yipee!! wew,, I've got the complete series of the Maximum Ride. finally, God, thank you.
Haha.. though now I'm run out of money bcoz of that, I have no regrets! Maximum Ride is really a GOOD book, written by an awesome author, James Patterson. (I love him bcoz he make this books!!) hahaha..
The plot follows the adventures of Maximum Ride, more widely known as Max, and her group of human-avian hybridshuman and 2% bird. The experiments were conducted at a facility known as "The School", located in Death Valley, California. The flock is constantly being hunted down by Erasers, human-lupine (wolf) hybrids, that were also created at the School. The Flock works towards protecting the world from domination by mysterious figures, who have also shown an interest in their capture. However, the most recent republishing of the books have featured two different series names: The Fugitives and The Protectors. (known as the Flock), who have been the subjects of experiments leaving them 98%
Here : The list of Characters or I should say the name list of the Flock and about themself:
1. Maximum Ride (Max)
Maximum Ride (Max) is fourteen years old, the oldest of the avian-human hybrids and the leader of the Flock. She is 5'8 and has a wingspan of about 13 feet across. Her wings are an off white and brown with tan specks. Max acts as a motherly figure to the Flock, nurturing them and looking out for them. She is also known as being a terrible cook of everything other than chocolate chip cookies, which are her favorite food. Max and the rest of the Flock are noted to be claustrophobic, a fear that came from being shut up in dog crates while at the School.
2. Fang
Fang has olive skin, dark night-sky eyes, and black hair. Max frequently refers to him as her "right-hand man". Fang is described as being slightly stronger than the rest of the Flock, though in battle he frequently takes near-fatal wounds.
In "The Final Warning" Fang's first "self-mutation" is discovered when he fades into near-invisibility while the Flock is camped in a state park. The rest of the Flock is unable to find him until he moves, instantly bringing him back. Fang says that he was never gone, and instantly, his new skill is discovered. Other than this skill and flight, Fang has no special abilities or talents. Though the Flock all dislike small enclosed spaces and cages, Fang's claustrophobia maybe be a bit more extreme than the others', which is shown when a cage was dropped around him, signifying his worst fear.
A fourteen year old kid, Iggy is the same age as Max and Fang, only 6 months younger than Max. He is around six foot four and has (sightless) blue eyes and strawberry blonde hair. Permanently blind, Iggy uses his other senses to make up for it. He can see things that are white, and can tell different colors apart by feeling them. The Whitecoats at the School did an experiment on Iggy to enhance his night vision, which failed horribly, and now he is blind. His wings have a golden-yellow color to them, and he has a wingspan of over 14 feet. Iggy is the flock's chef, and can cook fairly well in most conditions. The flock uses taps in Iggy's hand to tell him silent commands, since he cannot see. Iggy loves explosives and fire and is very good at making bombs (Why is the blind guy playing with matches?)
4. Nudge
A Motor mouth (The Nudge Channel: All Nudge, All The Time), Nudge is an African American, 11 years old, and very talkative. Her wings are brown with russet streaks and streaked with white on the underside. She has curly brown hair (highlighted blonde during a makeover. She is a skilled computer hacker, and develops tenuous psychometric powers within the course of the first book. This has its disadvantages, as she appears to start crying whenever she touches something that has generated great sadness or if many people have touched it, as when she went to the Vietnam Memorial on a field trip in School's Out Forever. In the fourth book in chapter 5, Nudge develops the ability to attract metal when she wants to. When Jeb sees this he explains that he never gave her that power so he says that they could possibly be " mutating" on their own. Her real name is Monique.
The Gasman is eight years old. He earned his name from the fact that he frequently passes gas, although he is often called Gazzy, Gazzer, or Gasser instead. He also has the ability to mimic any sound or voice, an ability which he uses to play pranks. he gets the ability to release a gas that is yellow greenish. Max called it a mushroom cloud.
The Gasman is a blond-haired kid with blue eyes, and is tall for his age like the rest of the flock. His wing color is a brown with white spots but wing size is unknown.
His number at The School was F28246eff.
Biologically related only to Gazzy, Angel is the 'baby sister' of the entire Flock, and like a daughter to Max. She is six years old, with curly blonde hair and 8-foot-wide, pure white wings that together give her an "angelic" appearance. This causes her to immediately fall in love with the stuffed bear she calls Celeste, who is dressed up as an angel. She also owns a small, black Cairn Terrier dog, named Total, stolen from the Institute for Higher Living. Angel is a very powerful telepath. Generally sweet-tempered, Angel exhibits a vicious streak when using her mind-control abilities. Angel is very mature and tall for her age, standing at 4'11, but succumbs easily to the joys of places like Disney World and the beach
7. Total
Total is a black scottie that joined the Flock after their visit to The Institute of Higher Living. He also can talk, . Besides talking, he can also jump an incredible height: about 30 feet.
He is very sensitive about being a dog, and doesn't want to be treated any differently than the rest of the flock. In the second book, Total mentions that he wishes that he had wings after nearly dying when Gasman rammed into Iggy, which caused him to drop Total while flying. At the end of the third book, Total is extremely outraged when Dr. Martinez assumes he is a normal dog and gives him scraps in a bowl on the floor.

1. The Angle Experiment
2. School's Out- Forever
3. Saving The World and Other Extreme Sports
4. The Final Warning
5. Water Wings (ok, I don't know about this, I mean, I don't have it now coz it hasn't been published!!) here' the highlight:
It was confirmed that a fifth Maximum Ride book will be released on March 16, 2009. The title of the book was revealed to be Water Wings: A Maximum Ride Novel. A summary was released in mid-2008: Comfortable in their new safe house, Max and the rest of the Flock finally begin to feel optimistic about their newly-gained freedom.
