The Death Cure (Maze Runner, Book Three) by James Dashner Book Summary

Don’t miss book three in the #1 New York Times bestselling Maze Runner series, now a major motion picture starring Dylan O’Brien!
 
WICKED has taken everything from Thomas: his life, his memories, and now his only friends—the Gladers. But it’s finally over. The trials are complete, after one final test.

What WICKED doesn’t know is that Thomas remembers far more than they think. And it’s enough to prove that he can’t believe a word of what they say.

Thomas beat the Maze. He survived the Scorch. He’ll risk anything to save his friends. But the truth might be what ends it all.

The time for lies is over.

The first two books, The Maze Runner and The Scorch Trials, are also #1 worldwide blockbuster movies featuring the star of MTV's Teen Wolf, Dylan O'Brien; Kaya Scodelario; Aml Ameen; Will Poulter; and Thomas Brodie-Sangster!

Also look for The Fever Code, the much-buzzed-about series conclusion that finally reveals the story of how the maze was built, and James Dashner's other bestselling series, the Mortality Doctrine: The Eye of Minds, The Rule of Thoughts, and The Game of Lives.

Great Series, Awful Ending. I really loved reading this whole series. It was exciting and brilliant. That is, until the ending. Not only was it rushed, and failed to answer many of the nagging questions that plagued readers, but it killed off the one character that shouldn't have been killed. Thomas was being irrational the whole book, and the ending did nothing but magnify that. Kudos to Dashner for coming up with the ideas for this brilliant series but honestly the ending was just plain horrible...he could have done so much better. A true disappointment.

Omg so good. It’s a great book one of the best I’ve ever read but the end kind of made me made like all of what they went through just for that like Spoiler: Newt 😭😭😭😭😭

FRICKING SPOILERS!!!. This was a really good book, but yeesh the spoilers in the reviews were annoying, he really didn’t have to kill so many characters. But over all it was good.

Phenomenon. This book was absolutely, positively one of the best books I’ve ever read. But I would have not had Newt die if it were up to me. James did a really great job on writing the book. And I absolutely freaking love Thomas Brodie- Sangster!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I think he did an amazing job in his role as Newt❤️💜💚💙❤️

Good book. . . . . . Good Almost there Lol if you are looking at this you have no life. Good book.

NEWT. why thE FRICK FRACK U KILL NEWT HE DIDNT DESERVE IT THEN WHY U KILL HIM JAMES DASHNER I SWEAR TO MERLIN IM NOT AT ALL OK WITH THE LIMP REVEAL HES ALrEADY SUFFERED ENOUGH JAMES thEN WHY U ADD FEUD TO FURE MAN WHATT HE ShuCK WAS THAT ABOT

10/10. This book is amazing! I’ll definitely be rereading it :)

Relieved it's over. You know, for some reason I expected there to be a cure. Like everyone else is saying the ending feels rushed.

SO GOOD. ouch is all i can say. great book though

Maze Runner Death Cure. Maze Runner Death Cure is a book written by James Dashner. In the beginning of the book Thomas is in solitary confinement. Thomas is later released by Janson a.k.a the rat man. As soon as Thomas is released he meets his friends Minoh, Brenda, Teresa, and Newt. In the end of the book Thomas and his friends escape WICKED and arrives in paradise.

I’m sorry.. The scorch trials was one of the best books I have ever read and maze runner was good too, sadly this book was a huge letdown. 1: the setting is so depressing and broken it was hard to read without wanting to ask the author why he decided to make a problem that wasn’t fixable 2: Tomas and Brenda carried this book. There ship is what kept me reading. SPOILERS 3: the fact that Teresa sacrifices her self is great but the solution to the whole series was a magic door to a perfect world. I was very disappointed and confused.

Maze runner 🏃🏼. Maze runner amazing just amazing💜

Updates. Is anyone else having problems when trying to update the book on ibook ... I am and i dont know why , help me , please 😓😓

Dreaded 250😭😭😭😭😭. NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Newt not you why?!?!?!? My love my life my hope 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I don't know if I can see the movie Thomas Brodie Sangster will make me cry forever just imagine watching his face die just like that in front of your eyes he I literally cried that is so cruel why did you have to kill off Newt he did nothing to you!!!!!!😭😭😭😭😭

Great book!. It over all was excellent but he ending wasn't the best. I was already sad that the series was coming to a end but the actual end was poorly wrote. :/ still like it tho

