James Patterson, a girl has to save herself from an army assembled just

like a perfect combination of adventure, activism — and escaping

planet, Maximum Ride is an irresistible target in constant danger. For
whoever controls her powers could also control the world. Maximum Ride
is James Patterson’s greatest character, a heroine who manages to be

This series has also been adapted as manga.
The Maximum Ride novels for young adults feature 6 teenagers who are 98% human and 2% avian.
NOTE: James Patterson’s author note in the beginning of each books says:
“To the reader:
The idea for Maximum Ride comes from earlier books of mine called When
the Wind Blows and The Lake House, which also feature a character named
Max who escapes from a quite despicable School. Most of the similarities
end there. Max and the other kids in Maximum Ride are NOT the same Max
and kids featured in those two books. Nor do Frannie and Kit play any
part in Maximum Ride. I hope you enjoy the ride anyway.”

If the biblical plagues of Egypt truly happened–could they happen again–on a global scale?
Two years after vanishing into the Sudanese desert, the leader of a
British archeological expedition, Professor Harold McCabe, comes
stumbling out of the sands, frantic and delirious, but he dies before he
can tell his story. The mystery deepens when an autopsy uncovers a
bizarre corruption: someone had begun to mummify the professor’s
body–while he was still alive.
His strange remains are returned to London for further study, when
alarming news arrives from Egypt. The medical team who had performed the
man’s autopsy has fallen ill with an unknown disease, one that is
quickly spreading throughout Cairo. Fearing the worst, a colleague of
the professor reaches out to a longtime friend: Painter Crowe, the
director of Sigma Force. The call is urgent, for Professor McCabe had
vanished into the desert while searching for proof of the ten plagues of
Moses. As the pandemic grows, a disturbing question arises.
Are those plagues starting again?
Before Director Crowe can investigate, a mysterious group of
assassins leaves behind a fiery wake of destruction and death, erasing
all evidence. With the professor’s body incinerated, his home
firebombed, Sigma Force must turn to the archaeologist’s only daughter,
Jane McCabe, for help. While sifting through what’s left of her father’s
work, she discovers a puzzling connection, tying the current threat to a
shocking historical mystery, one involving the travels of Mark Twain,
the genius of Nikola Tesla, and the adventures of famous explorer, Henry
Morgan Stanley.
To unravel a secret going back millennia, Director Crowe and
Commander Grayson Pierce will be thrust to opposite sides of the globe.
One will search for the truth, traveling from the plague-ridden streets
of Cairo to a vast ancient tomb buried under the burning sands of the
Sudan; the other will struggle to stop a mad genius locked within a
remote Arctic engineering complex, risking the lives of all those he
holds dear.
As the global crisis grows ever larger, Sigma Force will confront a
threat born of the ancient past and made real by the latest science–a
danger that will unleash a cascading series of plagues, culminating in a
scourge that could kill all of the world’s children . . . decimating
mankind forever.

a race against time to solve a riddle going back centuries, to a
ghastly crime against humanity hidden within a cryptic medieval codex.
The first clue is discovered inside a mummified corpse buried in an
English peat bog — a gruesome secret that threatens America and the
world.
Aided by two women from his past — one his exlover, the other his new
partner — Gray must piece together the horrifying truth. But the
revelations come at a high cost, and to save the future, Gray will have
to sacrifice one of the women at his side. That alone might not be

doom.
