The Scorch Trials by James Dashner Book Summary

Read the second book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Maze Runner series that is soon to be a motion picture, hitting theaters September 18, 2015, and is perfect for fans of The Hunger Games and Divergent. The first book, The Maze Runner, is now a movie featuring the star of MTV's Teen Wolf, Dylan O’Brien; Kaya Scodelario; Aml Ameen; Will Poulter; and Thomas Brodie-Sangster! Also look for James Dashner’s newest novels, The Eye of Minds and The Rule of Thoughts, the first two books in the Mortality Doctrine series.
 
Solving the Maze was supposed to be the end.
 
Thomas was sure that escape from the Maze would mean freedom for him and the Gladers. But WICKED isn’t done yet. Phase Two has just begun. The Scorch.
 
There are no rules. There is no help. You either make it or you die.
 
The Gladers have two weeks to cross through the Scorch—the most burned-out section of the world. And WICKED has made sure to adjust the variables and stack the odds against them.
 
Friendships will be tested. Loyalties will be broken. All bets are off.
 
There are others now. Their survival depends on the Gladers’ destruction—and they’re determined to survive.
 
Praise for the Maze Runner series:
 
"[A] mysterious survival saga that passionate fans describe as a fusion of Lord of the Flies, The Hunger Games, and Lost."—EW.com
 
“Wonderful action writing—fast-paced…but smart and well observed.”—Newsday
 
“[A] nail-biting must-read.”—Seventeen.com
 
“Breathless, cinematic action.” —Publishers Weekly
 
“Heart-pounding to the very last moment.” —Kirkus Reviews
 
“Exclamation-worthy.” —Romantic Times
 
[STAR] “James Dashner’s illuminating prequel [The Kill Order] will thrill fans of this Maze Runner [series] and prove just as exciting for readers new to the series.”—Shelf Awareness, Starred

mama noot. newt is my husband and minho is my sassy queen brother. anyone who says otherwise will find themselves falling off a cliff.

This book is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. I love how adventurous it is and how the author uses such amazing details!!!!!!!

WOW. Couldn't put it down...captivating!

It was boring. I liked this book, but it was kinda boring, for me and not as interesting as the first one. I hated Brenda, and I was disappointed near the end of the book, but it was still a good book for me. If you’ve already read the Maze Runner then you definitely should read this book unless you like Teresa too much.

Outstanding. This book is filled with so much detail and action! It has such a strong sense of imagery... The plot line for this book series is just great!

This book sucked. Had a plot that was very interesting, but it was so poorly written. There were so many not needed twists and turns. And they want you to care about the characters, but how can you? They are all 1 dimensional. In the end I liked the movie more than the book. Yeah, I said it

y e s. y e s

Not as good as first book...so much violence. Maybe a teenage boy would think this is good but it was such a slow read. I wanted to give up on it a few times.

Athena Kakarnis. Can you guys believe that Minho got struck by lightning ?! That poor guy would have bien killled.

AMAZING. This was a great book, the cliff hanger almost made me scream. The twists were great, and over all it was a great book! Seriously!!!!! P.S me and my friend talk like gladers

Great pre teen book. I love James Dashners books. Let’s go Brenda. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Loved it!!!!💎💎🙂❤️❤️. I loved the second one, amazing 😉 although I kinda wanted a little less death because I really liked Aris

amazing. I'm not a big reader and I was binge reading this all summer

🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍. I would stay up for hours reading this book. I love stuff with action, this book had a lot of action! It ends in a bit of a cliffhanger, and that really annoys me but I can just get the third one. Some parts I was a bit confused but, I think it was on purpose so you will feel the confusion that Thomas is feeling. I love this book! It has some unexpected turns, that makes it so much more interesting. I recommend this book to people who like adventure and sci-fi. And like everyone. It’s very enjoyable! And Newt is the best and I got really mad that I barely read anything about him. Yes he is the best. Just my opinion. You can’t not like Newt. I’m also gonna make anyone I meet read these books. I would love for these characters to be my friends. I’m rambling on now. K bye! Have a nice day!🤍

Amazing book. Love this book

Amazing. Ok at first I hated the book. But that was because I watched all the movies before reading the books, so I hated this book ( the scorch trails) because its nothing like the movie. But the ending tho! Really got me and now I’m hooked!! I totally recommend reading this book and the first one!! Now I’m on my way to read the death cure!!

