Before WICKED was formed, before the Glade was built, before Thomas entered the Maze, sun flares hit the earth and mankind fell to disease.
Mark and Trina were there when it happened, and they survived. But surviving the sun flares was easy compared to what came next.
Now a disease of rage and lunacy races across the eastern United States, and there’s something suspicious about its origin. Worse yet, it’s mutating, and all evidence suggests that it will bring humanity to its knees.
Mark and Trina are convinced there’s a way to save those left living from descending into madness. And they’re determined to find it—if they can stay alive. Because in this new, devastated world, every life has a price. And to some, you’re worth more dead than alive.
So the prequel to all other books in the maze runner series. Read them before this. Although i think you could read this and then them. But thats just my opinon.
So why did they bring a book out explaining everything afterwards. Well at the end of the third book, the imunes escape to a paradise. What we dont' really know beyond stuff called 'the flares' is how the world became what it did. What really happened and why.
We don't meet any of the same characters in the books until the very very end. Like really the last chapter. This is a bunch of new characters, ones who won't survive. But they've fought, the sun flares the world being crazy. Death.
I liked it, at first it was so-so, then it got really good kinda like ghost-buster super hero wannabes. Then it just went blah. Its interesting to find out the cause of it, but we don't find out alot of other stuff really.
It's intersting, probably worth reading if you liked the first three books. I'd not bother if you didn't.
Go get it from: Amazon UK | Book Depository | Waterstones
