Description

Not all hallways take you to class. Some? They dump you somewhere pitch-black, cold stone digging into your back, your brain screaming, "RUN." That's how Alex Carter kicks off their day—except running's out. There's nowhere to go.

One second, Alex is just your garden-variety math nerd at Riverside High, juggling trig homework and cafeteria pizza that tastes like defeat. Next? They're stuck inside some freaky, living maze that seems way too into horror movie aesthetics. This place shifts, breathes, and pretty much runs on terror. You hesitate, you're toast.

The "rules"—if you wanna call them that—are brutal: crack the puzzles or get eaten. Simple, right? (Yeah, not really.)

All Alex has is a weird notebook filled with riddles and half-baked clues, and that relentless logic brain. Doors whisper threats and fake-outs. One wrong move and—oops, you're gone. Oh, and let's sprinkle in a journal written by another Alex Carter, who disappeared from school ages ago. Total comfort, right? Turns out, the maze is more than just a maze. It's a prison, built by some creepy Order, and guess what fuels it? Riverside's own students.

Escaping the maze? That's just Level One.

Alex manages to bust out—barely—dragging along a new friend and thinking, "Whew, glad that's over." Ha. Dream on. Back at school, people start vanishing. Hallways don't feel safe. The maze isn't done; its shadows are leaking into the real world, and the only way to stop it? Alex might have to go back in.

Dive into The Maze Chronicles if you want your heart pounding and your brain screaming, "Just one more chapter." But hey—don't say I didn't warn you. Once you start, good luck finding the exit.
