FANG: A Maximum Ride Novel by James Patterson

My Rating: 3 stars

**If you haven’t read previous books, don’t read!**


Max and the flock are in trouble again. Angel says Fang will be the first to die. Soon. And after meeting Dr. Hans in Africa, Max left right away. Something just wasn’t right about that guy. Dr. Hans introduced Max to her “perfect other half”. Another human-bird hybrid named Dylan. How could Dylan be her perfect other half when she had Fang? And are Dr. Hans and Dylan just a part of the plot to kill Fang?
Whoa, okay…what happened? This book was actually somewhat…good.
That’s right. FANG actually had a plot, unlike the fourth and fifth book in this series, The Final Warning and MAX. The only thing I couldn’t stand whatsoever about this book was the “romance” part to it. Okay. I understand if Max and Fang like each other. Whatever. But I don’t think anyone can find their “soul mate” at fifteen. Like really? That’s kind of corny and unrealistic. And it kind of got annoying how Max being with Fang was basically the whole point of the book and the other characters just got shoved to the side, fought some Erasers and got tested on. But hey – this book at least had a plot.
Excited for the next one? I sure don’t know.

The Angel Experiment was definitely the best one.

I agree with you on the whole “finding your soulmate at fifteen” thing. It’s ridiculous. I am not going to lie but i seriously like cried when the flock kicked Max out of the group. It was like “WHAT!?”. I mean seriously how can a seven year old make descisions like that. Angel is too innocent and naive to do anything with dealing with the flock. Someone needs to give her a good talking down to. I’m just sayin…
