Publisher's Note
"Three cheers! Max is one of the smartest, strongest, funniest heroines around." - Diane Garrett, Diane's Books

In this breathtaking new story from the astonishing imagination of James Patterson, a girl has to save herself from an army assembled just to capture her-and maybe save the planet while she's at it.

Maximum Ride is a perfectly normal teenager who just happens to be able to fly, the result of an out-of-control government experiment. Max and the other members of the Flock-six kids who share her remarkable ability-have been asked to aid a group of environmental scientists studying the causes of global warming. The expedition seems like a perfect combination of adventure, activism-and escaping government forces who watch the Flock like a hawk.

But even in Antarctica, trapped in the harshest weather on our planet, Maximum Ride is an irresistible target in constant danger. For whoever controls her powers could also control the world . . . Maximum Ride is James Patterson's greatest character, a heroine who manages to be human and fearless at once. THE FINAL WARNING is an unrelenting new adventure from the writer Time magazine has called "The Man Who Can't Miss."

A JAMES PATTERSON FAMILY PAGETURNER

In the spirit of the most enduring hit movies and books, James Patterson has written this story for readers from ten to a hundred and ten. Special care has been taken with the language and content of THE FINAL WARNING.

I'm a mom of a MAJOR "Maximum Ride" fan. My daughter is a preteen and LOVES this series of books. She breezed through the first three books in a flash and this is a kid who normally thinks of reading as a chore. With M.R. she'll choose the books over T.V. or computer games any day.

As for the fourth book, "Final Warning" is just as entertaining to her as the first three. I've asked her all the way through reading the book what she's thought of this last one and she says she doesn't know what the critics are talking about, she LOVES it. She says it's every bit as good as the others and once again, can't put it down. That's the only thing she says is somewhat bittersweet... It's eventually going to end. But then she says she'll just read them over again!

Thanks to James Patterson for helping my preteen fall in love with reading!

Final Warning? Or Global Warming?

Created: 09/05/08
Hey... I'm as huge a Maximum Ride fan as the next fantasy/sci-fi lover, BUT. This was not really a Maximum Ride novel... This was more of an author-using-his-much-loved-bo​oks-to-spread-the-word-about-g​lobal-warming novel. Now don't get me wrong... I am very much into working towards solving the world's global warming issue, but when I bought Maximum Ride, I wanted to read about the Flock. *sigh* However, if you're a M.R. fan, you'll undoubtedly have to get the book anyway because you of course want to know what happens between Max and Fang and what role Jeb will play in their lives... So... buy it, read it... but before you do all of that, try not to get too excited about learning more about their world and their lives, because its mostly a big global warming warning...

Awesome book series by James Patterson. The books center on a group of children who's DNA was altered to give them the ability to fly. They were meant to be kept a secret until two of the kids escaped.They are discovered by a veterinarian and an FBI agent. together they fight to keep the kids alive.the scientists responsible for altering their DNA will stop at nothing to keep the children a secret. this is a riveting series for teens as well as adults. I highly reccomend these books.

The Final Warning by James Patterson (2008)

Created: 10/08/08
I have read every one of the James Patterson Series of this genre. I had to buy, " The Final Warning "!. The Story line of this specific book is amazing..This book is a continuation of adventures following the genetic enhanced/ bird-human characters, as they take fight for the right-to survive. It is a kaleidoscope of emotions that hit you hard!. One can't help but get caught up in the story. I don't want to give a hint of what this book is about because you really have to read it for yourself!. Don't delay, it's a fantastic book that will keep you entertained for hours on end. I hated to put it down, and I was sad when I finally finished.Love-Love-LOVED IT!. Great Book!. I hope he continues writing about these surreal characters. It is an easy read, and you will get sucked in-guaranteed!..

Maximum Ride The Final Warning

Created: 14/05/08
I particularly like the idea that my grandchildren can read this book. We need to give them more fantasy, and what if books. They get plenty of fact filled books from school. Reading for pleasure, and giving people a sense of something that is outrageously different, and exciting, can provoke a desire to continue to read that will last a lifetime. These books can give parents and grandparents something to talk about with the children, and also keep us young at heart. James Patterson is known for his mysteries, etc. but he has opened up a whole new genre with the Maximum Ride series.
