The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
Book 2
Suzanne CollinsPostscript summary
Games trilogy.
"Collins has done that rare thing. She has written
a sequel that improves upon the first book." The New York Times
Book Review
"Whereas Katniss kills with finesse, Collins writes
with raw power." Time magazine
A Time Magazine Top Ten Fiction Book of 2009
After winning the brutal Hunger Games, Katniss and Peeta
return to their district, hoping for a peaceful future.
But their victory has caused rebellion to break out ... and the
Capitol has decided that someone must pay.
As Katniss and Peeta are forced to visit the districts on the
Capitol's Victory Tour, the stakes are higher than ever. Unless they
can convince the world that they are still lost in their love
for each other, the consequences will be horrifying.
Then comes the cruellest twist: the contestants for the
next Hunger Games are announced, and Katniss and Peeta are forced
into the arena once more.
Three books, four films and one worldwide phenomenon, The
Hunger Games changed the face of global YA.
All three of the Hunger Games original novels have been
made into major feature films, starring Jennifer Lawrence, Josh
Hutcherson & Liam Hemsworth
The best-selling prequel to The
Hunger Games, The Ballad of Songbirds
and Snakes, was a global number one feature film
in autumn 2023 and a number one New York Times and The
Times bestseller in hardback in May 2020.
