I have recently begun purchasing the Maximum Ride books, but when I went into a Barnes and Nobles store to get books 2, 3, and 4, I realize that I have forgotten the exact order of the titles, so I look at the spines as some have their book number written on them. After coming back home and taking 5 seconds on the internet, I realize that something is very very wrong.
The proper book 2->3->4 order as I'm sure you all know is School's Out - Forever -> Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports -> and The Final Warning.
NOT according to the versions I picked up. For some reason, the version of Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports I just bought is convinced that it's NOT book three, but instead Book TWO.
And it's not just the spine that says it! I found an online version of Saving the World and did a script comparison just to be sure about this, but where in the narration Max would inform readers that they are not reading the first book in the series, the online version reads:
"Those of you who picked up this book cold, even though it’s clearly part three of a series"
While the hard copy I now own reads:
"Those of you who picked up this book cold, even though it’s clearly part two of a series."
Even MAX has been confused about the order! Does anyone know what's going on with my copy?
This is what my copy looks like:
And one last note, the book 4 that I picked up is Nevermore, which is SUPPOSED to be book EIGHT!
