The Death Cure
by James Dashner
The Gladers get captured and escape about every 10 pages. This trend was tired in book two, and it's worse now. For an organization bent on controlling the world, WICKED couldn't catch a snowflake on its tongue. Yet their secrets are finally coming to life - they need the Immunes, specifically Thomas, to complete their mission.
I won't spoil it for you, but let's just say the bad guys don't quite win. (Nor does the writing improve. Nor does Dasher figure out how to make Thomas' interest in a girl any less random than spaghetti thrown at a wall. I could go on.) But in a world that's truly decimated, existing just to await it's own obliteration, there's really no victory. That's the single biggest them that gives value to The Maze Runner trilogy. There's no coming back, no success that returns Earth to what it was. It's a compelling plot line even when those around it are weaving all over the place.
