THE KILL ORDER Maze Runner Prequel

The prequel to the three books in the Maze Runner series starts with the catastrophic sun flares that set the world on a destructive path. Mark and Trina survive the solar flares only to find themselves running for their lives as order disintegrates and confusion reigns. An infectious disease that plays a large role in the series is revealed, but many other questions are left unanswered. Narrator Mark Deakins takes a calm, deliberate approach to this action-packed adventure, and his slow pace seems to contradict the characters’ violent journey. However, Deakins excels at tone, especially as characters becomes aware they may be slipping into insanity. Series fans may wonder when the rest of the story will be revealed.
