In my book Maximum Ride: Saving The World And Other Extreme Sports, by James Patterson the plot so far is the flock having a anxious urge wanting to know what happened to the Erasers and all the genetic creations of people/anmials. Soon they find out that the Whitecoats (the evil men running the School or the labs) are slowly finding the creations and killing them. So far I believe that the Universal Theme is "Never give up and you will accomplish your goals". The setting now on pg #40 where Fang and Max (two main members of the flock)flying and scoping out the area for good land to build a new life off of, while Nudge, Iggy, Gazzy, Angel, and Total (Angel's talking dog from the labs). They are doing this, because the flock excluding Max agreed to make a new living and forget about saving the world.

In my book Maximum Ride:Saving The World by James Patterson, the Characters are Max (leader of the flock), Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy, and Angel are on the run from Erasers (wolf-men). The setting so far is the flock driving a hippie van from the 70's and soon taking off into the sky. The universal theme I believe is Never give up on your goals and you will accomplish them. I believe that because so far through the Maximum Ride series the theme has revolved around never giving up and being yourself. In chapter 3 Max gives a pep talk to the flock.

In my book Maximum Ride:The Angel Experiment, the characters (Max,Fang,Iggy,Nudge,Gasman,and Angel) go through an adventure for there lives and to find out who they really are. The setting is a variety of places suce as California,New York,and the sewer system of new york. In their way are the visiuos Erasers(half wolf half men and women creation). I believe the Universal Theme of the book is never be afraid of being what your ment to be.
