Mouse Trap: lookin for the cheezzze
The Maze Runner by James Dasher, is a non-stop thriller,
that once you start reading it is impossible to put down (well at least in my
opinion). In my mind, it is a great cross between Lord of the Flies and Lost.
The book begins with Thomas waking up in a lift with no
memory but his own name. He emerges into the Glade, a large expanse enclosed by
stone walls. Every morning the walls open onto pathways leading to The Maze
and every night the walls close sealing the giant openings on every side. Everyday
members of the group try to find a way to escape from the Maze but have been unsuccessful
so far. The story takes on a sense of urgency when a girl arrives at the Glade with
a strange message. From this point the push is on for Thomas, to find out who
he is, why they are there and how to escape from the Maze…
At the end of the book, it is revealed that this is just one
of the many tests that the group will face. In fact the second book in the
series, The Scorch Trials, is coming out in October…
sequel?
