The Maze Runner Book #16 By James Dashner

Genre: Sci-fi, Action & Adventure
“She’s the last one…..” Several boys are trapped, nowhere to go, inside a maze unsolved for more than two years. Thomas has been sent here to do good, and thrives on the thought of being a runner without knowing why. To make friends isn’t easy when you're the greenie and when no one likes you, but Tom meets Chuck who is really so far the only friend he might make. The Glade is the center of the maze were four large gates (north, east, south, west) stay open till sun down protecting the Gladers from what lays beyond the walls. So if the Runners don’t make it back by sundown…  they’re dead meat. One kid a month along with supplies, but one day, it just stopped and that's when they knew they were never going to get another kid ever. Can Tom solve the maze and escape, or will he become another victim of the monsters that kill at night?

I found this book very interesting, in parts where loads of grievers almost killed Tom and Minho, and the mysterious griever hole.
What I found annoying, was that there were so many pages.

If I had to rate this book, it would have to be a 4 out of 5 because of long.

A 15 year old girl named Daniela is watching the news of the Mog invasion on tv with her stepfather. SMASH. They hear the door crash open.
Before the intruders could shoot her, Daniela’s stepfather satisfies himself to save her. Daniela tries to escape through the fire exit, but is cornered by mogs. She discovers her new telekinetic powers and kills the three attackers.

John Smith and Sam Goode and some other survivors are now fleeing from the mogs. The survivors hide, John and Sam leave them behind to search for Nine, who was last seen fighting Five. They decide to refuge in an apartment. As Sam practices his new legacy, Telekinesis, Four watches the news. Five is fighting mogs alone side Nine.
Setrakus Ra, the ruler of Mogadore, and conqueror of planet Lorien, is now striking Earth.
Can the lorien turn the tide and save us, find out in The Fate Of Ten.

I liked all the action there is, Nine relationship with Five and how each chapter is a different character in first person.

I didn't dislike anything.

I recommend this to fans of aliens, Sci fi, Action and a Mature Audience.

5/5 - I can not wait for United as One to come out (June 28, 2016!).
