Publisher Description
Emmy Award-winning actress Tatiana Maslany narrates a special edition recording of the first audiobook in the worldwide best-selling trilogy from Suzanne Collins!
In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by 12 outlying districts. The Capitol keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of 12 and 18 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 death before — and survival, for her, is second nature. Still, if she is to win, she will have to start making choices that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.
This special edition audiobook includes a bonus track Q&A with Tatiana Maslany!
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The Hunger Games movies are fantastic, but we still keep coming back to the books. That’s because Suzanne Collins’ cautionary tale of a near-future dystopian state where the powerful enjoy the spectacle of the powerless viciously fighting each other feels more chilling every time we read it. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen’s struggles to support her mother and sister—and her entry into the barbaric, state-sponsored fight to the death—are presented in Collin’s matter-of-fact tone, making them even more disturbing. Orphan Black star Tatiana Maslany’s engrossing narration shines a light on each character’s unique personality, heightening the drama and dread.
