About this audiobook

THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING MAZE RUNNER SERIES • “[A] mysterious survival saga that passionate fans describe as a fusion of Lord of the Flies [and] The Hunger Games” (Entertainment Weekly)

WICKED has taken everything from Thomas: his life, his memories, and now his only friends—the Gladers. But it’s finally over. The trials are complete, after one final test.

What WICKED doesn’t know is that Thomas remembers far more than they think. And it’s enough to prove that he can’t believe a word of what they say.

Thomas beat the Maze. He survived the Scorch. He’ll risk anything to save his friends. But the truth might be what ends it all.

The time for lies is over.

The first two books, The Maze Runner and The Scorch Trials, are also #1 worldwide blockbuster movies featuring the star of MTV's Teen Wolf, Dylan O'Brien; Kaya Scodelario; Aml Ameen; Will Poulter; and Thomas Brodie-Sangster!

Ratings and reviews

The Death Cure is a thrilling conclusion to the Maze Runner trilogy. It's full of action, suspense, and unexpected twists. Thomas and his friends face their biggest challenge yet as they try to find a cure for the Flare and save the world. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves adventure and suspense.

I am giving this book 4 out of 5 because the ending is lazy and leaves with so many unanswered questions. But it is still a good series and a good read will definitely read again a few years down the road

All of a sudden, Thomas turned into an idiot. Rat man's motives weren't fully clear. But a decent story.
