About this deal

The finale reconnects with the first book and it's finally explained too how and why Thomas and then Teresa were sent in the Maze. He figured he had two things to hold on to: his memories and his name. Surely they couldn’t take the first away from him, but they were trying to steal the second. For two days they’d pressed him to accept his new name: Thomas.” The Maze Runner and its incredible fandom in particular (no seriously, this fandom is everything) is my comfort blanket (though The Maze Runner is simultaneously the reason I need a comfort blanket, to begin with) and according to Letterboxd, I’ve rewatched those movies at least thirteen times (it’s more than that cause I constantly forget to log stuff).

Grievers carried a mutated form of the disease that also the immune could get, the syringes contained the antidote. (Don’t understand this because then they would have an antidote for the flare, right?) Las primeras 200 páginas son demasiadas aburridas (con la excepción del prólogo). No eran emocionantes, llenas de acción y tensas como los otros libros de la trilogía principal. Yo estaba realmente decepcionada mientras continuaba con la lectura. Es que en verdad que las primeras 200 páginas no fluyen lo suficiente para un libro que se suponía tenía todas las respuestas. H--l" and "d--n" said several times. "p--s" said once or twice. Mentions of cursing (nothing said). We hear some Glader lingo. Some crude/rude language. and that Newt was ready to follow him anywhere, even if it meant dying or losing himself to the virus, and that he did follow Thomas without hesitation, which did lead to Newt’s demise that Thomas was trying so hard to prevent from happening in the first place, After the Purge, Thomas did not go to the observation room for some time. When he finally did, the first thing he saw on the screen was Newt limping along with Alby helping him. He looked at footage from the day before and pieced it all together, realizing that Newt had climbed up a wall in the Maze and tried to kill himself by jumping off, succeeding only in injuring his right leg.As in the other books, the reader is invited into this near future vision of our world through the eyes of Thomas. His astute observations give us an honest insight into events but his young age, and the plethora of information that his kept for him means the truth of the situations are unfurled slowly for both the reader and himself. And... last but most certainly not least: Thominewt. Sadly the Thominho and Minewt interactions were scarce. I'm still pissed that we didn't get to see how Minho saved Newt after his attempted suicide (though, I'm not entirely sure if Minho being the one to find Newt is book canon or only movie canon). Once again, I'm convinced Dashner favored Newtmas in this installment due to the pairing's popularity (esp. at the time of this novel's publication) but I'm not complaining... He even managed to add more angst and suffering to the equation (didn't think that was possible, but here we are). Plus: the more lighthearted and humorous moments between them hit hard. Alright, now why am I making myself cry while writing this review, ugh. Okay, so… Reading The Fever Code was a rather interesting and eye-opening experience (guys!!! turns out I DON’T ACTUALLY HATE TERESA!!!), especially cause it’s been so long since I’ve finished the original trilogy (this is me debating whether or not I should dare a re-read).

La historia planteada en este libro es sobre la vida de Thomas antes de entrar en el laberinto. Esta vez el autor cuenta la vida de Thomas con más detalle, desde el adiós a su madre (con el cual llore un poco), su nueva vida en la sede de CRUEL hasta su participación en el desarrollo del laberinto. Creo que la historia de esta trama es un poco aburrida, pues solo muestra que la vida de Thomas es una monotonía, con sólo unas pocas aventuras poco sorprendentes. Además de las clases diarias de Thomas y de las pruebas, también había algunas escenas sobre Thomas construyendo amistades con los larchos. Disfruté leyendo acerca de la construcción de las amistades y lo lindo e inocente que eran como niños pequeños. Anos depois de ler a trilogia, a única coisa que eu me lembro dela é de gostar bastante. Me lembro como me senti aflito e investido nos livros, e me lembro também como tudo aquilo foi por água abaixo em Ordem de Extermínio. Esse livro é um meio termo entre aquele prequel horrível e a trilogia que eu amei. Foi interessante rever os personagens e conhecer um pouco do passado, e a leitura, no geral, entreteve. Foi divertida pra passar o tempo. Mas só. A narrativa é fluída, mas tive alguns problemas. The night before Thomas went up into the Maze, Teresa and Thomas had a heartfelt conversation, in which Teresa pinkie-promised that they would soon be together in the Maze, both memories intact. She also told Thomas that he meant the world to her. They hugged and lay together in Thomas's bed all night long. But it was also super sad to read their names, and every single time I read their names, I died a little inside... ESPECIALLY MY BUDDY!!! ESPECIALLY TOWARDS THE END!!!!I don’t know what to think about The Maze Runner books any more. At a glance, the series is quite mediocre and doesn’t have a compelling plot, nor unique characters. Yet, I still find myself being entertained by the story. Would I recommend this series? No. The plot holes are too immense to look past, the writing is too simple, and the protagonist isn’t very agreeable. However, if you ever do decide to read these books, I wouldn’t suggest reading The Fever Code first, because it does display many elements that are a mystery for most of the novels. A few months after the Purge, Thomas is sent to a desert called "the Scorch" to test a Flat Trans, a teleportation device, and is introduced to Jorge and Brenda, who indirectly reveal that the Gladers must go through the Scorch as the second phase of the Trials. Thomas has come to believe that a cure will never be possible, feels that his friends are then suffering unnecessarily, and vows to save them. What’s up, Tommy?" Newt exclaimed, his face filled with genuine happiness at the pleasant surprise that’d been sprung on him. Thomas couldn’t remember exactly how long it’d been since the last time he’d seen Newt. "You look bloody fantastic for three in the morning." Newt stood up straight and wiped the tears from his eyes. He appeared to feel no shame whatsoever at letting anyone see him cry. "That’s the way of things, Tommy," he said, his voice not quite steady. "The world outside’s gone to hell. Why should we expect any different in here? It’s just the way of things." He said it as if they’d been friends for years. Obviously love Newt. And now we get to know a little more about him and his sister❤️❤️❤️ he's such an amazing big brother and person. I love will him forever❤️😘

