THE MAZE CUTTER Maze Runner, Book 6

Mark Deakins returns as narrator of this sixth audiobook in the Maze Runner series, the first installment of a planned trilogy within the series. The story is set 73 years after the Flare, an infectious disease that led to an apocalypse that is chronicled in the first five audiobooks. Descendants of people who were immune to the Flare and sent to live on an island are forced to go back, and they find the world is much different. Deakins is a good guide for exploring the new villains, dangers, and adventures facing this new generation of characters. He is adept at juggling the multiple points of view. It would be useful background if the listener has time for revisiting the earlier audiobooks or the movies--but it's not essential. J.E.M. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2022]
