Praised by writers from Stephen King to Stephenie Meyer, Suzanne Collins’ New York Times bestselling Hunger Games trilogy is dark, captivating and deeply thought-provoking.
Part straight-up survivalist adventure, part rich allegory and part political thriller, the series has become a new YA favorite. A film version of the first book, The Hunger Games, starring Academy Award-nominated actress Jennifer Lawrence, was released in March 2012.
The Girl Who Was on Fire - Movie Edition offers even more to think about for readers already engrossed by the Hunger Games and its movie adaptation. From the trilogy’s darker themes of violence and social control to reality television, fashion and weaponry, YA writers explore in this collection the Hunger Games to reveal exactly how rich, and how perilous, protagonist Katniss’ world really is.
