This was not very good lol. I loved the first book the first time I read it so I was ready to enjoy this one as like a silly goofy time but it just doesn't hit. Too much not like other girls energy. Someone else pointed out it doesn't fit with the timeline at all in these reviews. Also interesting to see how these books really are all written by different people, the swearing alone varries so much

Me after reading Nevermore: I will NEVER read another Maximum Ride book!

11 year old me: *Sees two words: Maximum Ride.* *Adds to wishlist.*

Didn’t know it was part of a bigger series. Though when I started to read I realised it reminded me of the original book. But although it siad #1, unfortunately you really need to read the original Max Ride’s series to understand more of the different characters. Otherwise the whole thing just feels so detached and badly written. Hope they turn this into mini series one day. Can imagine it better on screen.

I think this book is really good, I mean you can tell it’s not only James Pattersons voice - but this book isn’t a spinoff more a continuation with a larger character base. Without any spoilers original characters play rolls in the novel. The book flows well, dose a better job of relaying a message without being preachy and I feel the characters are more relatable - this book doesn’t read as a children’s book there is swearing and suggestive language more so than the other books. I haven’t read the next one yet but really I hope this story line keeps going.

I listened to it and the narrator was fantastic. 

You walk outside expecting to see butterflies, the blue sky and white clouds but instead, you see people fighting, a completely gray sky, and everything ahead destroyed and worn down with homeless everywhere. In the City of the Dead 2060, there are many strange people and many are homeless. There are also Opes that are addicted to a drug, called Dope, which helps the government control their lives, unlike in 2020 when there was more freedom from government control. Some prisoners are arrested for things that they never did, similar to 2020, but on a much larger scale. There are exceptions — special families that are called “the sixes” as in six families that are rich because they are the only ones that can import and export goods. The City of the Dead is polluted and there are no animals besides humans. Most people think that animals of the past are a myth or legend.