BEST SERIES EVER. This is my all time favorite book. It has amazing character developed and many plot twists. King Dashner does not disappoint. I recommend reading all the books! It'll make you on the edge of your seat! I can't wait for The Fever Code!!! #Dashnerarmy

The scorch trials. Ive read the first book and saw the movie but i think the second book is alittle but berree. #CANT WAIT TO READ THE 3RD And 4TH book

Better than the first!. Since I wasn't a big fan of the first book I had low expectations for this one, but wow, I couldn't stop reading! Of course it started a little slow, but it got more intense and disturbing and even scary (I read it in the dark at nighttime lol)! And again, the only thing I didn't like about this book is this fake-swearing. I tried to ignore it and it turned out to work. I'm definitely gonna start The Death Cure as soon as possible!

Don’t understand what other peoples problem is... Of the first three books, this one is my favorite. I really don’t get why other people are whining about it, it was freaking great. Not as good as fever code (none of the other books even BEGIN to compare) but still is really great :)

Great job. Loved the book very intriguing and kept me on my toes.

Great book. Brenda dies

Best book I've red yet. Loved the plot characters and everything about the book 5 stars for sure definentily worth a buy😀

Scorch trails. This book is awesome. A little bit better than the first one. This one add mystery and keep you wondering what's going to happen next. Gave this five stars just a great book!

fantabulous ✨💯. I love this book! Read it in November 2015 and the major motion pictures are captured nicely! Can't wait to read The Death Cure. 😂🙈

Why?. This book is just one big pile of action, pointless twists, and random monsters at the end just cause we need a final battle. It’s sad because book 1 was good, and sadder that people think this is a good book.

Maze Runner Series. There aren't any words to describe how thrilling this series is I'm obsessed with it, great plot and characters I highly recommend these books for adventure lovers!

WICKED Is (NOT) Good. Amazing. Simply amazing. James Dashner goes into an enormous amount of powerful descriptive details on every single page of this novel. Could not be a better book, the movie looks great as well, and it is an overall perfect book.

Amazing. So much more violence and action. Don't listen to the haters, it is nothing like the first book. Just the same characters.

Awesome. Better that the first

AWESOME. Ok! I just finished this book in three days! And it’s worth it! The first book series I’ve gotten into! The first book was just like the first movie but this one is SO different, I kinda like it like that because it keeps you guessing. But definitely buy it! It’s such a good book and I give it completely 5 stars!

I CANT EVEN. Please do yourself a favor and improve the quality of life by reading this book. 100% better than the movie, even though the movie wasn't bad. Summary: If you remotely liked the movie, YOU'LL LOVE THE BOOK🤑

Best. A+ in my book one of the best I ever read

Great book (yet no answers). The title I gave this review tells it all. Like most books that are part of a series this seems to pave the way to the next book. It has its own story. However, it's a big draw up to the short and abrupt ending. Still yet, I like the maze runner series so far. On to the next one! XxKRAZYxK0BRAxX

Amazing. I read the first book in this series a while ago, and then I found this book. I definitely recommend the whole series of four books. This book is captivating and James Dashner makes us VERY mad at the end of the book because there is a cliff hanger. All endings aside, this book is a great sci-fi read.

