If the characters were more complex or had creative or distinct personalities, I might not mind this so much, but as it stands, this is a plot-driven narrative with a boring plot that makes no sense. In The Maze Runner, the characters were so vivid, even from just a few pages of knowing them. This book is not worth your time. Book of Newt ties the new series to the old. But overall, the characters were unremarkable, a stark contrast to the brilliant characters in the original series. As was literally every other character in this book. Write a Review. Content warnings: Frequent mild cursing the curse words used in The Maze Runner are replaced with real-world cursing, which kind of upset me because I liked how unique The Maze Runner was for that. Some series successfully have a sequel that occurs far in the future, and others do not. When you mentioned "The Book of Newt" I wanted the entire freaking book.
