James Dashner's Maze Runner sequels,
Scorch Trials and
Death Cure.
I saw The Maze Runner movie and decided it was pretty cool. The movie, like the books, is very much about running and jumping and finding a way out of tight spots, but the movie I watched was a crappy cam version and I'd like to see a clear screen version before making a review. I went on to read the books instead.
They're very fast reads. Apparently the first book, Maze Runner, starts slow, but it speeds up quickly later. The other books sprint from the beginning. In the stories, the world has fallen apart, burnt by climate change
and massive and sudden solar activity, but also ravaged by a custom virus that escaped a lab when infrastructure fell apart and burned. The story follows a bunch of kids who are immune and who learn only piece by piece that they are being studied to find out how their brains work. But they can't trust even that information - it might be just another test.
Also about finished with
Already Dead by Charlie Huston, a Joe Pitt Casebook. Pulp-noir, vampire-zombie, who could ask for less? I could. You can't put zombies and vampires in the same story, they cancel each other out. For that very reason, I almost put the book down.
Already Dead however does get away with, mostly by being a hard-bitten detective story about a detective who bites hard, with zombies as incidental. The vampires, or Vampyrs as the book will have it, and how they run New York, is the main story.
