The Hunger Games

First in the ground-breaking HUNGER GAMES trilogy. Set in a dark
vision of the near future, a terrifying reality TV show is taking
place. Twelve boys and twelve girls are forced to appear in a live
event called The Hunger Games. There is only one rule: kill or
be killed. When sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen steps forward
to take her younger sister's place in the games, she sees it as a
death sentence. But Katniss has been close to death before. For
her, survival is second nature.
