The Death Cure
Maze Runner - Book 3
*Spoilers if you haven't read the first two!
You know those books or TV shows where everyone dies? This is pretty much one of those.
and it's amazing!
Just like The Scorch Trials, this one picks up right where we left our boys and the gang. While they made it to the "safe haven" like they were told to do for a cure, WICKED didn't exactly tell the full truth. No surprise there. WICKED hasn't found a cure yet, but they are still in the process. Tracking every move and decision these kids make will help WICKED eventually find a cure. Isn't that nice of them.
So Thomas and his friends have decided they have had enough. No more will they be pawns in a never ending game of "when am I going to die?". They are going to escape from WICKED and try to find somewhere safe to live out their days.
If only it was that easy.
With some returning characters, some missing characters, remembered memories and the one page us in the fandom do not speak of ... prepare yourself for a whirlwind of lies, running, tears and heartbreak as Thomas finally realizes what he comes to love above anything else: his friends.
I think this one is my favourite of the series so far. We get a lot of the puzzle pieces from WICKED, we see a lot more of the kids interacting with each other as oppose to just running for their lives (even though they do a lot of that too), and who doesn't love twists and turns all over the place? Dashner has this way of writing that you cannot help but fall in love with. It's short and snappy, yet the plot twits and dramatic flare of his characters is so on point and delivered right on time.
I am sure this is not the end because I still cannot decide if I agree that WICKED is good.
P.S If a friend hands you a note, read it once they've left the room.
