REVIEW: The Maze Runner by James Dashner

Hello Everyone,

Title: The Maze Runner

Author: James Dashner (dashnerarmy.com)
Genere: Fantasy/Adventure/Dystopian
ISBN: 0385737947
My Rating: 3/5

In honour of the release of The Scorch Trials (the second instalment in The Maze Runner series) coming out soon I decided to finally give in and give these books a read! I only recently watched The Maze Runner and I really enjoyed it so I decided to give the books a read to see if I would enjoy them! The answer? So far the first one has been amazing! I don't think that I am going to marathon this series because I have so many books on my TBR shelf that I desperately want to read that I'm going to read a few of them first before I complete the series!

Basic Summary:

The Maze Runner is about a group of boys who arrive/live in an area called "the Glade" that is surrounded by a maze that moves and changes at night and where creatures called grievers roam. These boys arrive in the Glade one by one and they have no recollection of their past. The only thing that they can remember is their name (and general knowledge but they cannot recall anything particular to them) So when a boy named Thomas arrives at the Glade, things start to change. Firstly, a girl arrives. The first girl ever. As conflict between Thomas and the rest of the Gladers mounts. Thomas convinces a few of the allies that he has made that there has to be a way out and by following him, he will get them out of the Glade.

This books is an action-packed, adventure/dystopian book that is really intriguing and entertaining! This book has great plot and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it!

This is the first book in The Maze Runner series. The second book is The Scorch Trials, followed by The Death Cure and the prequel, The Kill Order

Have you read these books? What would you rate them?
