Max Ride and her best friends are up against a deadly force, but Fang is gone just when they need him most. Will they be ready for the ultimate showdown?

But now they're up against a deadly force that's racing across the globe, and just when they need him the most, Fang is gone. He's creating his own gang that will replace everyone-including Max. Max is heartbroken over losing Fang, her soul mate. Her closest friend. But with Dylan ready and willing to fight by her side, and she can no longer deny that his incredible intensity draws her in.

good listen

enjoyed it as I have all Max stories. Well written and read. thank you again

leading to a conclusion

this story was better than Fang. it fleshed out the new team of characters better and had more actual story. looking forward to the last book in the series.

Amazing!

I absolutely love the book Angel and the ALL The Maximum ride books. I think that the whole sires was very well made and the story is sooo Amazing.

Excellent listen - great story line

What did you love best about Angel?

The characters and the comic relief even during intense moments. Fun and Keeps your attention.

It is what it is.

Would you listen to Angel again? Why?

I never listen to a book more then once. Some say that you "miss" things when you read but I don't miss a thing. Maybe way in the future I might read something when I can't remember if I read it, but that's rare.

If you’ve listened to books by James Patterson before, how does this one compare?

It's about the same as the others, kids in trouble, kids get out of trouble, kids set up for next book. In this series he kind of shoves the "greenie weenie" message a little hard.

What three words best describe Rebecca Soler’s performance?

Need more range

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, not really, I looked foreword to the times when I could listen but I wasn't compulsive about it.

Any additional comments?
