So, another popular teen book may be on its way to the theater. The Maze Runner, by James Dashner, looks to be one of the latest projects of Catherine Hardwicke, the director of the first Twilight film. This is still early, so who know if it will work out. If you haven’t read the book, it’s about a group of boys trapped in the Glade, a horrible maze-like world. The story focuses on Thomas, the newest boy to enter the Glade with no memory and no idea how he got there. Each day, Runners are sent out into the maze to try to figure a way out. But the walls keep moving, and there are killing machines inside the maze. It’s a page turner, and the sequel, The Scorch Trials, was just released in October.
