The Maze Runner 1

When Thomas regains consciousness in a moving elevator, his mind is a blank slate, except for his own first name. As the elevator doors slide open, Thomas is greeted by a group of boys in a place they call the Glade, an expansive area enclosed by towering stone walls. The boys, known as the Gladers, share Thomas's predicament—they have no recollection of how they arrived at this mysterious place. Their only certainty is the daily ritual where the massive stone doors open to reveal a maze, closing securely at nightfall. Every month, like clockwork, a new boy arrives via the lift. Thomas's arrival is anticipated, yet the following day surprises everyone when a girl is brought to the Glade—the first in their history. Her arrival is marked not just by her presence but by the urgent message she brings. As Thomas and the others grapple with this new development, it becomes evident that Thomas may hold more significance than anyone realizes. To uncover this truth, he must navigate the deep mysteries locked within his own mind. - **ISBN-13**: 9780385737951 - **Author**: James Dashner - **Publisher**: Delacorte Press - **Language**: English - **Format**: Paperback - **Publication Year**: 2010 - **Page Count**: 416 - **Dimensions**: 210×140×28 mm - **Weight**: 342 g
