The Scorch Trials/James Dashner/361 pgs




This is the second title in the "Maze Runner" series and I can't say that I enjoyed the story but will continue to read the series to find out what happens. Thomas and his friends from the Glade thought they were saved but little did they know that was only phase 1 of the test and phase 2 - The Scorch Trials - was going to be even worse. They have to travel 100 miles through a very hot and dry wasteland to reach the Safe Haven to receive the cure for the Flash. They also find out that there is a second set of kids - all girls - that is taking these same tests. This story is very violent - hard to imagine at times that this is supposed to be a YA title. And the end leaves you wondering what else they can put these kids through.
