Question: I thought that Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment was supposed to be the follow up or sequel to Where the Wind Blows and The Lake House? What's up with that?

Answer: Nope, if you read the front cover of Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment James Patterson says that the book was inspired by those books. So it's not the sequel, and should not be taken into account when reading the other two books. Keep in mind, Maximum Ride is a completely different story.

Question: What are the other books that people keep talking about? WtWB and tLH?

Answer: They are: Where the Wind Blows and it's sequel The Lake House and they deal with a similar plot line as Maximum Ride, it has a character in it named Max who is similar to the Max is MaxRide, but it ISN'T THE SAME CHARACTER. Everything that happen to the Max in Where the Wind Blows and The Lake House haven't happened to the Max in MaxRide
