The Maze Runner

Author: James Dashner

In a world turned upside down, Thomas wakes up in a mysterious elevator, memories wiped clean. He’s thrust into the Glade, a sprawling enclosure surrounded by towering stone walls that shift and change each night. Surrounded by other boys who share his confusion, Thomas must unravel the secrets of the Maze that imprisons them. As he pieces together fragments of his past, he realizes their survival depends on his ability to lead them out. But escape may come at a terrible cost, and the truth waiting beyond the walls could be even more terrifying than the Maze itself.

If you ain’t scared… you ain’t human.
