As Good As Hunger Games?


The Maze Runner:
by James Dashner
The book I have recently read is The Maze Runner by James Dashner. The book is a very mysterious, and enjoyable book. The main character is Thomas who was sent to the Glade by the Creators. The glade is a man-made mysterious place for the kids that were sent to there after an apocalyptic disease has struck the earth. The other kids that were sent to the glade feel that Thomas has some kind of connection with the creators and the only girl, that ironically, was sent there day after he arrived. This was strange because one new kid usually came evey month. One of the problems between the kids is trust. The walls moving and the grieved machines that try to sting the characters that are trying to escape the maze, are also big obsticals to get back to home.

I recommend this book to anyone that likes a science fiction mystery book. This book will leave you hanging, and make you want to read more. I really enjoyed this book and I think everyone else will too

    I would like to agree with Dalton he is right this trilogy is great especially if you liked the hunger games since all the books have a different style plot it's better.
