An Author Looks Beyond Age Limits.

The article focuses on the best-selling author James Patterson and his "Maximum Ride" book series for teenagers. Patterson's adult thrillers sell far better than this series, and he has devised a different marketing strategy for his latest work in it "Maximum Ride: The Final Warning." Patterson's publisher Little, Brown has asked booksellers to display the book alongside Patterson's adult titles in the front of their stores, hoping the teenagers' mothers will purchase it.
