In the nation of Panem, in the not-so-distant future, 12 Districts are under the tyrannical rule of President Snow. The Hunger Games, a nationally televised battle royale between young members of the 12 districts, serves as a yearly reminder of the consequences that revolting against the Capitol would bring. Living in poverty, fear, and near-starvation, the people of the districts would not dare to think of starting a revolution...until Katniss Everdeen came along. The Hunger Games Trilogy follows Katniss, "The Girl on Fire," as she battles for her life, her love, and her family as a Hunger Games tribute from District 12, and unkowingly, may be the spark that ignites the downfall of an evil empire. Find out Katniss' fate by reading The Hunger Games Trilogy!
