Summary (from Horizon)
After surviving horrific conditions in the Maze, Thomas is entrapped, along with nineteen other boys, in a scientific experiment designed to observe their responses and gather data believed to be essential for the survival of the human race.
Personal Thoughts
That summary absolutely does not do this book justice. In fact, if the book jacket summary hadn't been so long I would have copied that one. The Maze Runner was a fabulous book and The Scorch Trials is a fitting sequel. The characters are splendid, the scenery is described (but not to death), and the plot is fantastic and mystifying all at the same time. WICKED, while they keep saying they're good, are just...well...wicked-sounding. Although, without being a spoiler, this novel throws in some bizarre flashback twists that will blow your mind! If you liked The Maze Runner, you'll love The Scorch Trials.
