This book is the second in a trilogy of ‘The Maze Runner’ books. It takes place after the end of the maze
runner when they escape into what is now the world. Plagued by disease and sun flares that have
destroyed our world, it is not what they expected after escaping the horrors of the maze WCKD has put
them through. WCKD (World in Catastrophe Kill Zone Department) has a plan for them but they don’t
know it yet. They are taken to what they think is a safe place but turns out to be another one of WCKD’s
experiments. Waking up to disease crazy people banging on your window is not the best situation. And
it gets worse when they are given the news that this is just another one of WCKD’s experiments and
they are the test subjects. Their long journey continues on a trip of loss, heartbreak, betrayal and danger
as realize the world they were so excited to see is not what they expected.
