The story is twisted and somewhat disturbing. The author sets it up perfectly so that the reader wants to solve the problem just like the characters do. A box is delivered to the Glade and inside of the box is a boy whose memory has been erased. He does not know his name or where he has been or why he has arrived at this strange place. He joins the other boys and assumes his responsibilities even though confused and upset. The box is delivered periodically sometimes with a new boy, but more often with medicine and supplies. Just outside their community is a maze. The doors open into the maze in the day and close in the night. The maze changes daily and is supposed to be the way that they can escape and have their memories returned. There are boys assigned to be maze runners. They run all day and come back at night to draw what they have discovered in their section. There is something deadly that comes out in the maze at night. One day the box is delivered and it is a girl this time. Things begin to change in the Glade and not for the better.
A crazy read.
Enjoy.
