I really, really didn't want to read The Kill Order. I detested The Maze Runner Trilogy, and had absolutely no hope of caring for the Prequel. 
 However, I was surprised to find that The Kill Order wasn't that bad. It was more interesting than the rest of the series, and although the characters in this book are a bit unrealistic and somewhat flat, they are loads better than the empty paper cut outs that carried the original series. This book was kind of "meh", so it earns a 2.75 stars. 
 Overall, I still didn't like the series as I felt it had so much potential but just doesn't cut it, and I will most definitely not be reading anything by the author in the future as I am not a fan of his writing style.
