*NEW UPDATES ON HOLD UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE*
In a dystopian future set far across the land of Arixona, lie the sixteen Precincts, The Commune and the Labyrinth. Every year, one Martyr from each Precinct is chosen to compete in The Parables - a competition like no other. Set in the scene of a Grimm's fairy tale, each Martyr must try to conquer the challenges that lie ahead of them. The challenges that lie in the Labyrinth.
In the Labyrinth, there is only a path to guide you to the finish and only one can become the victor. Either win or get trapped. Get trapped, and you lie vulnerable to the creatures of the Labyrinth, lurking in the shadows ready to pounce upon their prey.
The 99th Parables. Eight boys. Eight girls.
The tale of Hansel and Gretel is about to be retold with an epic twist.
Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games and The Maze Runner.

❝ never trust a survivor until you find out what they did to stay alive ❞ ―Kurt Vonnegut, Bluebeard [ the maze runner × the hunger games ] No one was ever happy in District 12. They were the poorest among the districts, had the unhappiest citizens, and never enough to eat. But when Rosalind Mellark's name was reaped, and she found herself facing her worst nightmare―playing in the Hunger Games―a rare spark of hope ignited not just among the people of her district, but throughout Panem. Little did she know that one day, a certain girl on fire would be the catalyst to the hope that Rosalind had sparked.

teenage wasteland ;; the maze runner
" don't cry, don't raise your eye. it's only teenage wasteland." she arrived just the same as everyone else. scared, confused, and lacking fifteen years of memories. the only difference, however, was the fact that she was a 𝘨𝘪𝘳𝘭. nevertheless, florence made her mark. she learned pretty early on that every moment mattered, especially if she were trying to convince a group of boys that she, too, could be trusted. and helpful. two years later, flo had proven to be just that. with her secured job as the keeper of the medjacks (and the self assumed role as sister of the glade), things should've started looking up. too bad that good things don't last forever. after the death of their late leader, nick, and ben's mysterious day-stinging, florence was beginning to lose hope. that is, until a mysterious boy (and his comatose counterpart) arrived, flipping her beliefs upsidedown, sideways, and three-sixty degrees all with one scrap of paper. "she's the last one. ever." and so, along with the rest of the glade, it is time for florence to explore deeper within the maze. what else awaits them? awaits her?

Breaking The Code (Part one)
When Zara wakes up in the Glade with no memory of her past, she's thrust into a dangerous world surrounded by boys who've spent years trying to solve the Maze that traps them. As she navigates the Glade, Zara quickly proves herself resourceful, brave, and determined to uncover the truth-qualities that catch the attention of both her fellow Gladers and the Maze itself. But something about Zara is different. Strange flashes of memories haunt her, and a mysterious connection to Thomas sets her apart from the others. When the rules of the Maze start to change, and deadly threats like the Grievers invade their fragile sanctuary, Zara must decide whether to step up as a leader or risk losing everything. As secrets unravel, alliances are tested, and sacrifices are made, Zara discovers that the Maze is just the beginning. Her connection to the organization behind it all might hold the key to their survival-or doom them all.Complete
Echo II
They thought they'd escaped. They were wrong. The desert stretches endlessly before them, scorching by day, freezing by night, and full of dangers they can't see coming. Isla is barely holding on, her body fighting against whatever WICKED pumped into her veins. Minho refuses to leave her side, even as the others struggle to keep moving. Food is running low. Water is almost gone. And the mountains that promise salvation still feel impossibly far away. But WICKED isn't done with them yet. Hunted by Cranks, haunted by nightmares, and desperate to survive, the group has no choice but to keep pushing forward-because stopping means death. Or worse. And in the end, escape might not be an option at all.Complete

Game of Ash and Bone
In a dystopian future the unlucky are brought back from the dead to compete in the deadly labyrinth for a chance at redemption. The Game of Ash and Bone rarely has a good outcome, with most contestants falling to fellow players, or the monsters that roam the labyrinth, a live streamed spectacle for the New Order's elite. Cosmo Nyx comes back to life with no memory of who killed him, but that shouldn't matter considering he's about to fight to the death in a game that he suspects has long since been rigged. Can he trust his fellow contestants long enough to get out alive? And will his own dark past somehow interfere with his chaotic present? Trigger/Content warning: some upsetting sequences including peril. Some strong language. Some adult themes. Mention of sexual relationships. Somewhat gory blood violence. Mild crude humor.Complete
