Book One of the Maze Runner Series
by James Dashner
A teenager with no memory must navigate a deadly maze to survive in book one of this post-apocalyptic phenomenon.
When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his name. He's surrounded by strangers—boys whose memories are also gone.
Outside the towering stone walls that surround them is a limitless, ever-changing maze. It's the only way out—and no one's ever made it through alive.
Then a girl arrives. The first girl ever. And the message she delivers is terrifying: Remember. Survive. Run.

"Breathless, cinematic action." —Publishers Weekly
