The Maze Runner
By James Dashner
I started reading “The Maze Runner”..
Thomas wakes up in an elevator with no memory of his past other than his name. He discovers that he is in the Glade. The glade in full of young boys, it is run by Ably and Newt. Outside the glade is a giant maze. Inside the maze there is terrifying monsters like the Grievers. The boys are stuck in the glade trying to stay alive as well as trying to escape the maze by running through it. Then, a day after Thomas's arrival, a girl is delivered through the elevator into the Glade. She is the first girl to arrive in the Glade, When she arrives she starts mumbling strange words and then lapses into a coma. Thomas has a feeling like he knows her but keeps it to himself.
So far this is a really great book, I'm enjoying it a lot. It is very exciting and interesting. I cant wait to find out how the story ends.
When I was reading this book I found it quite strange that supplies also arrive in the elevator with the new children, as if the goal was to survive, any yet there was no sign of outside presence anywhere. Do you know anything more about this yet? Has anything been mentioned?
ReplyDeleteThe book is not only about survival, but also about these kids trying to find out their lost memories and find a way out the maze.
ReplyDeleteWhy are the boys brought into the maze? For what purpose?
