The Rule of Thoughts by James Dashner Published by Random House Books for Young Readers on August 4th, 2015 Genres: Young Adult-Science Fiction Source: Bought Buy on Amazon Goodreads Michael completed the Path. What he found at the end turned everything he’d ever known about his life—and the world—completely upside down.    He barely survived. But it was the only way VirtNet Security knew to find the cyber-terrorist Kaine—and to make the Sleep safe for gamers once again. And, the truth Michael discovered about Kaine is more complex than they anticipated, and more terrifying than even the worst of their fears.    Kaine is a tangent, a computer program that has become sentient. And Michael’s completing the Path was the first stage in turning Kaine’s master plan,...

The Eye of Minds (Mortality Doctrine, Book One) by James Dashner Published by Delacorte Books for Young Readers on June 3, 2015 Genres: Young Adult-Science Fiction/Fantasy Source: Bought Buy on Amazon Goodreads Michael is a gamer. And like most gamers, he almost spends more time on the VirtNet than in the actual world. The VirtNet offers total mind and body immersion, and it’s addictive. Thanks to technology, anyone with enough money can experience fantasy worlds, risk their life without the chance of death, or just hang around with Virt-friends. And the more hacking skills you have, the more fun. Why bother following the rules when most of them are dumb, anyway?    But some rules were made for a reason. Some technology is too dangerous to fool with. And recent...

What Wicked doesn't know is that something's happened that no Trial or Variable could have foreseen. Thomas has remembered far more than they think. And he knows that he can't believe a word of what Wicked says....
