Wicked has robbed Thomas of everything: his life, his memories, and now his only friends... the Glades. But it's finally over. The experiments are complete after one final test. What Wicked doesn't know is that Thomas remembers more than they realize—enough to convince him not to believe a word they say. Thomas has overcome the complexities of the Maze, survived the scorched Earth, and will risk everything to save his friends. But the truth may end it all. No more lies. Spoiler alert: Read "The Maze Runner" first. "An epic tale of atmospheric mystery that has inspired fans to describe it as a cross between Lord of the Flies, The Hunger Games, and Lost." - Entertainment Weekly "A breathtaking cinematic atmosphere." - Publishers Weekly “You need to take a deep breath before you start reading any of James Dashner’s works.”
