Now I'll just have to get the final two from the library or borrow them from a friend. Ooh! And the best part!? There's a Brenda in this book! YAY! I AM REPRESENTED!!!!! She seems to be a bit of a hussy, but whatever I'll take it. Again, based on the files that were included, I'd say it's a pretty safe but of what it is. There's definitely something going on, something that Thomas and Theresa and Aris were all involved in. There is just SO MUCH HAPPENING all the time. Scorch Trials was a bit longer, but with all the action it definitely makes sense. I think the first book was spaced over a grand total of like a week, maybe two. Have you seen the guy who plays Minho?! Pardon me while I fan myself. Minho in particular is one of my favorite characters, and once I looked up who the actors were I was very happy. where someone forces them to run around a maze? Why? I still don't really get it, but after getting my hands on this and reading it through I can see why people continue to read it anyway. I held off on reading this series for so long because I couldn't get past the initial idea. Honestly though, it is just a really freaking fun story. So thank you, Comic Con, for providing this! I was significantly less rage-y as a result. Thankfully, that little gem included in the book (between the two separate novels, which makes no sense) revealed some pretty big spoilers, so I was able to glean a tiny bit more information than I would have if I had just read the books separately. I would have been incredibly frustrated with this had The Maze Runner Files not been included, because OH MY GOD the lack of answers is driving me bananas. No other compensation was given and all opinions are my own - or, in this case, my son's. One of my favorite books I’ve ever read, and I’ve read a LOT of books!ĭisclosure: We received a copy of this book for review. Very well put together and written, I would recommend this book to anyone who is capable of reading the word Griever!!! I personally believe that all of the books of the series should be included in this collector’s edition and then the “Maze Runner Files” put at the end, due to the fact that there are many spoilers, even for book two, which it is placed before in the book! When Thomas gets separated from most of his group, will he make it back to his friends? In the next book, The Scorch Trials, Thomas and the Gladers have escaped from The Maze, only to find out that life outside is even harder than in The Maze, and that they will all go insane due to a sickness called “The Flare” if they don’t get to a certain spot in two weeks’ time. Gladers make it out of the maze alive, or will they all starve to death without their supplies? When the first ever girl comes from the same box the next day, and Thomas figures out he can communicate with her telepathically, incredibly strange things start happening, such as the sun disappearing from the sky and the box stopping coming up with supplies weekly. Another reason is that the maze’s giant stone walls MOVE every night. Part of the reason it’s taking so long is because there are monsters in the maze called “Grievers” who come out at night. Turns out, The Glade is in the center of a massive maze, and other boys who call themselves “Gladers” have been trying to escape for years. In the first book, The Maze Runner, Thomas, our main character, is brought up from a strange box into “The Glade” with no memory of his past. I rate these two books forty-seven out of five stars, the reason for it not being infinity being the fact that the series has an ending. Written by James Dashner, this book is a very nice way of packaging the two books together, while also adding the bonus of “Confidential files, recovered correspondence, and suppressed memories” and “An exclusive fan sticker”, which I’m pretty sure is a bumper sticker from looking at it. The Maze Runner and The Scorch Trials Collector’s Edition is an excellent book! (Or is it books? It’s a combo, so probably just book.) Since I am reviewing each of these books separately (you can find them HERE, I thought I'd include my 12-year-old son's review of the Collector's Edition here on Goodreads:
