Books with title The Maze Runner

Nearly nine-year-old Caroline isn't at all sure visiting her Dad, and his new wife and annoying stepson, is a good idea. She's even less convinced when Dad has to give a final exam, her stepmother is called away, and Hector's left in charge on her first day there! Hector warns the college student who drops off a late art project that Dad won't accept it. The student tells him to mind his own business and "just leave it alone till your dad gets home." Who does he think he is? Caroline can't do any harm by taking the cover off one corner and looking. The picture shows a mountain covered with twisting paths and a variety of fantastic creatures - including a mermaid. Caroline loves mermaids!And she can hear this one singing!Leaning closer to hear better, Caroline finds herself falling into the picture and meeting a mermaid. But mermaids aren't as nice in person as in theory. When Hector jumps in to rescue her, he is at best half-successful. They're trapped on a mountain full of brightly-colored threats, confusing paths, and monsters variously smart and stupid, treacherous and fair-minded, but all - from the courteous sphinx to the crabby Thigama Bob - set on keeping them from getting out alive. Hector is stronger and knows more about monsters than Caroline does; but Caroline is bolder and quicker-witted than Hector. And they'd better stick together, because the odds of either of them making it through alone are slim.

When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his first name. His memory is blank. But he's not alone. When the lift's doors open, Thomas finds himself surrounded by kids who welcome him to the Glade--a large, open expanse surrounded by stone walls. Just like Thomas, the Gladers don't know why or how they got to the Glade. All they know is that every morning the stone doors to the maze that surrounds them have opened. Every night they've closed tight. And every 30 days a new boy has been delivered in the lift. Thomas was expected. But the next day, a girl is sent up--the first girl to ever arrive in the Glade. And more surprising yet is the message she delivers. Thomas might be more important than he could ever guess. If only he could unlock the dark secrets buried within his mind.
