Maximum Ride

Maximum Ride 3 / James Patterson and Narae Lee

This is book three in the graphic novel adaptation of james patterson's Maximum Ride series. Narae Lee is the adaptor and illustrator (awesome job).

Heres the lead up from the previous two books - Max and her "flock" appear at a glance to be normal kids ... that is, if you don't notice the wings.

Instilled with avian DNA in a lab known as the "School", Max and her family escape confinement with the help of scientist Jeb Batchelder, who they believed perished assisting them. When the youngest of the flock, Angel, is abducted by the lab's foot soldiers - shape shifting men and women infused with lupine DNA called Erasers - led by Jeb's son, Ari, Max discovers the Jeb is not only alive, but still working with the school! Rescuing Angel, the flock heads to New York City to find the "Institute" which they believe holds the secrets to their past. While raiding the facility, thought they are again confronted by Jeb and his Erasers. The flock manages to get away, but not before Max accidently kills Ari. Now the flock is off to Washington D.C. following up a lead on their parents, but Max can't escape mysterious voice that's begun whispering inside her head - or Jeb's haunting words that in killing Ari she may have killed her own brother...

In book 3 - after narrowly surviving their encounter with erasers in New York City, the flock is following up a lead on thier pasts in Washington D.C. but what they find waiting for them is...a home? How will the flock adjust to a real school - one that doesn't involve mad scientists and genetic freaks?
