The First Book in a New Series Set 73 Years After The Maze Runner

Seventy-three years after the events of THE DEATH CURE, when Thomas and other immunes were sent to an island to survive the Flare-triggered apocalypse, their descendants have thrived. Sadina, Isaac, and Jackie all learned about the unkind history of the Gladers from The Book of Newt and tall tales from Old Man Frypan, but when a rusty old boat shows up one day with a woman bearing dark news of the mainland—everything changes. The group and their islander friends are forced to embark back to civilization where they find Cranks have evolved into a more violent, intelligent version of themselves. They are hunted by the Godhead, the Remnant Nation, and scientists with secret agendas. When they cross paths with an orphan named Minho from the Remnant Nation, the dangers become real and they don't know who they can trust. The islanders will have to survive long enough to figure out why they are being targeted, who is friend or foe, and what the Godhead has planned for the future of humanity.

okay

didn't have the original feel, I think as a stand alone story it's great, but it's probably not going to get a reread

good

I like the book, a good series as well. I do recommend it to others.

Meh

The story is quite meh and all over the place. The book’s predecessors were a lot better.

a fresh start

it doesn't feel complicated even in a trilogy but I enjoyed it, can't wait till they all come out

Good book but a bit of a let down.

I had a hard time connecting with some of the characters because this story felt a little rushed. Some plot points were very important to the world of Maze Runner but they were left unexplained, which was disappointing. Nonetheless this book is still a good listen. I still liked most of the characters and the plot for the most part. It’s just some small things throughout it that left me confused.
