Summary
You know how sometimes when you're an adult you go back and read YA books you read as a kid, and find that the relatable preteen heroes aren't the relatable ones anymore? And one of the cool actually-young-adult, as in mid-twenties, characters is in a coma for six years, and comes out of it, and his first words to another mid-twenties character are pure vitriol with no given explanation? Because somehow, despite being in a coma, he too knew she had betrayed the side of good? And then there's a throwaway line three books later, as the author's trying to Pair the Spares for the finale, that leaves you wondering what the hell happened to these characters six or seven years ago, before the coma?
This is the result of that.

Summary
The Maze played home and prison to the Gladers for three years before the events of the Maze Runner.
A novel-length look into the sustainable life in the Glade in the months before Thomas is sent up, told through the eyes of the first girl ever sent there. Why a girl? No one's quite sure - including her. The story spans from her arrival to the day of their escape filling in the gaps with the daily routines, tasks, troubles and laughs.
Or, a glimpse of life in the Glade before Thomas screws it up. At times funny, at other times...really not.

Pre-series introspective maybe-one-shot regarding Asriel's insight on Chara's inclusion in the royal family and the future of humans and monsters. Definitely not soft Chara, but not hardcore murderous demon Chara either.

Even the greatest predator has a weakness... Or, why two of the most lethal predators of any fictional universe could not manage to easily make a meal of two children. This is the kitchen scene from Jurassic Park from the Raptors' point of view.
Please note: This also includes the earlier scene with Mr. Arnold's death. It is not particularly gory, but if you're squeamish, beware.

It is common knowledge that House Fraldarius has been loyal to House Blaiddyd since the Kingdom’s founding days. It is no surprise that the Saviour King and Duke Felix Fraldarius’s friendship began long before they were born.
In the year 1161, when the queen and the duchess became with children, the king and the duke came up with a plan to merge the Houses Blaiddyd and Fraldarius:
Would there be a little princess, she would wed the duke’s son. Is a young prince born to the world accompanied by a little duchess, two houses would unite all the same.
“And if fate decides to grants us both sons, Lambert?” said Duke Fraldarius.
“Then we raise them as brothers, like you and I were, Rodrigue,” replied the King.

Summary
Felix Fraldarius was many things, but a craven he was not; his father Rodrigue and his cousin Jacques would swear it a hundred times over if they had to. But in those woods, Felix encountered a monster—a beast so savage that it struck fear into even the bravest of hearts.
The Prince and his friend; they were so close that side by side, those unfamiliar with their appearances couldn’t tell who was the prince and who was his beloved friend. What brought their lifelong bond to this state of ruin?

Summary
“We’re both chasing ghosts, are we not?” said the delusional prince with a snide smile. “Your prince died in Duscur, and my beloved Felix never returned from the Battle of Avalon Hill.”
Felix shook at the sound of those words and he whirled around, kicking over the nearest church bench in rage. As he ran out of the cathedral, he heard the Boar laugh softly and cruelly twist the knife he’d plunged into the heart of the friend he once claimed to adore and love.
Once back in his room in the dormitory, Felix lifted his sword and gazed at his own reflection in the blade.
That bruised warrior was not the Prince’s beloved friend. The Prince’s beloved friend was as stern as he was kind—a light in the darkest of nights. He was the Prince’s protector and friend, his lifelong companion and the love of his life. The young swordsman before him was as cowardly as he was cruel—another dark cloud that blotted out the sun.

As the Morning Star's lust for power grows, so too does his obsession over his charge. But the end of Lucifer's life as an angel marks the true beginning of Asael's journey.
The story of the War in Heaven, the Fall of the Morning Star, and the clever young angel who sauntered vaguely downwards after Him.

Summary
Glenn Fraldarius had never asked or wished for a younger sibling. The fact that the baby in his mother’s belly stole away his parents’ affections before it was even born had soured Glenn towards the idea of sharing his parents with another child.
He didn’t realize how much he wanted to be a big brother until the king placed the baby prince in his embrace. The dangerous frost that had began invading Glenn’s heart melted in the warmth of the little prince. And he would sit at Prince Dimitri’s crib and watch the infant babble and laugh, longing for the day his younger brother would be old enough to play with him.
But then came Felix—a boy frailer than glass, yet so strong that he shook Glenn's world with his arrival like a titan.
