Not as good as the first... submitted by miss pyro on June 29, 2011, 1:14pm But still amazing. I can't wait to see how Dashner finishes this amazing trilogy.

Eh, still good submitted by xjasx on June 17, 2012, 11:46pm I still think that the first book in the series are always the best, but this was still pretty good to say the least xD

Interesting submitted by tree64 on June 18, 2012, 9:41pm Although this series has an odd plot, it is still filled with adventure and action. Throughout the book, you get more and more confused, and at the end of the book, you still do not get all of the answers. The remaining questions are answered in the last book of the trilogy, "The Death Cure." Although this was a good book, it gets pretty confusing in the middle, and you really have to think. However, if you have read "The Maze Runner," you should continue on with this series and finish, although the ending of the trilogy is still kind of odd.

Fantastic submitted by Memoria1224 on August 7, 2012, 7:43pm This is a really good book. It has a lot of suspense and action in it. I feel bad for Tom because he got betrayed by Teresa.

Scorch Trials submitted by SBNB on June 21, 2015, 9:41pm This is another good book in the Maze Runner series. It's honestly not the best apocalyptic sci-fi I've read, but it definitely entertains.

Bad submitted by lopsop73 on July 8, 2015, 2:36pm This book really stinks. The first book was WAYYYYYYY better!

It's alright submitted by ivanredondo on July 14, 2015, 2:03pm It's an awesome book, leading the readers with so many questions like: is WICKED really good? Can we still trust Teresa or Brenda? What's going to happen next? It's very similar to the first book, "The Maze Runner."

The Saga Continues submitted by rross782 on August 28, 2015, 12:54pm This second book of the series adds new characters plus more difficult trials. The questions remain: is WICKED good or bad? Who is Thomas? When will the trial end and who survives. It's difficult to put the book down and reading it leaves you suspenseful.

Great submitted by peterflorence on June 21, 2017, 5:21pm Not as good as the first but still a great book. Definitely read The Maze Runner first.

It's ok submitted by wilwil04 on June 24, 2018, 9:26am The book has to many things happening at once it get hard to pay attention to the plot. Overall the book is pretty good, and a good addition to the maze runner series.
