When the doors of the lift crank open, the only thing Thomas remembers is his first name. But he's not alone. He's surrounded by boys who welcome him to the Glade - a walled encampment at the centre of a bizarre and terrible stone maze. Like Thomas, the Gladers don't know why or how they came to be there - or what's happened to the world outside. All they know is that every morning when the walls slide back, they will risk everything - even the Grievers, half-machine, half-animal horror that patrol its corridors, to try and find out.

Maze Runner 3: The Trials are over. WICKED have collected all the information they can. Now it's up to the Gladers to complete the blueprint for the cure to the Flare with a final voluntary test. But something has happened that no one at WICKED has foreseen: Thomas has remembered more than they think. And he knows WICKED can't be trusted.... The time for lies is over. But the truth is more dangerous than anyone could have imagined. With the Gladers divided, can they all make it?

When sun flares hit the Earth, intense heat, toxic radiation and flooding followed, wiping out much of the human race. Those who survived live in basic communities in the mountains, hunting for food. For Mark and his friends, surviving is difficult, and then an enemy arrives, infecting people with a highly contagious virus. Thousands die, and the virus is spreading. Worse, it's mutating, and people are going crazy. It's up to Mark and his friends to find the enemy - and a cure - before the Flare infects them all.

The next installment in Dashner's best-selling The Maze Runner Trilogy and now an internationally acclaimed blockbuster. Can't wait? Also available at Audible is James Dasnher's Mortality Doctrine Series.

Newt has been to hell and back with his friends. The Glade. The Maze. The Scorch. The inner halls of WICKED. But now he has a burden that can't be shared with Thomas and the others - the Flare. And Newt can't bear the thought of his friends watching him descend into madness as he succumbs to the virus.

The pulse-pounding sequel to The Maze Runner. Thomas was sure that escape from the maze meant he and the Gladers would get their lives back. But no one knew what sort of life they were going back to. The earth is a wasteland. Government and order have disintegrated and now Cranks, people driven to murderous insanity by the infectious disease known as the Flare, roam the crumbling cities hunting for their next victim - and meal.

The 13th Reality series continues with book 2! It’s been a quiet summer for Tick, Paul, and Sofia, but the latest message from Master George changes everything. The Realities are in danger - and from something more terrible than Mistress Jane and the mutated Chi’karda of the Thirteenth Reality. People from all Realities are unexplainably going insane. Worse, some Realities are fragmenting, disintegrating into nothingness. Master George has learned that Mr. Chu from the Fourth Reality is working on a mysterious new weapon called Dark Infinity.

Atticus Higginbottom, a.k.a. Tick, is an average thirteen-year-old boy until the day a strange letter arrives in his mailbox. Postmarked from Alaska and cryptically signed with the initials "M.G.," the letter informs Tick that dangerous - perhaps even deadly - events have been set in motion that could result in the destruction of reality itself. M.G. promises to send Tick twelve riddles that will reveal on a certain day, at a certain time, at a certain place, something extraordinary will happen.

Seventy-three years after the events of THE DEATH CURE, when Thomas and other immunes were sent to an island to survive the Flare-triggered apocalypse, their descendants have thrived. Sadina, Isaac, and Jackie all learned about the unkind history of the Gladers from The Book of Newt and tall tales from Old Man Frypan, but when a rusty old boat shows up one day with a woman bearing dark news of the mainland—everything changes. 

Sadina and the islanders are up against both man and nature as they navigate their way to Alaska. There, they hope to meet the mysterious Godhead, unsure of what separates myth from truth. But the Godhead, now led by Alexandra, is fractured. Within the cracks of their sacred trinity, secrets are revealed that blur the lines of good and evil forever.

The New York Times best-selling series reaches an epic climax! James Dashner returns to the series he began - just in time for Dak, Sera, and Riq to make their final stand in ancient Greece alongside a young Alexander the Great. Fix the past. Save the future. It's now or never!

Atticus Higginbottom is trapped in the Nonex with his mortal enemy Mistress Jane and the corrupt and powerful Mr. Chu. No one has ever escaped the Nonex before, but for Tick, Jane, or Mr. Chu to have any hope of surviving the dangerous and deadly realm, they will have to work together for the first time in their lives. And they must escape. An all-consuming void has opened up and is unleashing monsters throughout the Realities.

Things have changed for Atticus Higginbottom. After the near catastrophe in the Fourth Reality, Tick’s being homeschooled in the fields of science, trying to master the mysterious Chi’karda. But just as he begins to make progress, Mistress Jane reappears, now hideously scarred and much more powerful. She has tapped into the universe’s darkest secret to create the Blade of Shattered Hope, and in her quest to attain a Utopian Reality for the future of mankind, she’s ready to risk billions of lives...

When best friends Dak Smyth and Sera Froste stumble upon the secret of time travel - a hand-held device known as the Infinity Ring - they're swept up in a centuries-long secret war for the fate of mankind. Recruited by the Hystorians, a secret society that dates back to Aristotle, the kids learn that history has gone disastrously off course. Now it's up to Dak, Sera, and teenage Hystorian-in-training Riq to travel back in time to fix the Great Breaks . . . and to save Dak's missing parents while they're at it.

En forhistorie til det verdensomspændende fænomen, Maze Runner. Feberen er bogen, der indeholder alle svarene: Hvordan fandt WICKED alle lysboerne? Hvem er Gruppe B? Og hvilken side er Thomas og Teresa egentlig på? Engang mødte Jorden sit endeligt. Skovene brændte, søer og floder tørrede ud, mens havene steg. Så udbrød en epidemi, og en global feber spredte sig.

David Player ha trascorso gli ultimi tre decenni cercando di dimenticare i traumi della sua infanzia. I rapimenti, le morti e una misteriosa leggenda, tramandata di generazione in generazione, il cui culmine è arrivato in forma umana, in uno dei serial killer più famosi della Nazione: Pee Wee Gaskins. Ora David è tornato, con i quattro figli al seguito, a visitare la casa dei genitori; non appena arrivati, uno sconosciuto si palesa alla loro porta: il figlio di Pee Wee Gaskins.

Settantatré anni dopo gli eventi di La rivelazione, quando Thomas e altri immuni furono mandati su un'isola per sopravvivere all'apocalisse innescata dall'Eruzione, i loro discendenti hanno trovato un equilibrio per andare avanti. Ma nel momento in cui, in un giorno qualunque, appare una donna su una vecchia nave arrugginita portando notizie nefaste dalla terraferma, si sentono di nuovo smarriti. C'è bisogno di loro, o almeno di alcuni, perché sono gli unici a poter salvare quello che di poco è rimasto.

La Radura, il Labirinto, la Zona Bruciata, le sale interne della C.A.T.T.I.V.O... I ricordi lo assalgono ma ora ha un peso che non può essere condiviso con Thomas e gli altri: l'Eruzione. E non può sopportare il pensiero dei suoi amici che lo vedono discendere nella follia mentre soccombe al virus. Lasciando solo una lettera, Newt abbandona la Berga prima che i Radurai tornino dalla loro missione a Denver, in Colorado.
