He's surrounded by boys who welcome him to the Glade - a walled encampment at the centre of a bizarre and terrible stone maze. Like Thomas, the Gladers don't know why or how they came to be there - or what's happened to the world outside. All they know is that every morning when the walls slide back, they will risk everything - even the Grievers, half-machine, half-animal horror that patrol its corridors, to try and find out.

strange and dangerous journey into the past where she would become
trapped in London during the Great Fire of 1666. Yet, with
determination and the help of a few new friends, she would fight to
find her way home, and in doing so influence the course of history.
