If you're used to James Patterson's brand of thriller mysteries, you're in for a surprise: the same thriller focus and talent is evident, but the scene has moved from mystery/horror to mystery/science fiction in his latest novel Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment. Be prepared for a plot revolving around six youths who are 98 percent human, 2 percent bird. Be prepared for a secret mission to locate a missing parent and save Angel from mutants. And be prepared for a series of sub-plots which assure the swift pace is unrelenting. Maximum Ride represents a departure from Patterson's usual formula: it shouldn't be missed.
