Summary
The First Book in a New Series Set 73 Years After The Maze Runner
Seventy-three 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. Sadina, Isaac, and Jackie all learned about the unkind history of the Gladers from The Book of Newt and tall tales from Old Man Frypan, but when a rusty old boat shows up one day with a woman bearing dark news of the mainland—everything changes. The group and their islander friends are forced to embark back to civilization where they find Cranks have evolved into a more violent, intelligent version of themselves. They are hunted by the Godhead, the Remnant Nation, and scientists with secret agendas. When they cross paths with an orphan named Minho from the Remnant Nation, the dangers become real and they don't know who they can trust. The islanders will have to survive long enough to figure out why they are being targeted, who is friend or foe, and what the Godhead has planned for the future of humanity.

No idea
I have listened to the whole story and still don't quite have the idea what happened or rather why things are happening. And I want to know why so much. Where is the next book?

The narrator ruins a bad story
It's been 14 years since the first Maze Runner book was published and James Dashner has not evolved as a writer. His characters are shallow and he's still only telling us about their feelings, not taking us into the depts of them.
The one thing James Dashner is good at is building worlds and as the movieadaptation showed, other people can add flesh and bone and emotions to them. The maze is a really good idea, so it's the flare virus who's now has a whole new relevance in a post corona world. But there's no energy or nerve in the story, just a lot of violence.
Even worse, Mark Deakins is back to kill the last hope of engaging with the story. He only has one voice, dramatic. You can hardly distinguish male from female characters as he hammers on.
So if you loved the first three books, you'll probably love this one. If you're like me, you know now the basic outline of the much better movieadaptation that's hopefully coming within the next couple of years.
