And Angel... Can anyone say "grossly overpowered"? Wings, mind reading, breathing underwater, talking to fish, telekinesis or something, loved by everyone, and so much more.

I don't mean far fetched story plots, but I agree, far fetched characters *in terms of the story* annoy the hell out of me.

I read the first book and the only character I liked was Iggy...The rest were...well...not so good. Well, I guess Fang was okay, but I really didn't like the book very much. Far-fetched plot + Mary Sue characters=not a very good book

Ha, I agree. And now it's sort of like Patterson is milking the cash cow for all it's worth...

He's written a lot, though. I've read the Maximum Ride series (God, she even has a Mary Sue name!), my friend has read romance novels by him, and a relative of mine has read mystery novels by him. It does take skill to write in such a wide variety of genres, but Maximum Ride isn't very good...

Second best book series. First is, of course, PJO.

Also? Written by ghost-writers. Explains the FF-y feel of it.

FF-y feel? What's that?