Loved the other ones, but.... I mean, from the page where you find out, you know where it's going. Then the whole book is just about waiting for it to happen. This book ruined the series, the book after it, and I wouldn't touch a book for about 4 days after the infamous page (I won't spoil the number). My advice is to skip this one, pretend that there was a happy ending where nobody else dies, and read the kill order (which was equally as painful always talking about cranks and such). Plus, in the kill order you made everyone love and admire T..... but in the death cure... well I think she should have lived. And plus, (spoiler alert) THERE IS NO FREAKING CURE!!! WHY WOULD YOU CALL A BOOK THE DEATH CURE IF THERE IS ONLY DEATH?!?! Sincerely, Cadence😺 a.k.a. mckenziecadence 🚨Spoilers Below! (sort of)🚨 P.S. Idk if this is true or not but is there really going to be parts in TST movie where youknowwho will have the flare? If so I'm not so excited for it anymore. PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE NO WES BALL PLEASE! Darn it Dashner they were my two favorite characters. Screw Brenda. Despite this book, I'm still looking forward to the fever code and TST movie. This is still my favorite series ever, and that's saying something because I don't pick favorites. Alrighty, I'm done. That's all. Mckenziecadence signing off here. 😺

The best books. The movies will never be able to compare at all... I hated reading till this series got me.. The last thing I read and like was a series of unfortunate events when I was younger and this is the best thing since then

WONDERFUL. Was a joy to read, can't wait for the movie!

Wow. Sooooo good! But I mean really?! Newt?! He is my favorite character and he’s sooo cute ☺️ Also Teresa died!!!!!! Hehehe 😏😈 I honestly hate her soooo much

FANTASTIC ENDGAME (but also a sad closing😭). I’ve been reading maze runners for a few years now and I have never stopped loving it!!!❤️ James Dashner wrote fantastically. Newt’s emotions were screaming at you the whole time which was heartbreaking to read💔 Page 250… no one can say that number without me just sobbing in the background😅🥺 The ending for me personally was a little weird and I felt as if Teresa’s last part was just kind of “… oh well.” Readers, you know what I mean. This whole book series was amazing and you could feel the emotions of the characters really well I thought the movies were also well done and the delivery was spot-on! When I had first read the book, I could clearly picture the characters and when I watched the movies, I was like “that’s exactly how I pictured them!” All in all, a great series❤️❤️ Thank you James Dashner for such an amazing series!! Have anymore ideas for a continuation for this…?😏😂 Thanks again!

AMAZING (spoiler warning!!). Amazing book, I enjoyed this final addition to the trilogy much more than the second. I felt that it was more engaging and had spent less time explaining lore, and more time with action and really emotional scenes. (spoiler) I cried my goddamn heart out when my favorite character died, the fact that he had to be a control was so heartbreaking. I thought that the author’s foreshadowing of his death was amazing, it was enough that I was aware that N probably wouldn’t make it to the end, but I was still caught completely off guard emotionally when he started yelling KILL ME. Overall it was such an amazing read, and a great end to the trilogy!

Don’t recommend. I loved the first book but after that I think the scorch trials and the death cure just progressively got worse and worse. I had like 30 pages left of the death cure and I was so close to just dnf-ing it because of how bad it was. And I feel like the ending didn’t make much sense either- like how could things just all the sudden take a turn like that and everything is just fine now? Idk over all I think the series had a lot of potential in the beginning and the plot was really good but it just wasn’t written well.

THE BEST BOOK EVER!! ❤️❤️⭐️. So emotional 😭!! This books made me feel so many things! I love all the characters sooo much❤️❤️!! One of the best books ever. It shows a true dystopian/apocalyptic world. Makes me soo grateful for my life. Really makes you think too. Some parts where soo unpredictable i was freaking out!! The characters, emotions, and everything just makes this a masterpiece 💖 *SPOILER ALERT* Rip newt🤍. I love him so much ❤️💔💔

Buy it. Read every book in nothing I don't like about this book

Sad. Why did newt have to die 😥😥

Get. Good book

Almost there. I agree with most of the reviewers: I laughed, I cried, I cried again... yeah, I cried a lot at this one. I also finished it in probably three days or so. It was intriguing. James Dashner is a master of suspense—one of the best I’ve seen. And I’m a literary nerd, so that’s something! However... I feel like Thomas’s personality wasn’t meant for this type of conflict. He’s more emotional my nature, and he’s pitted against an antagonistic force that uses those emotions for their own gain, so Thomas sort of lost his personality halfway through the series... which was sad, because he was my favorite character before this. 😔 Also, I feel like there wasn’t any plot or theme. Unless it was supposed to be a tragedy story; but I don’t think that was the case. Alas—this could’ve been so incredible. The first book was perfect 👌

