The Maze was just phase one, the Gladers now have to embark on phase two – The Scorch Trials. That is until after just one night in safety, a disease ridden dribbling man appears at their dormitory window demanding that they kill him! This is the start of a whole new set of problems and trials. ![]() Thomas and his friends have escaped their nightmare and are now safe, ready to start a new life. So on to book number two in the trilogy – The Scorch Trials.Ģ0 children of varying ages Thomas, Teresa, Newt, Minho and the rest of the surviving Gladers have escaped the Maze, their forced imprisonment and the Grievers with their blubbering bodies and metal arms and spikes, into the relative safety of adults, albeit in a desolated world. Whilst it is an excellent story of how a group of boys must work together to figure out and escape a massive maze the story never reached a conclusion once the children where rescued. ![]() James Dashner’s The Maze Runner is an excellent dystopian sci-fi novel, perfectly suited for the young adult (YA) readership although adults will enjoy it as well. ![]()
