The Hunger Games Series
Book seriesAbout
The Hunger Games series, written by Suzanne Collins, is set in a dystopian future in the nation of Panem, a post-apocalyptic version of North America. The story revolves around Katniss Everdeen, a young girl from District 12, who volunteers to participate in the annual Hunger Games—a deadly fight-to-the-death event—instead of her younger sister. The Games are a tool used by the oppressive Capitol to remind the districts of their failed rebellion and to maintain control through fear and manipulation. The series explores themes of survival, rebellion, and the effects of war on individuals and society. Through Katniss's journey, it delves into complex moral dilemmas, the exploitation of the poor by the wealthy, and the impact of trauma on personal relationships. The trilogy consists of The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay, each building on Katniss's transformation from a reluctant tribute to the face of a full-blown rebellion against the Capitol.
