THE HUNGER GAMES

In a post-apocalyptic future, North America has become Panem--a collection of twelve districts surrounding a prosperous Capitol City. Each year, as punishment for a long-ago rebellion, the Capitol selects one boy and one girl from each district to compete in the Hunger Games, a televised fight to the death. When Primrose, Katniss's younger sister, is among the two names called from District 12, Katniss volunteers to take her sister's place. After all, it's her skill with a bow and arrow that has put food on the family table since their father's death. But can Katniss, who is willing to risk her life to save her sister's, learn to kill humans the same way she hunts--without mercy?
