Hunger Games Trilogy (Box set)

Product Information

Katniss finds Peeta (who only allied with the Careers to protect Katniss) camouflaged into a river bank, having been injured by Cato, one of the Careers. As an older teen and in Panem with barely-enough money for her family to live off of, and with her father killed in an accident while at work, she is someone many readers look up to. For this reason, I lower what would have been (meta-genre in mind) a four-star book series down to three.

Although both of them receive a hero's welcome as a couple, Katniss is warned by Haymitch that the Capitol may take action against her for her defiance.The books she is most successful for in teenage eyes are The Hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay. It was named one of Publishers Weekly 's "Best Books of the Year" in 2008 [37] and a New York Times "Notable Children's Book of 2008". In writing The Hunger Games, Collins drew upon Greek mythology, Roman gladiatorial games, and contemporary reality television for thematic content.

I hate Gale with a passion (though I have nothing against Liam Hemsworth, 'cause he's smoking hot), so we are not even going to discuss this. In this horribly disturbing world, we are introduced to the protagonist Katniss Everdeen, a girl who volunteers to take her little sister's place in the Hunger Games. Once Katniss and Peeta become the last two survivors, the Gamemakers revoke the rule change to force one to kill the other for a dramatic finale. By February 2010, the book had sold 800,000copies, [15] and rights to the novel had been sold in 38 territories worldwide.Most of the good fiction/fantasy/scifi literature these days is coming out of the Young Adult and Juvenile areas, so every six months or so I round up the new stuff and go on a reading spree. In March 2009, Lions Gate Entertainment entered into a co-production agreement for The Hunger Games with Nina Jacobson's production company Color Force, which had acquired worldwide distribution rights to the novel a few weeks earlier. This is where people get confused in their reactions to the books, and those who focus on the plot and characters as if they were reading another Harry Potter often give up reading due to taking offense at the content and events of the books. Dunque in sintesi come tributi del 12 abbiamo: Katniss Everdeen, la cacciatrice e Peeta Mellark, il panettiere (come assortimento, poteva capitarci di molto peggio), comunque, I nostri prescelti prima della sfida si ritroveranno sotto l'ala protettiva di Haymitch, loro mentore, ovvero l'unico vincitore del 12, per descrivervi Haymitch vi dico questo: prendete la parte da alcolizzato di Rick Sanchez, moltiplicata per circa 0. I intentionally avoided the third and fourth films, seeing it would have been a tough experience for me.

However, the plot is very gripping and it’s difficult to stop yourself from reading ‘just another chapter’. Thinking one day about Alice in Wonderland, she was struck by how pastoral the setting must seem to kids who, like her own, lived in urban surroundings.Para mantenerlos controlados, las autoridades del capitolio cada año hacen una cosa llamada “juegos del hambre”, donde eligen a dos jóvenes de cada distrito y los encierran en un bosque hasta que quede el último.
