Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. In general I do not enjoy James Patterson novels as I find them predictable and formulaic but for some reason I quite enjoy the Maximum Ride series. I found the characters to be interesting and I found the story to be fascinating. I liked how it was fantastical but also believable enough that it felt like the vents could maybe actually happen. The writing style is very readable if a bit simplistic. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

This book was where the series well and truly jumped the shark, and where I finally stopped reading. It dropped what plot it had left, turned all its characters into Sues (though they were already heading in that direction anyway), and turned into a thinly disguised tract against global warming. I agree with the author on this issue. That doesn't mean I want to be lectured to death on it. If I wanted that, I'd read blog posts on the issue. I DO read blog posts on the issue. In a work of fiction, I expect any such views to be handled with a little more grace and artistry, because literature is supposed to be an art form. If you make it nothing more than your own soapbox, people will not read it, they will not enjoy it, and ultimately it will succumb to the next hot-button issue. The Grapes of Wrath and A Christmas Carol give social commentary. But people have read them, and still read them, because they're good literature, and not propaganda. Learn the difference, James Patterson. ( )
