This week I am discussing three books not one. I have finally finished reading the 'Maze Runner' trilogy by James Dashner.
Book number one - 'The Maze Runner' had me hooked from the beginning. I enjoyed the suspense, the pace and the action. I was just as lost as the characters, in wondering what was going on and I had to keep reading to find out what this world was all about and why these kids were placed in a maze without a memory of what went life was like before waking up in this strange new world.
Book number two - 'The Scorch Trials' contained even more action and adventure then the first. It also brought the realisation, that whenever you think you might be close to understanding everything, the story shifts and you are back at square one.
Book number three - 'The Death Cure' finally answers most questions. More action, suspense and adventure, but with answers
James Dashner keeps the reader in the dark for most of the series. Some readers may find this frustrating, but this technique kept me intrigued and wanting to find the answers. In other words I had to finish the series to scratch the itch of not not knowing. As with a lot of series, each book becomes darker and more violent. So prepare yourselves for a wild ride. Overall, an entertaining Dystopian series with an intriguing storyline, many plot twists and epic action scenes. Reserve your copy today.
