Maze Runner
Published: October 6, 2009 by Delacorte Press 

If you ain’t scared, you ain’t human.

When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his name. He’s surrounded by strangers—boys whose memories are also gone.


Nice to meet ya, shank. Welcome to the Glade.


Outside the towering stone walls that surround the Glade is a limitless, ever-changing maze. It’s the only way out—and no one’s ever made it through alive.

Everything is going to change.

Then a girl arrives. The first girl ever. And the message she delivers is terrifying.

Remember. Survive. Run.


Scorch Trial
Published: October 12, 2010 by Delacorte Press

Solving the Maze was supposed to be the end. 

Thomas was sure that escape from the Maze would mean freedom for him and the Gladers. But WICKED isn’t done yet. Phase Two has just begun. The Scorch. 

There are no rules. There is no help. You either make it or you die.

The Gladers have two weeks to cross through the Scorch—the most burned-out section of the world. And WICKED has made sure to adjust the variables and stack the odds against them. 

Friendships will be tested. Loyalties will be broken. All bets are off. 

There are others now. Their survival depends on the Gladers’ destruction—and they’re determined to survive.


Death Cure

It’s the end of the line.

WICKED has taken everything from Thomas: his life, his memories, and now his only friends—the Gladers. But it’s finally over. The trials are complete, after one final test.

Will anyone survive?

What WICKED doesn’t know is that Thomas remembers far more than they think. And it’s enough to prove that he can’t believe a word of what they say.

The truth will be terrifying.

Thomas beat the Maze. He survived the Scorch. He’ll risk anything to save his friends. But the truth might be what ends it all. 

The time for lies is over.


To Kill Order
Published:  August 14, 2012 by Delacorte Press

The prequel to the New York Times bestselling Maze Runner series.

Before WICKED was formed, before the Glade was built, before Thomas entered the Maze, sun flares hit the earth and mankind fell to disease.

Mark and Trina were there when it happened, and they survived. But surviving the sun flares was easy compared to what came next. Now a disease of rage and lunacy races across the eastern United States, and there’s something suspicious about its origin. Worse yet, it’s mutating, and all evidence suggests that it will bring humanity to its knees.

Mark and Trina are convinced there’s a way to save those left living from descending into madness. And they’re determined to find it—if they can stay alive. Because in this new, devastated world, every life has a price. And to some, you’re worth more dead than alive.

The Fever Code
Published:  September 27, 2016 by Delacorte Press

Once there was a world’s end.

The forests burned, the lakes and rivers dried up, and the oceans swelled.

Then came a plague, and fever spread across the globe. Families died, violence reigned, and man killed man.

Next came WICKED, who were looking for an answer. And then they found the perfect boy.

The boy’s name was Thomas, and Thomas built a maze.

Now there are secrets.

There are lies.

And there are loyalties history could never have foreseen.

This is the story of that boy, Thomas, and how he built a maze that only he could tear down.

All will be revealed.

My Own Review:

Maze Runner is one of my favorite Dystopian series, this book really made my heart race, a real page turner and will not make you sleep at night. The time you spent reading this is so worth it.

Many can compare Maze Runner to Hunger Games as first, they say they are the same, no guys, a big NO, they are both Dystopian but they are very different, so, so different. So don't believe about that crap and start reading this heart-pacing story, otherwise you're regret it.

Movie versus the Book. The Book is still better. The first movie is alright, although they killed Gally (Ooops spoiler), but the second is worst because my favorite part about Brenda and Thomas's adventure is missing and Jorge, my sweet favorite Jorge, they took him out of  the picture. I want Jorge, I love him and I miss him. How dare you not show him? He's a great character. And they never took Minho in the Book for crying out loud! And I even heard that they're going to kill Minho on the third movie than Newt! Oh, I'm going to bash the Director's ass. See guys? The book is better, so, so much better. They made me weep! Not my Minho!!!!

Then 2019 update, the final movie they've released is still bad (Sigh).
