Before the Dawn
Book Description
If you don’t know the show: take one kick-ass, bike-riding genetically-modified girl, created in a government laboratory to become the perfect soldier. Let her escape from the lab and put her on the streets. Throw in more genetically-modified 'siblings' who she tries to locate and pit them against sinister and corrupt government forces. Light torch paper, stand back.If you do know the show: this novel fills in some of the gaps from the ten years between Max’s escape from Manticore in 2009 and her current adventures in Seattle in 2019. We meet for the first time Original Cindy, Sketchy, Kendra and Normal, as well as Lydecker and Logan Cale.We see Max working as a cat-burglar in Los Angeles, and then moving to Seattle where she meets various figures from her past and future, and gets involved with a multi-millionaire art collector. The book culminates in a thrilling confrontation at the top of the Seattle Space Needle, where one of Max’s siblings dies in order to save her.
Synopsis
Los Angeles, 2019. Large sections of Tinseltown are in Richter-scale ruins in the aftermath of the Pulse and a devastating earthquake. Surviving among a pack of street kids, agile as a cat, and an expert thief, Max steals from the rich and gives to Moody, her mentor in crime and leader.
I've finished this one! Fabulous!
Skin Game
Book Description
The saga of Dark Angel continues!
Someone is killing normal humans in the fog-enshrouded city of Seattle. The murders are brutal and grisly, but inside Terminal City they barely cause a ripple of concern. The transgenics who live there have problems of their own. In an area under siege by the oppressive arm of the police, the transgenics must protect their fledgling colony against the outside world - a world that eyes them with contempt and suspicion . . . and will do anything to be rid of them.
As the killings escalate, Joshua comes to Max with a dire suspicion: the killer may be one of their own. Tensions are high between normal humans and transgenics, and many inside the protected City would just as soon let the humans fend for themselves. Yet Max and her inner circle know they must investigate the crimes and stop the bloodshed. Doing nothing would simply give the normals more reasons to hate.
But what they discover will shock even the most jaded among them - and expose a sinister agenda that leads to an old, nefarious foe. . . .

Not again! Don't call me TB plz plz!
Dark Angel is telling a story of a genetically-modified girl, Max, in the future. After successfully escaping from somewhere(I've forgatten the name), where all X-5s were trained as killing mashines, Max began to know lots of things she didn't at that place, and knew many true friends who are willling to help her to fight for her life and justice. I can't explain the whole story 2 u coz I live in hostfamily, i.e. I missed a lot of episodes. If u really like it, I'll try to collect as much information as I can.

This is Logan, another name for him is EYE'S ONLY, Max's exboyfriend, coz Max's got a kind of virus which doesn't allow her to kiss him(excuse me?)
Premise from website: In the near future, the United States has been rocked by a terrorist attack in the form of electromagnetic pulses. The result is a complete meltdown of all technology which turns the country into a chaotic third-world area. Taking advantage of this chaos are the X-5s, a group of genetically engineered children brought up under the rigid tutelage of Manticore, a government genetics corporation. Designed to be the perfect soldiers from birth, the X-5s were raised as adult killers in a militaristic compound.
However, during the terrorist attacks, most of the X-5s escaped from Manticore and split up all over the country. They are now on the run from Manticore agents, Lydekker and the mysterious Madam X. They have superior strength, intelligence, and senses and must use all of these to remain safe and hidden.
Character Bios:
MAX GUEVARRA: Masquerading as a normal young woman working in a messenger service in Seattle, Max has managed to establish more roots and relationships than her fellow sibling X-5s. Unfortunately, these friendships and loves often make her more vulnerable and apt to risk her life.
With a sharp cynical nature and an often biting tongue, Max has a tough exterior, but she is nonetheless fiercely loyal to her friends and family. She is very sensitive about her genetically enhanced status and constantly fights to prove to herself and others that she is not the ruthless killer Manticore intended her to be. One of the results of this is that she will never use a gun, instead preferring to use her superhuman skills in physical combat.
The Little Max
The grown-up Max
Max often remembers her childhood, and the painful memories of merciless violence and control shape her grudgingly moral actions now.
