The Scorch Trials

Thomas was sure that escape from the maze meant he would get his life back. But no one knew what sort of life they were going back to. The earth is a wasteland with people driven mad by an infection known as the Flare. Instead of freedom, Thomas must face another trial. He must cross the Scorch to once again save himself and his friends.

After escaping the Maze, Thomas and the Gladers thought they had found a way to reclaim their lives. Little did they know, their ordeal was far from over. In The Scorch Trials by James Dashner, the Gladers emerge into a world that has drastically changed. The earth has become a barren wasteland, overrun by extreme weather and plagued by the devastating Flare virus.

Society has collapsed. Government and order no longer exist, leaving chaos in their wake. The infected, known as Cranks, roam the desolate cities, stripped of their sanity and driven by a rabid hunger, posing a dire threat to every survivor.

As Thomas navigates this treacherous new world, he's confronted with even more questions. Does he hold the key to freedom within his memories, or will he remain a pawn in the hands of WICKED, the organisation behind the Maze experiments?

The sequel to The Maze Runner, The Scorch Trials is an adrenaline-fuelled adventure that pushes the Gladers to their limits. Faced with brutal trials and harrowing dangers, Thomas must rely on his wit and the newfound alliances to survive. Fast-paced and full of suspense, this gripping novel explores themes of survival, trust, and the quest for identity in a post-apocalyptic world.

Dive into The Scorch Trials, and join Thomas as he fights against overwhelming odds in a bid for salvation, holding on to hope in the most dire of times.
