I like this book because it has the most betrayals so far in the books . I couldn't believe that Teresa betrays Thomas.

Book two 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!
Thomas was sure that escape from the Maze would mean freedom for him and the Gladers. But WICKED isn’t done yet. Phase Two has just begun. The Scorch.
The Gladers have two weeks to cross through the Scorch—the most burned-out section of the world. And WICKED has made sure to adjust the variables and stack the odds against them.
There are others now. Their survival depends on the Gladers’ destruction—and they’re determined to survive.
Friendships will be tested. Loyalties will be broken. All bets are off.
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!

It's a cool story in a dramatic future. If the world is going to be as in this book, I don't know how we will get out of the trouble...
This one is the one I like best because you can't stop once you start and it gets more and more interesting! I love the maze runner series.
Sequel to 'The Maze Runner'. I read this even faster than the first one because you never stop reading it. Great book for everyone from ages 10-20. Even younger and older people enjoy this original one-of-a-kind book. Some of my friends recommended it to me, and I loved it, so now I'm recommending it to you!
I've heard that James Dashner is a really cool author, so I'm looking forward to reading this!
GREAT SEQUEL TO AWSOME BOOK
love it

the best read it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the second book in the Maze Runner Trilogy. It kept me on the edge of my seat. It was not for people with weak stomach, because it was kind of gross. It also scared me a little bit.
This was a really good book.It was a good mix of action and horror and the series is really good.I would recommend this to any middle school kids.
