Maze Runner is an okay start to the Maze Runner Series by James Dashner. It is a very violent book with multiple deaths of kids and serious injuries. It is not a very hard read and I did not think it was written as well as some of the other books I have read. This novel was a little boring at points and starts slowly. Some kids may find it too boring to continue and may stop the book before it becomes interesting. I for one have a “thing” against slow beginnings. There are numerous books that I read the beginning of and stopped. Thankfully, I was patient enough to keep reading this novel. This book was too so-so for me to give it a four or five star rating. The only reason I kept reading the series was because I wanted to know what happened next. The plot was interesting and had me hooked towards the end. I am looking forward to the movie coming out, I just hope that it is one of those movies that is better than the book. I’ll keep my fingers crossed.
