THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING MAZE RUNNER SERIES • “[A] mysterious survival saga that passionate fans describe as a fusion of Lord of the Flies [and] The Hunger Games” (Entertainment Weekly)

WICKED has taken everything from Thomas: his life, his memories, and now his only friends—the Gladers. But it’s finally over. The trials are complete, after one final test.

What WICKED doesn’t know is that Thomas remembers far more than they think. And it’s enough to prove that he can’t believe a word of what they say.

Thomas beat the Maze. He survived the Scorch. He’ll risk anything to save his friends. But the truth might be what ends it all.

The time for lies is over.

The first two books, The Maze Runner and The Scorch Trials, are also #1 worldwide blockbuster movies featuring the star of MTV's Teen Wolf, Dylan O'Brien; Kaya Scodelario; Aml Ameen; Will Poulter; and Thomas Brodie-Sangster!

like a TV series ending

I'll give the last 2 books a "eh" . kind of disappointed from such a interesting start. makes the middle book all but useless imo.

Dark and not very satisfying

I will warn before I get into any spoilers. But man, this book just did not do it for me. Also, the narrator was very good, fantastic performance!
If you have ever read Harry Potter, then you know what a satisfying ending looks like.
(Spoilers)
While I thought that series was pretty harsh in terms of unnecessary deaths, it pales in comparison to this series-ending novel. Turns out that basically all the bull the characters have to put up with was all for naught. And characters needlessly die because Thomas is kind of a bonehead.
(Major Spoilers)
There is no cure and never will be and it is never satisfyingly explained exactly how these “variables” were supposed to help them figure out a cure.
I would have liked to see some resolution whereby Teresa makes amends with Thomas. They know they will never be the same but at least they can still take comfort in knowing that each is well and alive. But nope, she gets flattened by debris cause Thomas is too distracted by his rage and she has to kill herself to save him cause he stands gawking at a collapsing ceiling like that one kid from the original spider man movie (at the parade). Bren is a fine character, not sure if Jorge made it through (if he died I missed it but he doesnt make an appearance near the end)

Death Cure?

Slightly miss leading is the title, but all and all I'll have to give this one a four-star.

While I enjoyed books one and two, I couldn't help but feel there was a bit missing from the plot of this one. For example: What did the Gladers learn from their past once they got the memories back? Why did Thomas fight so hard to get his, but in the end say no? Character development being his ultimate decision? Possibly, but I cant help but feel that fell short of what it could have been?

All the same, performances as great and the storyline was enjoyable. I can't complain that it was time well spent.

Good, could have been great

I hoped for a more meaningful resolution to WICKED and development of the Ava Paige character. These did not happen and left the finish thin and somewhat unsatisfying. Yhe performance was excellent until near end, when MinHo and Gali had some hispanic accents mixed into their voices.

Better the 2nd time

I had listened to it early and did not enjoy it.

The 2nd the story made for better enterianment.
