This is a good fixit job excellently executed. After the house of M story the millions of mutants were reduced to a few hundred, with all the others mysteriously depowered. After that event the x-men writers at the time did little with the issue, sure they covered the mutants being rounded up into a reservation etc but no one showed what the mutants were doing to reverse the situation. Nearly two years on and Mike Carey shows us just what Beast has been up to. So we have 17 six page chapters showing Beasts investigations and the depths he would sink to in order to save his species. Which is the highlight of the story, its a shame that this wasnt started sooner and mixed with other ongoing stories.
The art is impressively consistant despite there being at least three different artists on the story.

There's still the stigma attached to superhero comics that they must all be bombastic, over-the-top action scene vessels and Endangered Species eschews much of this. A character study of a character who too often gets relegated to "the brain of the group" and is simply written off as a scientist type.
An especially intriguing part is seeing the other-dimensional variants of the Beast, particularly the one that turned to religion, and how this reflects on the character we're reading about. More a character study, highly reccomended for fans of the character, lightly reccomended for others.

This 17-part series was originally released in eight-page segements across MARVEL's four major X-books (Uncanny X-men, X-factor, New X-men, and X-men). Thankfully, the publisher chose to spare readers any extra cost, because this was pretty useless.
I have collected Mike Carey's run on X-men (now X-men: Legacy) thus far. This includes Endangered Species chapters 1, 5, 9, 13, 16 and 17. I have only read these parts of the story, and despite the gaps I didn't miss a thing. It felt as though there were no gaps at all, and every chapter was essentially the same. Beast starts his quest and ends his quest and not much happens in between.
If you really need to know what went down, I highly suggest you read the Wikipedia entry for it. This trade release is made for completists ONLY; people who almost certainly bought this as backup chapters in the process of collecting their comics. So really, this book is for no one.

beast trying to save mutants really he's so desperate that he's willing to deal with sinister, spiral, and sugarman even well the dark beast shows up here and him and hank has a battle of morals trying to see how far should one go or really sell his soul to achieve something.

This was meant as a sub-sub plot in the series, it just happened to be long enough to fit a hardcover
dont be fooled, it's ALL Beast, all the time. Really, nothing happens.
NOTHING. PLEASE DONT BUY THIS
he tries to fix 'no more mutants', he fails. Nothing happened
