Author: James Patterson
I am sad that this series is over. After having read all of them in a period of two months, I really became attached to this series. Easily one of the best series I have read, even while being disappointed with some things along the way. James really goes all out with Nevermore, as I was hoping he would seeing as it's the finale. I was hoping for that extremely epic conclusion that does justice for the rest of the series and James truly delivered.
I'm going to try my best to keep this review spoiler free (As far as the first 7 books go) I will not spoil anything from this book. Just want to make sure it's a review that you can read, and get interested in the series if you haven't started it. The story takes off in an epic way though, I wasn't expecting things to pick back up as quickly as they did, even with it being the conclusion of the series. You will find yourself questions a lot of the assumptions you have made throughout the series when you read Nevermore. I can't even begin to explain how many times something I thought was settled turned into something completely different that I wasn't expecting at all.
You have all of the same characters, the main focus of the book is just trying to wrap up the story for the characters that we have been with all along. So I am really glad James didn't decide to add a lot of new characters, it would of made things so confusing and really would of took away from the story. I was really surprised how things played out for certain characters though, especially Max, Fang, Angel, Jeb and Ari. There were a few characters that did some things that really shocked me, and I really couldn't wrap my head around why one character in particular wanted to do something very crazy, even though he thought he would be doing the right thing. You will be able to find out about all the tough decisions that have to be made by the characters as things come to a close once you read the book though, I think you all will be just as surprised as I was with some of the things that happen.
The ending was amazing, it wasn't exactly what I was expecting but I am so glad James did it the way he did. I really don't want to give to much away, but I really do think you all will think the ending to this epic series fits the story very nicely. Even though certain aspects of it had me wanting to scream, not because it was bad but just because I was shocked with how things finally played out.
If you have seen my reviews of the rest of the series, you will know I have had my issues with it. But in the end the awesome that is Maximum Ride triumphs, this is seriously one of the best series I have ever read. And I have really enjoyed the experience of it. If you haven't read the books, I highly suggest going out and doing so. The connection you will form with these books is amazing, and will make for one of the most enjoyable reading experiences you can have. I really hope you all will check out these books though if you haven't and if you have read and finished the series I would love to hear what you thought about it.
I could go on and on about Nevermore and the rest of the series though, but I really hope you all have enjoyed my reviews of the series. It was an absolute pleasure to read the books, it's sad that it has came to an end. But the story ended on an epic note, so I am happy. Hope you all will be to.
Thanks to Little Brown for providing me with a copy of this book for review.