Pensé que tal vez contendría historias cortas de todos los larchos sobre cómo llegaron a CRUEL y cómo vivieron en el laberinto antes de la llegada de Thomas. Por alguna razón no esperaba que Thomas fuera el personaje principal de todo este libro. Solo describe cómo vivió en las instalaciones de CRUEL y él construyendo el laberinto, ¿no sabemos ya esto? y de echo no sabemos gran cosa de como construyó el laberinto, no se detalla mucho esto. Ava: It's your incalculable ability to trust others that has always touched me. And I'm sorry to have taken advantage of it so many times. I've just always done what needed to be done. The cover of this book is similar to The Maze Runner cover with The Fever Code showing the Maze in the process of being created.CONTAINS SOME MINOR SPOILERS FROM DOWN HERE. Major spoilers if you haven’t read the other books in “The Maze Runner” series!!!! Como conclusión creo que la saga es entretenida y te hace pasar un buen rato, no se yo podría incluirla en mi top de sagas, pero reconozco que me gusto, volveré a leer algo de James Dashner? Mmmm no estoy segura. Nearly a year later, he met Jorge and Brenda, two Immunes who were going to be sent to the Scorch along with a team to conduct research. As the new chancellor, Paige sent Thomas along with them to test the long-range efficacy of his brain implant. On the Berg flight there, Brenda and Thomas had a conversation, with Brenda saying that she could tell that Thomas and Teresa were clearly more than friends and that Thomas should make a move. ANYWAYS!!!!! I really loved everything about this book, from the characters to the Maze Trials creating, to the getting dumped on by everybody, to the... 👿 end..... I HATE YOU, JAMES DASHNER!!!!! I HOPE YOU STUB YOUR TOE TTHHRREEE TTTIIMMMEESSSS!!!!!!!!!! and that Thomas wanted so desperately to save his friend from that anguish by freeing him and giving him hope in spite of the fact that he knew full well that Newt wasn’t immune and that he was never going to make it if he left the maze for good,

Simplemente me cansé de leer que Thomas se sintiera solo y que odiaba a CRUEL. No es que no tuviera lástima por él, pero no me importó leer acerca de casi todas las clases que tomó y cuántas pruebas tuvo que tomar.¡Quería un poco de Newt y Minho dentro de CRUEL!!!! Great prequel to the series. Highly suggested to fans of the other books. Recommended 13+ for graphic violence and language. Finally we know how Thomas ended up there, how he firstly met his friends and especially how he met Teresa. A] mysterious survival saga that passionate fans describe as a fusion of Lord of the Flies, The Hunger Games, and Lost.“— EW It was really enjoyable reading from Newts POV in the book because you got an insight to what his character is like and i feel like this book delved deeper in his character development then the trilogy ever did. Newt is the character that really impressed me so much in this book and was the stand out for me in the book of course.Ava: It was me, Thomas. I know you won't remember this, but I want to say the words to you anyway. Explain myself. It was me who infected Chancellor Anderson and his senior staff. They wanted to end things after the Maze Trials. They wanted to give up. And I could never allow that, could I? What we're trying to achieve is much to important. The whole Maze concept is super cool and this book along with the first one are definetely my favorites, there's so much going on, but it's very easy to understand and follow. It was so informative, we discover everything that is related to the main purpose of why these mazes were created and we go trough the whole building process. If you finished this, I genuinely pray for the immaculate number of brain cells that you lost doing so. You would do better banging your head against a wall repeatedly. But also thank you so much!! See you on the next one!! We also get a version of Newt we've never had the pleasure of meeting before (a much more joyous and cheerful one) which made my heart ache terribly on more than one occasion... because this boy *clenches fist, wipes away tears* is so strong and courageous despite all the shit he's been through and ugh, I love him so freaking much (but what's new(t)?). I'm usually not the one to applaud authors for pretty much dumping all the #tragedy and all the #pain and #suffering onto one (1) single character (especially if the character in question is queer and the story taps into the 'gay suffering' aspect, Newt already falls victim to the 'bury your gays' trope, so there's that), but hey, otherwise Newt wouldn't be the best and most fleshed-out character in this series, so... kudos (nevertheless, it's not unproblematic).
