What is Maximum Ride about?

Answer 1

Max is fourteen and spent ten years of her life trapped in a laboratory called The School, until she and five other children, who had been experimented on in the same place, are rescued by one of the scientists.

Now:

Their savior is dead.

The School wants them back.

And their lives have turned from upside-down to continuously-spinning-round-and-round.

Did I mention that they're being chased by vicious, bloodthirsty wolf-men called Erasers?

The first 3 books are about the Flock (Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy or the Gasman, and Angel) escaping the School, and trying to stay alive. The next 3 are about Max being told she needs to save the world, in various places depending on the book, such as Antarctica, Hawaii, and the continental US. In the end of Fang, Fang leaves Max a note saying he's leaving, and not to look for him. In Angel, the Flock, now Max, Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy, and Angel, and Fang's Gang, Fang, Max II or Maya, Star, Ratchet, Kate, and Holden, join together to stop the Doomsday Group. The end of Maximum Ride will be the last book coming out in February of 2012.

I really suggest that you read these books, as they include wonderful descriptions, brilliant plots, and twists that will make you never want to put them down. Ever.
