Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

THE HUNGER GAMES as you've never seen it before -- in a remarkable illustrated edition. Even at the age of sixteen, Katniss Everdeen knows it takes hard work, keen observation, and inner fortitude to survive in the world. Her home, District 12, is under the merciless rule of the Capitol, continually forced to pay after losing a long-ago civil war in the nation of Panem. One of the ways the Capitol keeps control is its annual Hunger Games, a televised fight to the death featuring two young tributes from each of Panem's twelve districts. This gruesome battle is meant to send home a chilling Rebellion will always be punished. When Katniss finds herself within the Hunger Games arena, she knows the odds aren't in her favor. Any wrong move will end her life -- and even the right moves come with a cost. But if she can survive, there is a chance the districts may survive as well... The Hunger Games has enthralled millions of readers in its examination of the price of war, human nature, and the powerful force of both love and resistance. Now it appears for the first time in a deluxe illustrated edition, with spellbinding art from internationally acclaimed artist Nico Delort.

    Don't know why its called the Hunger Games when every single character was eating all the damn time! This is the first time reading the books, but I've been a long time fan of the movies. It was fantastic! And it just made me appreciate just how great of an adaptation the movies were. Especially with Effie, who doesn't play as big of a part in the books as in the movies. I'm also mad that the movies didn't include some of the big side characters like the Avox girl Katniss and Gale find in the forest, or the Mayor's Daughter.

    This edition of the book included some amazing illustrations that add so much to the story. There is one particular illustration in which Thresh kills Clove, and the facial expressions are devastating. Thresh is portrayed as such a young boy, which is contrasting to the movie, and it really just puts intro perspective just how cruel the Games actually are.

    I hope to finish the whole series in time for Sunrise on the Reaping, wish me luck!
