Everything is about to end, even the lies. After the Gladers made their way to the Berg, Thomas is drugged and confined in isolation for a couple of weeks, separated from his friends and being told more and more lies every minute gone by. Now, WICKED claims that the time for lies has ended, but Thomas remembers far more things about his past than WICKED could ever imagine and knows better than to believe them. Thomas has solved the Maze and made though the Scorch alive, but the final stage is coming and he has to prove it all.

What can I say about James Dashner that I haven’t said before? James is absolutely great at storytelling. He knows how to create suspense and keep it going until the very ending of every chapter, making you automatically want to read the next one, with a burning desire to know what’s going to happen to these characters that we all so well love. Dashner has a spectacular talent, too: creating a marvellous dystopian world (one of the best I’ve ever read, so good you surely don’t want anything happening there to happen here, because I could handle a dystopia like Divergent, but certainly not this,) and including a large number of plot twists which are eventually solved (something that not many writers achieve, since they create so many that they end up forgetting about half of them.) The writing is so good that it keeps impressing me. He does not describe to the end of boredom, just the necessary amount to keep you wanting to read more and more from him. To make it short and sweet, he’s just and excellent writer, and if you like dystopias, you certainly should read this wonderful, talented man.

Regarding the book itself, it wasn’t as full of pain and misery as I expected it to, which was rather confusing. Yet, not disappointing. The Death Cure is a perfect, satisfactory ending for this amazing series. Nothing has been left unsolved and we get to know WICKED and the world James has created thoroughly. In this third and concluding book, we get a great deal of action and adrenaline. It takes away your breath and makes your heart stop several times a chapter. Such feelings aren’t found anywhere, so what are you waiting to experience them all during these three amazing books?

Thank you for reading! Kisses.
