Heesun J.- Fast-paced and action-packed, this book is perfect for those who want something different. The Angel Experiment is sci-fi, but not so much that you won't understand what they're talking about. Plenty of funny moments, especially with a very sarcastic teenager who has quite the temper. Suspenseful, never letting you put the book down, until unfortunately, it's done and your running to get the next book in the series. Full of betrayals, puzzles, and everything else that makes a book so good. Recommended no matter who you are. (

This book was just as good as i expected it to be. It was funny and exciting and heart felt. I loved everything these misfits had to offer me. (

This book takes you on a great adventure. The kids in this book are part of an experiment that gives them wings. They are trying to get away from other kids who are part of the experiment called erasers. The book is action packed and leaves you wanting more. (

Enjoyable in a si fi, fantasy sort of way. I realize a definitive ending would eliminate another installment, but sometimes it's good to find the end of a story line. (

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0446617792, Mass Market Paperback)

DESCRIPTION: James Patterson's young adult masterpiece of non-stop action, mystery and suspense soared to the top of bestseller lists and created an explosion of new fans for this beloved, multimillion-selling author.Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman, and Angel are kids who are pretty normal-except that they're 98% human, 2% bird. They grew up in cages, living like rats, and now they're free-but being chased by the wicked, wolf-like Erasers, who've kidnapped Angel. Led by Max, the "Flock" embarks on a quest to find Angel, infiltrate a secret facility to track down their parents, get revenge on an evil traitor, and try to save the world-if there's time.
