they come from, who's hunting them, why they are different from all other humans... and if they're meant to save mankind — or destroy it.

Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman, and Angel. Six kids who are pretty normal in most ways—except that they're 98 percent human, 2 percent bird. They grew up in a lab, living like rats in cages, but now they're free. Aside, of course, from the fact that they're prime prey for Erasers - wicked wolflike creatures with a taste for flying humans.

Book Spotlight and a Giveaway! The Angel Experiment (Maximum Ride #1) by James Patterson

The Angel Experiment (Maximum Ride #1)

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. 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. 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.

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. 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 from her old friend and father-figure Jeb--now her betrayed and greatest enemy--that her purpose is save the world--but can she? ~~ synopsis from Goodreads
