Short but worth the cost of a daily deal!

I enjoyed the Maze Runner series by James Dashner.
I was looking for other books by this author, but I was uncertain about the Eye of Minds series.

I bought this precursor (book 1.5) as a daily deal.
It has definitely captured my interest. I did not want this short book to end.
Now I am very eager to hear the Eye of Minds series!

For a Novela : this was a cool Back story

My students have read this series, cause I made them in class. They loved and kept thinking that Gunner Skale was actual Kane. They will be glad to know the true story !!

Best series of books I’ve read to date

Book is a fun story correlating with the main series in interesting ways. Also confusing when trying to compare them but fun and interesting all the same. The main series is amazing too.

Awesome again!

Hooked from start to finish! More plz! Thanx Eric. Thanx James! Keep them coming! Faithful fan!

Already Hooked!!!

Couldn't wait to start the Next Book!!
Absolutely loved Maze runner and James didn't stop on this page turner.

Eye of a short story

This is an origin story of Gunner skale. Entertaining yet not enough details to keep me interested.

In a movie, this would be the first 5 minutes

Not a bad prequel/short story, but after finishing the series I'd say this doesn't make much sense. This definitely is not worth spending a whole credit on, the price tag is cheap so it may be worth a quick read after the first book in the series as a prequel, but I wouldn't say it contributes much to the series.

disappointed - not worth 1 credit

I got exited. Trilled hearing the same narrator. And the promising start of probably a great story. Then it ended :( - I was hoping to hear more of who he was. Now I know he is a gamer that become a tangent. Nothing more, and very disappointing. If I could I would return it.
