The Maze Runner
The Scorch Trials
The Death Cure
The Kill Order (Prequel)
My review: Seriously loved this series (I haven't read the prequel yet). It sucks you in and keeps you hooked. There is action, mystery, suspense, etc. There is a fair amount of fighting and violence some of which is fairly detailed. There isn't any language or adult themes.
Here is the Amazon write-up for the first book:
When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his first name. His memory is blank. But he’s not alone. When the lift’s doors open, Thomas finds himself surrounded by kids who welcome him to the Glade—a large, open expanse surrounded by stone walls.
Just like Thomas, the Gladers don’t know why or how they got to the Glade. All they know is that every morning the stone doors to the maze that surrounds them have opened. Every night they’ve closed tight. And every thirty days a new boy has been delivered in the lift.
Thomas might be more important than he could ever guess. If only he could unlock the dark secrets buried within his mind.
I enjoyed this series, but definitely not as much as Nate did.
ReplyDeleteThere is no language. but there is substitute language. The characters in the book have their own curse words.
I think this series is definitely more appealing to males than females.
I have read all four books. After finishing the third, I was frustrated with many questions left unanswered. These were questions the characters in the book toiled over, so it wasn't just something I wanted to know. I figured this was done strategically to allow for the prequel.
However, the prequel does not answer those questions. It does offer some more information, but I still feel frustrated by those questions when I think about it.
