The Scorch Trials: The Sequel to The Maze Runner

by James Dashner Narrated by Mark Deakins

Overview

Book two in the blockbuster Maze Runner series that spawned a movie franchise and ushered in a worldwide phenomenon! And don't miss The Fever Code, the highly-anticipated series conclusion that finally reveals the story of how the maze was built!

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.

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.

There are others now. Their survival depends on the Gladers' destruction-and they're determined to survive.

Friendships will be tested. Loyalties will be broken. All bets are off.

Editorial Reviews

JANUARY 2011 - AudioFile

Mark Deakins returns to narrate the adventures that began in THE MAZE RUNNER. Thomas and his friends, the Gladers, are rescued from the Maze only to be put to another test by WICKED, the organization that now controls their lives. Deakins reads at a balanced pace that seems slightly off base for this high-action story. But by slowing the story down, he helps keep the action manageable as Dashner has created a dystopian world with a vocabulary of its own. The Gladers meet new friends and enemies on their quest, and Deakins shows his skill by providing each of the speakers with a distinctive accent. Listeners will be eagerly awaiting the conclusion to this trilogy. E.N. © AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine
