Max Ride and her best friends have always had one another's backs. No. Matter. What. Living on the edge as fugitives, they never had a choice. 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. Max, Dylan, and the rest of their friends must soon join forces with Fang and his new gang for an explosive showdown in Paris that's unlike anything you've ever imagined . . . or read.

Words are neatly translated from page to script in this new audio book addition to the author's popular "Maximum Ride" saga. Once again, Max and her flock are called on to save the world, this time from the Doomsday Group and the mysterious "One Light." The narrator does a great job portraying the characters, giving each one a voice that, for the most part, is distinguishable from the other characters. Toward the end of the novel, a large cliffhanger will entice listeners to continue following the story. Although it would be helpful to read or listen to previous novels in this series before turning to this one, this audio book can stand alone as an exciting and enchanting adventure story. Sound effects are a nice touch, although some are awkward and disjointed. For example, the disco beat in the background at the beginning and end of each CD and each chapter is contrary to the general feel of the story and distracts from the narrator's voice.
