Dashner brings this arc of the series to a satisfying close by taking Dak, Sera, and Riq back to the prime break: the death of Alexander the Great. With help from Aristotle, the time-travelers must fix history once and for all. Although most loose ends are tied up, a cliffhanger epilogue sets the stage for a sequel. (c) Copyright 2014.
