Review Detail

This was a brilliant sequel to the amazing Maze Runner. This books is set outside the maze where the stakes are even higher. This book was just as good as the Maze Runner, maybe even better. WIth a great plot and stunning characters, this The Scorch Trials is a book that is so worth reading.

The Scorch Trials takes place straight after Maze Runner. The Gladers had escaped from WICKED and taken away by a group against WICKED. Outside the Maze, the world is dying. The government has disappeared, and now Cranks, people infected by a disease known as the flare, are roaming the crumbling cities in search of their next meal. The Gladers think that the Variables are over and they can leave, but they are faced with another task: They must cross the Scorch, the burned-out section of the world, and at the other side is a safe heaven which they must reach in two weeks. But the odds are stacked against and they can only wonder if they will ever survive.

In the Scorch Trials, you get to know some of the characters that were the whole time but not mentioned that much. Some of the personalities change as people take sides and reality dawns upon them. The plot is just as good, maybe even better. I loved this book, especially the creep factor. If you love creepy, futuristic worlds inside a book, then this is so for you.
