THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING MAZE RUNNER SERIES • “[A] mysterious survival saga that passionate fans describe as a fusion of Lord of the Flies [and] The Hunger Games” (Entertainment Weekly)

The story that fans all over the world have been waiting for — the story of how Thomas and WICKED built the Maze — is finally here. You do not want to miss it.

Once there was a world’s end.
The forests burned, the lakes and rivers dried up, and the oceans swelled.
Then came a plague, and fever spread across the globe. Families died, violence reigned, and man killed man.
Next came WICKED, who were looking for an answer. And then they found the perfect boy.
The boy’s name was Thomas, and Thomas built a maze.
Now there are secrets.
There are lies.
And there are loyalties history could never have foreseen.
This is the story of that boy, Thomas, and how he built a maze that only he could tear down.
All will be revealed.
A prequel to the worldwide Maze Runner phenomenon, The Fever Code is the book that holds all the answers. How did WICKED find the Gladers? Who are Group B? And what side are Thomas and Teresa really on? Lies will be exposed. Secrets will be uncovered. Loyalties will be proven. Fans will never see the truth coming. Before there was the Maze, there was The Fever Code.

I really enjoyed this series. I hope for future books, but am not sure where they would be placed in the time line. I would enjoy a detailed report of wicked crumbling.

a great beginning/end to a series.

Would you listen to The Fever Code again? Why?

Yes. Because I’m sure I’ll listen to the Maze Runner series again.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Fever Code?

How young Thomas was when he was given to be studied.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Thomas first heard Theresa talk to him in his head.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I was really sad and stunned when they torcheres little 5 year old Thomas to change his name. Who could do that to a child?!

Another great one by Dashner