I can't believe it. This was a good series. But it killed way to many characters I came to love throughout the series. This series started off strong but died down drastically in every other book and disappointed me more than ever. I just wish the ending was better and less depressing. 😔

Meh… u still need to read it. To be flat honest with you… this book sucked. Like this book is literally the WORST in the series. Like, all the other book are freaking fantastic EXCEPT this one. However, if you want to progress and read the other books… this is unfortunately a must read. Kinda like how “The Book of Boba Fett” series on Disney+ is essential to watching BEFORE you see Mandalorian season 3 (guess this example is only helpful if your a Star Wars person). Over all, pretty lame book even though it is the final. All the other books after this are amazing, there’s only ONE other book in this series - besides this one that I’m currently complaining about- that I felt kinda “meh” about, but not nearly as much as this one. You still need read it anyways. Two star for me.

It’s SO SAD 😭. Teresa was always trying to be Thomas’ friend.... Why did Newt have to die? Thomas’ three best friends are now dead😩😭😭😭😭

(SPOILERS) We'll.... That was, sad. First of all, don't come into the reviews of you haven't read the book because there will probably be a spoiler. That is what is in here. This is a warning. WHY DID NEWT HAVE TO DIE

Why did you have to make Newt die. Why did you do that to me. You killed him, Teresa Janson, An old random dude, had him make out with Brenda which is completely irrelevant. Plus what HAPPENED TO JORGE?????? THE HERMANA/HERMANO DUDE!!!!!!!!

Bum end. The end is trash

Teresa...Chuck...Newt..... WHY DID THEY HAVE TO DIE.. IM SO CLOSE TO CRYING 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭it’s too much...

Sorry Dahsner. You kinda lost it. The first two books were great. Now.....it's kinda boring. I mean, there was no point. It was just.....YA know? 💩

Amazing. I watch the 2nd movie and read the book those are amazing too but it's a huge cliff hanger I am dying for the third movie to come out and I was like I'm gunna read the book so I got it and I'd like to say best book ever can't wait for the movie nothing is better.

Why only 2$. Usually in a series the price goes up but the third book in this is less then half the price of the others..

Rushed. I enjoyed the first book along with the second book far more than the 3rd. The ending was very rushed. I feel like him and Teresa should have worked out, I was really sad when she died. I just feel like Thomas should have been with Teresa and not Brenda. Also it just made me kind of upset when all the people started dying. But hey it's a book about survival, maybe I should just go read Twilight instead if I'm all concerned about Romance.

Everything that can go wrong, does. If you want a book that everything goes wrong in, read this one. I don't think I will read the prequel.

All da feelz ❤️. I cried so many times... RIP Newtie Such a good book though

I love this series and this book!. I thought it was amazing, and the reason it doesn’t get 5 stars is..(This is kinda petty but, sue me then lol) IT IS SO DEPPRESSING! From start to finish. I practically cried my way through this book. Also, them going back to the maze to save people! That hurt me, honestly, it just hurt. Also the losses, by the way, the fact that WICKED CREATED THE FLARE! I am so ANGRYYYYYYYYY! Although, this whole series is a ten 10/10 but if you liked the first two, then grab a box of tissues lol.

Why you gotta kill off Newt!!!👊🏼😡😡. I love all the characters, but I absolutely love Newt the most!!!

The Death Cure. This series was phenomenal. Every single page was so well written, it blew me away. Never have I ever been so invested in a group of characters than I was in Thomas and the other Gladers. It was a perfect end to a perfect story. WICKED is good...

