Questions such as who is Thomas? Who are the Gladers and why are they there? Who put them in the Maze? All I can say is stay patient – almost everything will be explained within the book, but there’s still a few mysteries carried over to the sequel. Understandably, the you can feel a bit frustrated at times. I don’t think the true answers will be fully revealed until the end of the last book, The action is non-stop, and what I enjoyed most was that just when you think you’ve solved the puzzle, there’s a new twist.
Is this an experiment? Are they human ‘lab rats’? Or are the group being punished, with the maze serving as some kind of prison? There are several plot twists within the book, and I have a feeling there will be more surprises in the following books. Plot-wise, the book kept me guessing until the end. It is fast paced and has plenty of action, so it’s impossible to get bored. Although the novel is aimed at YA readers, full grown adults will enjoy the series too. This is the first instalment of ‘The Maze Runner’ trilogy, which explores the themes of survival, identity, friendship, global warming and human intelligence.
