I love reading series and since I did The Kill Order (Prequel to The Maze Runner) by James Dashner yesterday, Today I am going to show #2 The Scorch Trials. Enjoy!

The Scorch Trials
Teaser:
"So... it's not a cure? Even though it slows the virus down?"
"Not even close. Just delays the inevitable. The Flare always wins in the end.You lose any chance of being rational, having common sense, having compassion. You lose your humanity." pg. 204
"Teresa didn't hesitate. She wrapped her arms around Thomas's neck, pulling him in. He didn't have enough will to resist. They kissed, but nothing stirred inside Thomas. He felt nothing." pg. 313
Goodreads Info:
Solving the Maze was supposed to be the end. No more puzzles. No more variables. And no more running. Thomas was sure that escape meant he and the Gladers would get their lives back. But no one really knew what sort of life they were going back to.In the Maze, life was easy. They had food, and shelter, and safety . . . until Teresa triggered the end. In the world outside the Maze, however, the end was triggered long ago.
Burned by sun flares and baked by a new, brutal climate, the earth is a wasteland. Government has disintegrated—and with it, order—and now Cranks, people covered in festering wounds and driven to murderous insanity by the infectious disease known as the Flare, roam the crumbling cities hunting for their next victim . . . and meal.
The Gladers are far from finished with running. Instead of freedom, they find themselves faced with another trial. They must cross the Scorch, the most burned-out section of the world, and arrive at a safe haven in two weeks. And WICKED has made sure to adjust the variables and stack the odds against them.
Thomas can only wonder—does he hold the secret of freedom somewhere in his mind? Or will he forever be at the mercy of WICKED?
This sounds intense. Thanks for sharing it.

ReplyDeleteSounds good. I read the first one but I didn't really like it but maybe I should give the series anothe try. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow - great Teaser! I've read The Maze Runner and can't wait to get my hands on The Scorch Trials. It seems from your teaser that Thomas doesn't get the sparks when he kisses her - that's a shock! D:
