Eng | RS & Hotfile | Scholastic Press | Ages 12 & Up | ISBN-10: 0439023491 | Sep 1 2009 | PDF, EPUB, LIT, PRC, HTML | 5.32 MB
Every year in Panem, the dystopic nation that exists where the U.S. used to be, the Capitol holds a televised tournament in which two teen "tributes" from each of the surrounding districts fight a gruesome battle to the death. In The Hunger Games, Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark, the tributes from impoverished District Twelve, thwarted the Gamemakers, forcing them to let both teens survive.
This rabidly anticipated sequel --just published on September 1, 2009--is divided into three parts: Katniss and Peeta’s mandatory Victory Tour through the districts, preparations for the 75th Annual Hunger Games, and a truncated version of the Games themselves. Slower paced than its predecessor, this sequel explores the nation of Panem: its power structure, rumors of a secret district, and a spreading rebellion, ignited by Katniss and Peeta’s subversive victory. Katniss, again the narrator, also deepens as a character. Though more of the story takes place outside the arena than within, this sequel has enough action to please Hunger Games fans and leaves enough questions tantalizingly unanswered for readers to be desperate for the conclusion of this best-selling series. Book Two of The Hunger Trilogy.

Whereas Katniss kills with finesse, Collins writes with raw power...The Hunger Games and expose children to exactly the kind of violence we usually shield them from. But that just goes to show how much adults forget about what it's like to be a child. Kids are physical creatures, and they're not stupid. They know all about violence and power and raw emotions. What's really scary is when adults pretend that such things don't exist. -- Lev Grossman, Time Magazine "Gladiator” meets “Project Runway” in Suzanne Collins’s gripping dystopian novel “The Hunger Games” and its new sequel, “.” Collins has joined J.K. Rowling and Stephenie Meyer as a writer of children's books that adults are eager to read. -- Bloomberg.com not only lived up to my high expectations, it surpassed them. It's just as exciting as The Hunger Games, but even more gut wrenching, because you already know these characters, you've already suffered with them. -- Stephenie Meyer, www.stepheniemeyer.com
