Summary of the story
A male adolescent awakens within an underground elevator, devoid of any recollection of his identity. He is met by a group of male youths in a vast grassy area, referred to as the "Glade," which is enclosed by towering stone walls. The "Gladers" have established a basic society, with each member assuming specialized duties. The boy discovers that the only means of escape is through a vast Maze that surrounds them. During the day, designated Runners scour the Maze for an exit and return before nightfall when the entrance seals shut. Following a competitive altercation with Gally, the boy recollects that his name is Thomas.
The following day, he is assaulted by Ben, a Runner who has been stung and left in a delirious state by a Griever, one of the biomechanical creatures that roam the Maze at night. Ben is compelled to enter the Maze and left to perish as a direct consequence of his actions, with no cure available for his condition. Alby, the leader, and Minho, the chief Runner, subsequently retrace Ben's steps inside the Maze the next morning. Minho returns late in the afternoon, dragging Alby, who has been stung, but they are unable to reach the closing entrance in time. Thomas ventures into the Maze to assist, resulting in all three becoming trapped. Thomas entices a Griever into a closing passageway, causing it to be crushed. The three manage to survive the night and return the following morning.
