Book four 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!
 
   Before WICKED was formed, before the Glade was built, before Thomas entered the Maze, sun flares hit the earth, killing most of the population.
   Mark and Trina were there when it happened. They survived. But now a virus is spreading. A virus that fills humans with murderous rage.
   They’re convinced that there’s a way to save those who are left—if they can stay alive. Because in this new, devastated world, every life has a price. And to some you’re worth more dead than alive.
   The end is only the beginning.

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!

This...is...the...best book I have ever read...THANK YOU JAMES DASHER!!!

Unfortunately, I didn't really like this prequel to the trilogy which I really loved, but I guess The Kill Order just wasn't for me. I really loved the first two books because they were action packed and made me eager to turn the page for more (I couldn't stop reading), but I disliked the ending of the third book and read the prequel to see if it was better than The Death Cure, but I really don't need a lot of violence in a book. I think this book was just too violent for me, but there were several points that I liked: one, Alec, the old soldier in the book. He was all hero-like and a father figure to the group, and two, the book introduced me to more characters and history of how the Flares broke out. Still, I think the first two books were way better than this one.

oh my gosh IT was WAS AWESOME ya but still i like the first one a tad more

I read the first 3 but I have not read this one

This...is...the...best book I have ever read...THANK YOU JAMES DASHER!
