Book one in the blockbuster Maze Runner series that spawned a movie franchise and ushered in a worldwide phenomenon! And don’t miss The Fever Code, the highly-anticipated series conclusion that finally reveals the story of how the maze was built!
When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his name. He’s surrounded by strangers—boys whose memories are also gone.
Outside the towering stone walls that surround them is a limitless, ever-changing maze. It’s the only way out—and no one’s ever made it through alive.
Then a girl arrives. The first girl ever. And the message she delivers is terrifying: Remember. Survive. Run.
The Maze Runner and Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials are now major motion pictures featuring the star of MTV's Teen Wolf, Dylan O’Brien; Kaya Scodelario; Aml Ameen; Will Poulter; and Thomas Brodie-Sangster. The third movie, Maze Runner: The Death Cure, will hit screens in 2018.
Also look for James Dashner’s edge-of-your-seat MORTALITY DOCTRINE series!

its amazing fun to read. you would never want to put it down
This is a good book...
I haven't read this book yet, but it sounds really good. I also hear the movie is coming out soon.
5 stars
I agree Angelina Jadulal, better then maybe even Divergent.
You've read Hunger Games?? Well this is better. =)
Good, yet the beginning took a while to get interesting. This book is in a series yet I believe that this book is better as a stand alone.
This book is a little animated and violent,but over all it is a good book.It is about a boy who finds himself in a maze,after losing his memory.He tries to get out of it....but is the real world really better than what he has now?
Best Book ever, I might even say better than The Hunger Games and Divergent, The Maze Runner is the best, The Scorch Trials is good, but The Death Cure is not as good, like the last book in many trilogies.
