The Hunger Games Trilogy is an extraordinary, ground breaking New York Times Bestseller
The Hunger Games stands as one of the best trilogy games book ever written in literature work. This Book set (Hunger Games) is just amazing and unputdownable. I loved the characters, the drama, the romance. The book falls under young-adult adventure science fiction category. This trilogy book set consists of The hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay. Both Hunger Games and Catching Fire works were New York Times best sellers and third book Mockingjay listed as US bestseller.
The Hunger Games Trilogy Book overview
The Hunger Games: The Hunger Games more closesly resembles the movie Battle Royale than I thought it would when I started reading. Story begins with a 16-year-old Katniss Everdeen, a girl from District 12 who volunteers for the 74th Hunger Games in place of her younger sister Prim. Also participating from District 12 is Peeta Mellark, a boy who loved Katniss the moment he laid eyes on her. As Katniss and Peeta battle the other tributes together, they pretend to be madly in love to gain favor with the audience. When the Gamemakers try to force the pair into a dramatic finale where one must kill the other to win, they threaten suicide and are subsequently both declared winners.
Catching Fire: Katniss learns that the Capitol is angry at her for her defiance in the previous novel, which started a chain reaction that inspired rebellion in the districts. For a special 75th edition of the Hunger Games, she and Peeta are forced into competing a second time with other past winners. They team up with a few other tributes and manage to destroy the arena and escape the Games. Katniss is transported to District 13, a place that is widely thought to no longer exist, but Peeta is captured by the Capitol, and District 12 is destroyed.
Mockingjay: The final book, Mockingjay, consists of a full out rebellion; the districts are at war with the Capitol and it's do or die in a showdown so explosive, readers never see it coming. Mockingjay - Collins hasn't wrapped everything up in a neat little bow and slapped a happy face sticker on the bow's ribbon ends nor, IMHO, should she have done so. Instead, Collins provides a conclusion that suits the story.
The Hunger Games Film adaptation:
Lionsgate Entertainment acquired worldwide distribution rights to a film adaptation of The Hunger Games, which will be produced by Nina Jacobson's Color Force production company. Collins adapted the novel for film herself, and her script is being revised by screenwriter Billy Ray. The film will reportedly begin production in late spring 2011 and will be released March 23, 2012.
About The Author: Suzanne Collins has had a successful and prolific career writing for children's television. She has worked on the staffs of several Nickelodeon shows, including the Emmy-nominated hit Clarissa Explains It All and The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo. Collins made her mark in children's literature with the New York Times bestselling five-book series for middle-grade readers The Underland Chronicles, which has received numerous accolades in both the United States and abroad. In the award-winning The Hunger Games trilogy, Collins continues to explore the effects of war and violence on those coming of age. Collins lives with her family in Connecticut.
