About this product

Product Information

The first novel in the worldwide bestselling series by Suzanne Collins Winning means fame and fortune. Losing means certain death. The Hunger Games have begun. . . . In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen regards it as a death sentence when she steps forward to take her sister's place in the Games. But Katniss has been close to dead before-and survival, for her, is second nature. Without really meaning to, she becomes a contender. But if she is to win, she will have to start making choices that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.

Outstanding seller!!! This bucket arrived well packaged and in stellar time. Very professional transaction. I bought this for a friend of my wife's who is a fellow nerd & was all excited about my popcorn bucket that I had bought about a month earlier. She told my wife that she was " extremly jealous of Jason's new popcorn bowl ", SOOO I had to get her one. I had my wife ask her to stop by her work and surprise her with it. She said the lady cried the entire way out of the shop carrying it.

    Great stories. Terrible grammar.

    I read the first editions, and I have to ask: we’re these books not proofed and edited? Not only is her writing style boring, and repetitive; but her overuse of commas, and inability to come up with synonyms for “said” makes her great stories less effective. There’s, no, need, for, ten, commas, per, sentence.

  • Thought provoking

    I needed this to complete the series that I am giving to a child for Christmas. The book is an excellent read and very thought provoking. If you read this one make sure you have the rest of the series as you will want to read them all.
