Going into this book I was hoping to get some answers to questions that I was left with after reading The Maze Runner series. Unfortunately I didn't get any of those answers. Some of the can scenes are a little repetitive but overall it was a good book. It kept me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end and I never expected it to end the way it did. When I first started this book I immediately thought it was so much better than The Maze Runner series and when I finished it I still felt the same way. Like I said I didn't answer any of my questions I was left with from the other books but on its own it was very descriptive and explained everything that was brought up in this book.
