James Patterson has put out four books this year. If you count the book of mystery stories by other authors that Patterson editted, I really think that he has put out three books this year. I looked it up... he put out five books in 2005 and five more in 2004.
With that said... there is a fourth book scheduled to be released on July 31,2006.
Seriously...
His latest book Maximum Ride School's Out Forever is a continuation of a series of books that he enjoys writing. It is the only series of books that he writes by himself. All of his other books nowadays have co-authors and follow a similar formula. The tone and sarcasm in this novel are similar to what he normally writes, but with a twist... it is oriented for "Young Adults."
This is officially located in the "Young Adults" section of the library yet it reads and has the same sort of action as his regular books... just without the sex and violence.
The book (James Patterson's Maximum Ride School's Out Forever) was decent enough, but I wouldn't really recommend it unless you have liked the three original books -- one as a young adult book and two as adult, regular fiction books.
Look for something fun to do this summer... most likely.... avoiding this book.
