#The maze runner books series#
The books center on Thomas, a 16-year-old boy with no memory of life before the Maze, the friends he makes in the Glade, and their struggles to survive a series of deadly tests and overthrow the corporation running them. It’s one overarching story broken into three separate books, each with its own plot: The Maze Runner, The Scorch Trials, The Death Cure. Teens (ages 12 – 18) are the target audience, although many adults are reading these books right along with them. It explores many themes that resonate with this generation such as humanity, change, and the greater good. It’s a fast-paced adrenaline rush that leaves its readers gasping for breath.
