70 years after the events of THE DEATH CURE, when Thomas and other immunes were sent to an island to survive the Flare-triggered apocalypse, their descendants have thrived. But when a rusty old boat shows up one day with a woman bearing dark news of the mainland, a group of the islanders decide to embark back to civilization. There they find that many have evolved into a more violent, intelligent version of Cranks due to a new string of the virus, and they are hunting those whose ancestors were sent away by Ava Paige. The islanders will have to survive long enough to figure out why they are hunted and what it means for the future of humanity.

Thank you to the author for providing me with a copy of this book via R&R Book Tours as part of this blog tour in exchange for my honest review and thank you to Shannon for allowing me to take part in this blog tour.
This book takes place 73 years after the events in The Death Cure. It followers the descendants of the original Gladers. We start off on the island where they went for safety all those years ago. Things happen and several of the characters end up back in the real world.
I was really excited to get back into this world because I really enjoyed the Maze Runner series. I was curious to find out where they were so many years later. I guess it makes sense that pretty much all of the characters from the original trilogy have long gone but I have to say I kind of missed them although that doesn't really hamper my opinion on the book.
It started off slow for me, but it eventually picked up a little. I did enjoy this story, but I am left with so many unanswered questions. So much so that I am just left being confused. I guess it makes sense since there is going to be more books but I don't particularly like being left not really knowing what's going on at all. I enjoyed the action and the friendships I just wish we could have gotten more answers.
Like I said I did enjoy this, but I needed more. I think it's a great start to the series and I am interested in reading the next book and hopefully getting some answers to all of my questions.
