Quand Thomas reprend connaissance, sa mémoire est vide, seul son nom lui est familier. Il se retrouve entouré d'adolescents dans un lieu étrange, à l'ombre de murs infranchissables. Quatre portes gigantesques, qui se referment le soir, ouvrent sur un labyrinthe peuplé de monstres d'acier. Chaque nuit, le plan en est modifié. Thomas comprend qu'une terrible épreuve les attend tous. Comment s'échapper par le labyrinthe maudit sans risquer sa vie ? Si seulement il parvenait à exhumer les sombres secrets enfouis au plus profond de sa mémoire.
Thomas en était sûr, la sortie du labyrinthe marquerait la fin de l'épreuve. Mais, à l'extérieur, il découvre un monde ravagé. La terre est dépeuplée, brûlée par un climat ardent. Plus de gouvernement, plus d'ordre... Et des hordes de gens infectés, en proie à une folie meurtrière, errent dans les villes en ruines.
Au lieu de la liberté espérée, Thomas se trouve confronté à un nouveau défi démoniaque. Au coeur de cette terre brûlée, parviendra-t-il à trouver la paix... et un peu d'amour ?
Le WICKED a tout volé à Thomas : sa vie, sa mémoire et maintenant ses seuls amis. Mais l'épreuve touche à sa fin. Ne reste qu'un dernier test... Terrifiant.
Cependant Thomas a retrouvé assez de souvenirs pour ne plus faire confiance à l'Organisation. Il a triomphé du labyrinthe. Il a survécu sur la terre brûlée. Il fera tout pour sauver ses amis, même si la vérité risque de provoquer la fin de tout.
Treize ans avant que Thomas entre dans le Labyrinthe, une éruption solaire touche la Terre. Mark et Trina survivent à cette catastrophe, mais une autre épreuve les attend. Une étrange épidémie se répand aux États-Unis, frappant de folie ceux qu'elle atteint. C'est l'existence de l'espèce humaine qui est désormais menacée ! Convaincus qu'il existe un remède, Mark et Trina vont tout faire pour le trouver... s'ils parviennent à rester en vie. Car dans ce monde dévasté, certains préfèrent tuer pour que personne ne découvre la vérité.
Michael, Sarah et Bryson sont sortis de prison avec pour unique refuge une mystérieuse adresse dans les Appalaches. Ils ne sont pas les seuls à vouloir arrêter Kaine. D'autres Tangentes ont élaboré une stratégie pour contrecarrer son plan de cyber-domination. Les trois amis n'ont pas le choix : ils doivent se replonger dans le Sommeil du VirtNet, quitte à y risquer leur vie.
La frontière entre la réalité et le virtuel s'amincit... Et le véritable ennemi pourrait bien ne pas être là où on l'attend.
Le monde touche à sa fin. L'éruption solaire n'était que le commencement ; à présent que la Braise s'est répandue, les hommes sont gagnés par la folie et s'entretuent. Mais le WICKED cherche un remède, et trouve le garçon parfait : Thomas. Il va alors construire un labyrinthe que lui seul pourrait détruire...
La vérité sur la construction du labyrinthe, la purge et l'arrivée des blocards est enfin dévoilée !
Michael a survécu de justesse. En retrouvant la trace du cyberterroriste Kaine, il fait une terrible découverte : Kaine est une Tangente, un programme informatique doué de sens. Son projet ultime est de coloniser tous les hommes en remplaçant leur esprit humain par un esprit virtuel. La prise de contrôle a déjà commencé... Michael parviendra-t-il une fois encore à ralentir cette machination infernale ?
Quand le quotidien est sans intérêt, que les rêves n'existent plus, il reste la réalité virtuelle. Comme la plupart des jeunes de son âge, Michael passe son temps sur le VirtNet, une plateforme tentaculaire à mi-chemin entre jeu vidéo et réseau social. Mais quand une série de suicides - bien réels, ceux-là - intervient dans le cadre du jeu le plus populaire, Michael doit se rendre à l'effrayante évidence. L'intelligence artificielle aurait-elle pris le pas sur la réalité ?
When the doors of the lift crank open, the only thing Thomas remembers is his first name. But he's not alone. 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.
The Trials are over. But something has happened that no one at WICKED has foreseen: Thomas has remembered more than they think
