The Rule of Thoughts

Kaley Catron

Ughh such a good series. Even for a second time this series is blowing my mind. I can't wait to dive right into the Game of Lives!!

From James Dashner, author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Maze Runner series, comes the paperback of The Rule of Thoughts, the second book in the Mortality Doctrine series and the exciting companion toThe Eye of Minds and The Game of Lives. Look for The Maze Runner movie in stores now! And get ready for the movie adaptation of book two in the bestselling series,The Scorch Trials, which will hit theaters on September 18, 2015! Michael completed the Path, and the truth he discovered about Kaine is more complex—and more terrifying—than anyone at VirtNet Security could have anticipated. Kaine is a Tangent, a computer program that has become sentient. And Michael's completing the Path was the first stage in turning Kaine's master plan, the Mortality Doctrine, into a reality. The Mortality Doctrine will populate Earth entirely with human bodies harboring Tangent minds. Any gamer who sinks into the VirtNet risks coming out with a Tangent intelligence in control of their body. The VNS would rather pretend the world is perfectly safe, but Michael and his friends know that the takeover has already begun. And if they don't stop Kaine soon, it will be game over for humanity. Praise for the Mortality Doctrine series “An exhilarating adventure story with touches of Anthony Horowitz's Alex Rider books and Orson Scott Card'sEnder's Game.” —Booklist “An adrenaline rush.” —School Library Journal “A gripping page-turner, Dashner's latest is sure to please.” —BookPage “Full of action [and] a rather surprising twist that will leave you flipping pages.” —FanBoyNation.com “High on concept, this is an intriguing read for the digital generation.” —Kirkus Reviews A Junior Library Guild Selection A YALSA Teen Top Ten Pick

I love the premise and story line behind this series. It is intriguing and thought provoking. 

With this installment, I had a hard time being captured into it. While I did enjoy it, it was not an "impossible to put down" story.

The characters are so annoying in this book. I don't know what happened to them. The plot was so predictable and it just hurt my head reading this.

Jeremy Cote

I liked it. The story had some good action, and towards the end of the book some themes start coming out which are really thought-provoking, reminding me of some of the questions brought up in *Inception*.
