In “The Maze Runner,” the main character can’t remember anything about his past or his childhood, while “In The Woods,” the main character had an unexplainable event happen to him when he was young. In each of the books, there is a place that is mysterious and know of the characters know a lot…

Margaret Thatcher once said, “Crime is crime is crime it’s not political it’s crime.” In 1981, the IRA prisoners started the second hunger strike in the Maze prison because the prisoners wanted to be recognized as prisoners of war.
