About This Book

When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his name. He's surrounded by strangers—boys whose memories are also gone.

Outside the towering stone walls that surround the Glade is a limitless, ever-changing maze. It's the only way out—and no one's ever made it through alive. Everything is going to change. Then a girl arrives. The first girl ever. And the message she delivers is terrifying. Remember. Survive. Run. The Gladers have always been convinced that if they can solve the maze that surrounds their living space they will find their way home. But Thomas's arrival sets events in motion that will change everything.

Why Hunger Games Fans Will Love It

Like The Hunger Games, The Maze Runner features teens trapped in a deadly survival scenario created by adults. The mystery, constant danger, and themes of friendship and sacrifice in the face of an impossible situation will appeal to readers who loved Katniss's fight for survival and truth.
