The Maze Runner Trilogy by James Dashner -Brief review


A short review of The Maze Runner Trilogy by James Dashner by Gerrie Dine Bii

Been reading a YA Series called, The Maze Runner Trilogy by James Dashner all week and its really unique compared to the lot that's been coming out lately.


Giving it a 4/5 because I cant think of a reason why it should be 3/5.
If I were to describe it then the closest thing I can compare it to is The Lord of The Flies (a bit of World War Z too).

I think the three things that shaped my ideas for this story the most are: The books ENDER'S GAME and LORD OF THE FLIES, and the TV show LOST." ~James Dashner
Some fans of The Hunger Games say it's a copycat but let me assure you bookworms its NOT. That's what overlly obsessed fans would say. Anyway, I found it highly entertaining.
Im sorry that I cant give you a full summary. I'm afraid I might give away too much which would ruin the whole trilogy for you. Its better to enjoy it as it is. An amazing journey.
The Maze Runner Trilogy:
1. The Maze Runner
2. The Scorch Trials
3. Death Cure
*Prequel- The Kill Order*
