The scorch Trails

 
 
The Scorch Trials picks up where The Maze Runner left off. The Gladers have escaped the Maze, but now they face an even more treacherous challenge on the open roads of a devastated planet.
And WICKED has made sure to adjust the variables and stack the odds against them.
Can Thomas survive in such a violent world?
 
My review
 
The Scorch Trials are full of excitement and action. Never in the book is their a dull moment or peace for the main character. The gladers escape from the treacherous Maze only to be thrown into something mush worse. James Dashner is able to put twist and turns in this book to make it seem like its not just about finishing the trials, but betrayal and friendship. However subtle it may be there is also a little bit of romance in it as well.
 
I would give this book three stars. Even though it was good and well written, this book is not for everyone. if you didn't like the maze runner then your not going to like the second book anymore than you did the first one. 

The maze runner

The Maze runner by James Dashner.

The first book in the New York Times bestselling Maze Runner series—The Maze Runner is a modern classic, perfect for fans of The Hunger Games and Divergent.

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 was expected. But the next day, a girl is sent up—the first girl to ever arrive in the Glade. And more surprising yet is the message she delivers.

Thomas might be more important than he could ever guess. If only he could unlock the dark secrets buried within his mind.
