[Solving the Maze was supposed
to be the end. No more puzzles.
And no more running. Thomas
was sure that escaping meant
he would get his life back. But
no one knew what sort of life
they were going back to ...
Burned and baked, the earth is
a wasteland, its people driven
mad by an infection known as
the Flare.
Instead of freedom, Thomas must
face another trial. He must cross
the Scorch to once again save
himself and his friends ...]
Woahh, this series is amazing. I seriously cannot wait to find out what happens in the final instalment.
It was just as tense as The Maze Runner, if not more. The main characters are still in it and going strong. Although, there were a few moments when it was unknown if the odd one of these characters were still alive or not under the circumstances.
But I absolutely loved all of the different creature-y things and adverse conditions that were included - they're all so different and fresh, it's part of what makes it such a great read.
I liked the addition of Brenda. I think, amongst all of the abnormal challenges Thomas has to face, it's nice to see him have to face something so normal - his guilt for being attracted to Brenda when he's not entirely sure of his feelings for Teresa.
I think Minho has become my new favourite character; he's funny and brave and his and Thomas's friendship is great. I was a little disappointed with Thomas and Teresa's relationship development, but there's still room for it to happen in the next one.
The ending was brilliant, so action packed and as mysterious as ever. We still don't know what the truth is or what isn't, just like Thomas, so I hope all is revealed in the final one!
And have I said how much I love that Thomas isn't afraid to show his emotions, all of his emotions? It's so refreshing to see a male character, and the hero at that, crying like a proper human being, like any sixteen year old would if they were put through all of those horrific trials!
