Arrow Books Maximum Ride. Manga. Vol. 4 Паттерсон Джеймс

Fourteen-year-old Maximum Ride, better known as Max, knows what it's like to soar above the world. She and all the members of the 'Flock' - Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman and Angel - are just like ordinary kids - only they have wings and can fly. It may seem like a dream come true to some, but their lives can morph into a living nightmare at any time - like when Angel, the youngest member of the 'Flock', is kidnapped and taken back to the 'School' where she and the others were genetically engineered by sinister scientists. Her friends brave a journey to blazing hot Death Valley, California, to save Angel, but soon enough, they find themselves in yet another nightmare - this one involving fighting off the half-human, half-wolf 'Erasers' in New York City

Having rescued Angel from the horrors at the School, the flock heads east to escape the Erasers. But the danger's not over yet. Whether in the treetops of Central Park or the bowels of the Manhattan subway system, Max and her adopted family are on the ride of their lives. Along the way Max discovers from her old friend and father-figure Jeb - now her betrayer and greatest enemy - that her purpose is to save the world. But can she? The Angel Experiment concludes in volume 2!

Fang's blog has brought ITEX and their cruel research to the world's attention, and his readers take a stand at the facility where Max and the girls are being held, shutting the organisation down. But Max isn't through saving the world yet! When the Flock is asked to aid a group of environmental scientists studying the effects of global warming, the expedition seems like a perfect combination of adventure and activism. But even in Antarctica, Max is an irresistible target with the eyes of the world upon her. For whoever controls her powers could also control the world

There's a rift in the flock, and everyone is choosing sides! While Max and her team are Europe-bound, Fang and his crew head west. No matter which direction the flock heads in, though, there's trouble around every corner. Itex's 'by-half plan' to reduce the world's population is already in motion, and they have no intention of letting anything - or anyone - stand in their way! Can these bird-kids of a feather survive if they don't flock together?

Joining a scientific expedition gives Max and the flock a pefect opportunity to distance themselves from the heated debate in the antarctic! A powerful figure in the underworld has promised the super-human kids to the highest bidder – and he has the robotic army to ensure the goods are delivered!

Escaping Itex in Florida, the flock head west, with Max more burdened than ever by the knowledge that she's meant to save the world. But while their leader is keen to stay on the path leading to her destiny, Fang and the others are more interested in settling down and letting the chips fall where they may. With the erasers eerily absent from their lives of late, has the flock finally earned a bit of peace... or is this all just the calm before the storm?

Narrowly surviving their encounter with erasers in New York City, the flock is following up a lead on their pasts in Washington, D.C. But what they find waiting for them is ... a home?! How will the flock adjust to a real school - one that doesn't involve mad scientists and genetic freaks?

When Dr. Martinez and her colleagues established the Coalition to Stop the Madness, spreading environmental awareness through the flock's public air shows, Max knew it could be dangerous. Never in her wildest dreams, though, did she imagine that a criminal mastermind would abduct her mother! Now the flock has to team up with the U.S. Navy to rescue Dr. Martinez... and of course, the world!