Newt😍. No more to be said. . . Except, Newt is bae

I loved it!!!. The book was so amazing I loved it! And it was amazing!!! And I love Dylan O’Brien and Thomas Brodie Sangster!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Amazing. This book has to be the absolute best book I've ever read. It's had so many cliffhangers, especially with me going to school I had to stop in the middle places I didn't want to... But I ended up getting through it. It had a lot of suspension and it kept me on the edge of my seat for sure. I couldn't stop talking about it to my friends, teachers, and family. And once I got done with it I was so happy to be able to read "the Death Cure". If you haven't seen the movie yet I suggest you read the book 1st because the book build up more Tension then movies do. Have fun reading the book! :-)

Easy to finish. so much going on but it was great! My favorite one of the series actually. Lots of action, character development and surprises. Just don't read it and expect the movie to be ANYTHING like it. Completely different stories.

Good book. 2nd best book I ever read. 1st was the maze runner!!!!!

Better than the maze runner. I LOVED this book!!! I found it really interesting and intriguing. I finished the book the day I bought it! That is how much I liked it. I can't wait for the movies to come out 😊😊😆

pretty good second book. first mistake of mine was that I watched the movies firsts (just because of dylanobrien) but anywaysss the movie and the book are WAYYYYYYYYYY different and I had a hard time trying to understand somethings that were happening because i kept thinking of the movie. It wasn’t because i wasn’t interested in the book because i was 100% was i’d would always read it when i could it just stresses me so much how ( SPOILER🤠) how thomas and the other gladers find out that they are “immune” to the virus at the very very beginning of the movie and in the book they don’t even know it yet..now they do gives use a little hint at the end of book 2 that something is up and that the some kids are “immune” but the characters don’t even know just the people reading the book.

Best buk or book whatever u want to call it.. Good. better then Harry Potter, or other books. -watch look at my Chanel dean d gamer. 200 iq book. 🙂

YES rEaD tHiS rEvIeW. Oh wow I love it. So good. ❤️😘😍🥰NEWT🥰😍😘❤️

Awesome book. This book is really good😏

Death Cure Review. This book is for the people that want the best experience over a book. This book is filled with drama, suspense, and sadness. SPOILER The part where Teresa dies is so sad.. Her last words as "I only care for you" that made me cry... And so did the sad death of newt.

Awesome 👏💖. 🤩 ! I liked it even more than the first. It had action and was a little creepy. I loved it😁😁! One of my favorite books! Love all the suspense and the sense of adventure. Shows a true dystopian world. The characters are amazing ❤️❤️

Amazing read. I just finished reading book 2 of maze runner and I personally like it. There is a big plot turner at the end

Yes. YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

The best thing ever. This series is in my top ten favorite series (it’s right behind warriors and ahead of captain underpants) it has lots of smart ideas in it and it has a good balance of humor and drama

Unreal. This series is addicting!! Amazing writing

Spectacular!!. I must say, after the first book I quickly rushed to the next. This novel kept the wheels in my mind spinning all night to think of how everything in this books just snaps together. The descriptions are vivid, and I can feel the pain as the characters do in the novel. Blown away once again.

The trails aren't over. This book is really good and is just as beautifully written as the first, but this one has a bit more suspense. READ THE FIRST BOOK BEFORE YOU READ THIS. Very good book, be sure to read The Death Cure and The Kill Order!

Great book. I couldn't stop reading and every time I picked up my ipad I felt drawn to iBooks just to read this book! I finished this 1003 page book in 1 and a half days it was so amazing! If you have doubts about spending $10 on this book it's definitely worth it! Happy reading!

Finished in a day. Couldn't put it down. Watched the maze runner movie and couldn't wait to find out what happened next. I'm sad that it wasn't longer but I think I feel as tired as Thomas does. Page after page of action, plenty to keep you on the edge of your seat. This story is messed up... But that's because I don't know what happens in the end...yet. Downloading the death cure now. Woo hoo!

READ THIS BOOK BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!!!!!!. NEED TO GET THIRD

Amazing. The book is freaking awesome I own it in book and on the iBook store I used to think rick riodian was my fav author now it's james dasher all the way can't wait for the kill order!!!!!!!!!!!!!
