About The Maze Runner Series By James Dashner The third movie released was rated 16+, however, this was only due to the use of swear words.Īll the books in the series grip you from start to finish, but to truly get the most out of this series, you should read ALL of the books. The book series is aimed at those aged between 11 and 18 in particular, but there are scenes of violence. What’s more, in addition to the three books that were made into films, the author has also written two prequels, a short story, a novella, and has also published an additional book set 73 years after the main series, with the promise of more on the way! But as any reader will tell you, reading a series is often more impactful than any movie adaptation.Īnd I can assure you that if young adult dystopian fiction is your thing, then this series will NOT disappoint! In fact, it was the fourth-highest-grossing film series based on young adult fiction, second only to the likes of The Twilight Saga, and The Hunger Games.

He smiled, then helped himself to his feet and continued on, the corridor now thankfully free of fireballs. “You almost hit me!” Without waiting for a reply, he dropped to his knees, yanked out the blunt prop sword he’d been given, and whipped it end over end toward the source of the fireballs.Ī second later Jack heard a dull thunk, followed by a groan and what sounded like a body hitting the cave floor. The heat caused him to jerk his body to the right, saving him from the second fireball, which blew through the spot he’d just been standing in. and sure enough, a ball of fire came burning down the corridor, exploding just a few inches from his left arm. A roar like that could only mean bad things. Jack sighed, rolled his eyes, and slowed down to wait. This was all such a waste of time, and after that last fight with what was apparently supposed to be a troll, his arm really hurt.įrom deep within the cave came what was probably supposed to be a bloodcurdling roar. Yet here he was, in the middle of a cave-a dark and stupid cave-on his way to do just that. Once upon a time, Jack wouldn’t have been caught dead in a princess rescue.

Sister Frances said it really wasn't his other children had and will have Doggie and will be continued to pass on from child to child, just like the numbers at the orphanage. 5) Doggie wasn't allowed to come with him to the Carpenters.

In the second story, the Hulk was the last survivor of a final nuclear war that wiped out humanity he walked the earth alone, except for the roaches. The Hulk traveled into a post nuclear holocaust future to face the despot Maestro, who was his future self and ruled the remnants of humanity with an iron fist. The first story was first published during David’s run where he fused the Hulk other existing personalities into a gestalt Hulk which had the green Hulk’s strength, Bruce Banner’s intelligence and the grey Hulk’s craftiness. Not only did the book feature two different artistic interpretations of Hulk, they were two different personas as well. David’s tales of the Jade Giant, especially his lengthy run on the monthly title Incredible Hulk and special projects like these two stories are among the best regarded in modern comics. Considering the superb quality of the stories within, I’d rather have this in hardcover. This paperback collection is not my preferred format. Both these stories are written by Peter David and feature two stellar artists in George Perez and Dale Keown. This trade paperback collects two separate tales of the Hulk in a dystopian setting.

Sergeant Pelicano also tackles complex "compound bombproofing" situations, such as opening and closing gates, carrying flags, and discharging firearms from the saddle. These are the tools you need when faced with the possibility of your horse rearing, shying, running for the hills, or otherwise reacting in a dangerous or uncontrolled manner. He also arms you with the seven magic under-saddle skills he feels every horse should know some movements from the dressage ring and others from the world of Western riding. He provides the techniques that have successfully countered these situations-groundwork such as longeing and long-lining around and past "scary" obstacles, for example. Sergeant Pelicano exposes the most common problems he sees in his bombproofing clinic's lack of rider control, rider fear or anxiety, and herd-bound horses, to name a few. Now he's back and taking "bombproof" to a whole new level. By doing so, he transformed the concept of "bombproof" into a proactive form of training that any rider can apply to her horse. In his bestselling first book Bombproof Your Horse, Sergeant Rick Pelicano of the Maryland National Park Police shared the one-of-a-kind, step-by-step exercises he uses to prepare police horses and riders for duty.
