I haven't read the light novels for SAO, but I do watch the anime and there are many elements that are sort of the same, but many elements are different, especially one in particular. If you like SAO, in my opinion you will like this too.

I don't agree with Linda, you don't need to read The Maze Runner first. And I really don't think you can compare EOM to SAO, as they were meant for very different audiences. I like both and was entertained by this book. So give it a read.(less)
