In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of
Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The
Capitol keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy
and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen 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.