Love it..... I could not put it down... it was exciting yet sad when my favorite character dies😀🤧☠️

Oh my god. I really enjoyed this book! Though it was not my favorite of the trilogy, it was still crazy action packed and emotional 🥺❤️ don’t read page 250 😭😭

Death cure?. Where do I begin? This book is good and interesting however didn't have a resolution. According to the events that transpire in this novel it doesn't support its title The Death Cure making it kind of moot. The events that DO transpire seem very weird and the storyline is kind of all-over the place. There's no central plot, no actual goal. And the setting seems ridiculous. From an unknown location to Denver then back to that location then back to Denver, it seems very confusing. Another thing is the absence of most of the characters like Teresa and Aris and those Group B girls like Sonya and Harriet. It seems like what's the point in their characters if they barely even appear. What I mean is, it wouldn't have made any difference if they died in The Scorch Trials since they barely have two lines in this book especially those Group B people (Aris, Sonya, Harriet). And then Gally resurfaces only to do nothing. So the only characters that have active roles are the main character (of course), Minho, Brenda, Newt, and that guy George(or whatever his name was). Anyway, aside from that, people claim there are too many deaths in this book, which makes me wonder if they even read the book or just heard rumors. Well it's wrong, only three characters die and one of them is bad so that really only makes two emotional deaths. I mean if you think three is a lot have you not read Mockingjay? And finally the resolution was just terrible, probably because there was none and they just ran away from their problems not solving anything. Total letdown. There was nothing that really made it a successful finale like with Mockingjay or The Deathly Hallows. So I give it two stars of five (because the deaths in the book made it interesting) and of the three books The Scorch Trials is my favorite. At least that one had a plot and a GOAL.

AMAZING BOOK. I love the book but hate page 250 chapter 55. Buy this book or elss...................the griever will eat you in your sleep!

❤️😆❤️😆❤️😆❤️😆❤️😆👍🏼👍🏼. This is my favorite book and movie in the series.There is so much suspense and action .I dare you not to be sad when (SPOILER) Newt dies.He was my fave character.RIP😭🤧

THE BEST BOOK EVER I LOVED IT!❤️. This book was so amazing out of all 3!!!! And it had a lot more interest and details!!!!! And it was soo good!!! And I was also sad cause Teresa and Newt DIED!!! I saw the book and the movie! I literally CRIED on both of Newt and Teresa’s death!!!😭😭😭I CRIED!!! 😭😭😭And it was so AMAZING I LOVED IT!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️I really hope James dashner makes another book ya know a sequel to the death cure and I hope there’s a movie! But it was so good and so sad! And I personally ship NEWTMAS (Thomas x Newt) rather than shipping Thomas and Teresa as a couple so yeah! But I loved it it was amazing!! LONG LIVE THE MAZE RUNNER SERIES AND MOVIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️and also I love Dylan O’Brien and Thomas Brodie Sangster!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️LONG LIVE THE MAZE RUNNER SERIES AND MOVIES!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Great book but sad. 😓😓😓😓😓😓😓

OMG. I cant believe after all that she is dead!!!!!!! SUCH A GOOD BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FREAKING AMAZING ! 😍. Why Teresa why!!?!? This book was completely awesome and anyone who has read the 2 books before the death cure will definetly enjoy the last book! And if you dont wanna read the last book for some reason then you are totally missing out on something unbelievable , the whole book came together at the end . All the questions were answered.

The Maze Runner Series. Oh my goodness! This is the best series ever!!!! From the maze runner to the Scortch trials, to the death cure, I never believed it would end like this. James Dashner, you are the best author in the world! I LOVED this book!

Oh my god. Well, i could not have hoped for a better ending to this series. I am thoroughly amazed by the style of James Dashner and i hope he continues to create more books. This book ties all strings and is very satisfying and i highly recommend this book to anyone who has already read maze runner and scorch trials. This book surpases its predesesors and is probably the best book I have ever read. Thank you, Jashner, i can't wait for your upcomming books. Now if you will excuse me, it is 2:00 in the morning and I need to get some sleep because i have school tomorrow!!!

AWESOMEST BOOK EVER!. I hate final books :(

Best book ever. I am very very big on the Maze Runner series and so far this has been the best book in my opinion. James Dashner you are amazing!

Awesome. This book is awesome, I love it.

Worth to read. Such a good book

Great Book!. This book is a must read for any fans of the hunger games and any other dystopian authors.

TDC. I must say, after reading the first 2 books of this series, i was not disappointed.

Simply Brilliant!. Throughout this entire series, I have been completely hooked into the story. It was a thrill ride with so many emotional pulls. This is probably the best book series I have ever read.

Brilliant. one of the best books i have ever read keeps you on the edge of your seat until the last word truly brilliant my second/first fav series of all time truly fantastic

Stunning.. Yet it made me quite depressed, (I’m emotional, I literally hurled this book across the room after I finished crying.) it was a beautifully imaged book to conclude the beginning of this unexplainably amazing novel. James Dashner, you’ve done it again.
