Maximum Ride | "Brilliant, Evil Business Model"

"Is James Patterson the GOAT?"

Our Patrons have been begging for it for ages, and it finally won our latest poll. We're taking on the original book in James Patterson's first middle grade/young adult series, Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment (2005). Kellie and Daphne are joined by special guest and one-time Maximum Ride superfan, Megan, to take on Patterson's infamous, bizarre career and his sci-fi book about mutant bird children. Did you know that this book is about mutant bird children?
