SCORCH TRIALS BY: James Dashner
The sequel to The Maze Runner. Thomas and his friends thought that they were safe, but they were wrong. Their escape from the maze was just another part of the test that the evil organization WICKED has created and now they are in more trouble than ever before. They have to cross the Scorch, the hottest place in the world, in two weeks in order to get the cure to a terrible disease that has infected them all. But crossing the Scorch is going to be anything but easy with WICKED involved and the farther the boys get, the more they realize that the Scorch Trials are just the beginning. They have a long way to go if they want to be cured and an even longer way to go if they want to stop WICKED. Ages 12 and up Delacorte $17.99 Reviewed by Maggie
