Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen regards it as a death sentence
when she is forced to represent her district in the annual Hunger
Games, a fight to the death on live TV. But Katniss has been close
to death before - and survival, for her, is second nature.
"The Hunger Games" is a searing novel set in a future
with unsettling parallels to our present. Welcome to the deadliest
reality TV show ever.
