Not only is the cast identical (except for the villain) to "When the Wind Blows" (namely, Kit, Frannie, and the six bird-children), but the plot is virtually the same as well, substituting the evil "Hospital" for the evil "School" that hatched the kids in the first place. James Patterson revisits some very important moral and social issues that should be addressed before scientists go much farther in genetic engineering.

So - a reworked fantasy plot, and a weak tail-end are offset by an entertaining, fast-paced book in the Patterson style; so on balance, average. Frannie O’Neill’s life turned upside down when she and FBI maverick Kit Brennan rescued six incredible winged children from the school that created them. S.

Talk about a man's ego, he even designs his wife who will not age, with a mute button who is supposed to compliment him everyday and do the needful at the drop of a hat. When I was ready to finally finish it, Patterson decided to add in one last little scene that made the novel better than it was. We would urge you to skip the original story else it will probably spoil this one out of sheer similarity.Your payment method will be charged immediately, and the product is expected to ship on or around June 9, 2003. Despite her fear that someone is spying on her, Max tries to relax, going out on a date with a classmate only for him to grope her and then mock her.
