Book review: Maximum Ride

Welcome readers once again I still don’t have the slightest idea on how to make folders even though that is what I am feeling this page really needs so once again if you know please email me at ssj7zombislayer@gmx.com once I get the folder is up this is going to be my little informational corner of course the name will be much catchier. Anyways this is going to be my little reader corner. I recently finished reading a trilogy by an amazing author. James Patterson is the author and Maximum ride is the series. These books are actually really good reads, I am not going to go into extreme details because very soon the Maximum Ride series will be made into movies and there is already a manga line but the books are priceless, so without further ado here is my review.

            The first of the 4 books is called Maximum Ride: The Angel experiment, the second book is Maximum Ride: School’s Out Forever, the third is Maximum Ride: Saving the World and other extreme sports and the final book is called Maximum Ride: I have yet to even start the last one ine the series because I initially bout the books when they first came out a few years back. The books are non stop action with extremely good plot and character development. The reading is not too difficult and I love James Patterson style of writing with his extremely short chapters.  I also like the semi connections that he has between characters in different books of his.

            In a nutshell the Maximum Ride series is about a group of teenagers that as babies there dna was combined with avian dna strains. There leader is Maximum aka Max she is the strong willed and quick reacting leader of the group. Fang is the 2^nd in command and I describe him as an emo dark haired and of very few words and not the most social butterfly. Then there is Iggy( my favorite) Iggy is blind but you can barely tell it obviously due to years of experience and he has an extremely strong sense of hearing and smell. Then there is Nudge. Nudge is the only one of them of color she is described as black with really pretty skin and hair she has an uncanny ability to hack computers and type like the wind. Then there is Gazzy aka the Gasman his name does imply a lot he is younger then Nudge but older then angel and him and Iggy share an obsession and talent for making explosives. Also Gazzy has the ability to mimic voices to an exact tone. Then there is Angel the baby of the group…well the youngest of them all, A lot of the story focus on here she has a critical role mainly because she can read minds pretty cool. All the kids have well above any normal human’s strength and have actual feather wings.

            They get chased over the entire map trying to stay alive hunted down by werewolf like creatures and other genetic mutations. The story has a lot of up’s and downs and plety of plot twist. Parents trying to get there young teens or even middle school age children, this would be a good series to start with. And again there is 4 so that is a lot of reading to do and a good way to kill some time during the winter months. Yes I said winter summer time should be spent out playing and yes reading to but take my advice break the reading increase to them in the winter. The book does have some no a lot of ties to Anarchy which I loved obviously. All in all I give the series a 5 star splash!!!! I can not find or ask for anything better. Currently there is production of a movie and there is a manga already in print. I read 3 of the books before I ever saw the manga and the characters looked a lot like I imagined again in my little readers corner I do feel that there will be many more post about James Patterson books. Also I do plan on making a films folder. I know that technology is growing but people we really do not need to replace newspapers and books with all online and electronic replacements… it is a good feeling to smell new papers and to old a comic you say…anyways keep feeding your mind.

                                                                               

 

Another Shocker

Once I manage to get folders made this is going to be one of the many post that goes under the banner the downfall of america. So today I was reading the newspaper and on the front page (yes I still actually read a physical paper) was an article in bold letters “Don’t ask, don’t tell officially history”. In short this bill/law whatever that was passed allows America to become the first nation in history to openly allow gays to serve in there military. Now I personally have no quarrels with gays but this will affect those openly people in more ways then one.

            For one you have to look at how the rest of the world will respect your nation and continue to acknowledge them as a dominant force knowing that there commander may be cross dressers. That means at UN conferences in years or maybe months men will stand there representing America and have on a womens uniform. Because this is just the beginning; by allowing them to openly serve what happens when the whole gender identity gets raised up…and it will because that is the next unnatural progression. More mundane studies will be done and then it will be passed that if a man is gay and he feels he is a women then he deserves to be treated like one. Then there is gender modification and same sex marriages. The federal government has not made it a law but some states have. So when one is deployed will you pay the spouse separation pay?

            And then there is still the factor of distractions in the field and in general. From people that don’t agree with there life styles to people that want to get them in the bed. Even between men and women you don’t always want a women bent over in front of him and expect him to stay focused on watching the little terrorist sneak across the field. Reading this article was a very very drop down on the scale of the growth of that country they are working against themselves and honestly do not get the concept that a divided house will fall.
