Publisher's summary

My name is Katniss Everdeen. Why am I not dead? I should be dead.

Katniss Everdeen, girl on fire, has survived, even though her home has been destroyed. Gale has escaped. Katniss’ family is safe. Peeta has been captured by the Capitol. District 13 really does exist. There are rebels. There are new leaders. A revolution is unfolding. 

It is by design that Katniss was rescued from the arena in the cruel and haunting Quarter Quell, and it is by design that she has long been part of the revolution without knowing it. District 13 has come out of the shadows and is plotting to overthrow the Capitol. Everyone, it seems, has had a hand in the carefully laid plans - except Katniss. 

The success of the rebellion hinges on Katniss’ willingness to be a pawn, to accept responsibility for countless lives, and to change the course of the future of Panem. To do this, she must put aside her feelings of anger and distrust. She must become the rebels’ Mockingjay - no matter what the personal cost.

The Hunger Games is the series that really brought young adult dystopian fiction into the forefront of popular culture. The novels—a trilogy and a prequel, written by Suzanne Collins—are set in the fictional country of Panem. To keep its citizens in line, the Capitol of Panem forces each of the nation's 12 districts to participate in the annual Hunger Games. In this fierce competition, young representatives from each district are pitted against one another in a televised fight to the death. Here's what you need to know about the dystopian setting, the action-packed plot, and the cast of characters, led by Katniss Everdeen.

Heartbreaking.

So many reviews say that this is the worst of the trilogy, but, for me anyway, this is right up there with the rest, just in a different way. There is no way that anyone could stay the same having endured what Katniss and Peeta endured and I think Suzanne Collins reflected that in the way Katniss is in this. She is heartbroken, depressed, sad, guilty and everything else and it's all battling inside her head. She is broken and maybe nothing will bring her together, but she is trying! My heart broke for her so many times, my heart broke for Peeta, my poor broken heart broke some more for their relationship and then my heart shattered at the end!! No matted how many times I read this book, it never fails but to affect my emotions!!

“You love me. Real or not real?" *Sigh*

Again, Tatiana Maslany narrated this brilliantly. She made Katniss come alive here and portrayed her brokenness perfectly.

Anyway, this series is phenomenal and I urge everyone to try it at least once!

Worth it

Tatiana Maslany was the perfect choice for these books. Listening to them with her narrating brought Katniss and all the horror that was her life and makes it sound real. Don't listen if you don't want to cry.

love the story and love the narrator

I've listened to the hunger games series at least a dozen times via a disc set I bought but this was the first time I've heard it read by Tatiana and it was soooooo much better. the parts I thought were narrated oddly by the other reader, i didn't think much of except to make fun of by how oddly it was read. now that I've heard Tatiana narrate, i will never go back. With the other narrator I was distracted by her odd choices of emotion at times that didn't fit Katniss's character , but with Tatiana's reading, I cried several times when I've never cried reading or listening to this series in the many before. she's pulled the emotion from deep in her soul for this one and I know it will stick with me. 😭

horrible narrator

Love the story, wished I would have known it was a different narrator. Not sure how she got this job, her voice is not audio quality. I want to ask for my money back but it looks this is the only version available in Audiblebook. l
Looked for the version narrated by Carolyn McCormick but is not available. Disappointed customer.

Mockingjay

I keep saying this but I forgot how different yet similar the books and movies are. Johanna and Katniss form this odd friendship in this book it was more meaningful I think than what was in the movies.

Even Katniss’s mother isn’t as shaky in the books as she was in the movies its odd to see her so capable. But you still really see that animosity Katniss has for her because of how she didn’t fight when her husband died. You can’t blame Katniss either she was what 11 and had to become strong enough to keep her family from starving.

I have been thinking about these books a lot in the last few days of listening and I don’t think we give Haymitch enough credit. If we take a look at him he was the winner of the second quarter quill and as we know there were twice as many tributes he had to outlive. Then he became a mentor and in 23 years he never had one be a winner so he had to see 46 tributes die while he watched. No wonder he was always in the bottle.

I also forgot how these books made my heart pump and how I felt reading now listening to them. You almost forget its children killing children for politics. It’s crazy.

I said it before but I will say it again I really enjoyed Tatiana’s narration she really did a great job give each book life. Especially with the subject matter, but also when the climax happens she really gave us those emotions. Very enjoyable to listen to.

I recommend this book to everyone. Although it is set in a future timeline the lessons of the 3rd book, this book are timeless. The narrator for these three books is amazing. I wish could have done some of the other books I have read

Beautiful

I love it
It’s really helping me through a tough time I’m high school and I think that Katniss really represents a beautiful young girl
Tatiana deserves a big Pat on the back for this it’s amazing she’s so good at voice acting and a role model for me because I want to do voice acting

Excellent performance and incredible series

The whole series was incredibly well written, rich and deep storyline with diverse, fleshed out characters. The narration was excellent, it wasn’t just “read” it was performed and very well done. Tatiana’s narration is very emotionally driven which works perfectly for a book written in the first person perspective. Would recommend to anyone who has either seen the films and enjoys them or just loves very original stories. As any book lover would say, the books are far better than the films!

Great story, great narration, dark truth

Can’t help wondering how many people realise they are not reading fiction. This is fact written as fiction - to make it palatable to the masses, Rich people splashing money on rubbish, while poor people suffer while making it for them. That’s history and current affairs, not fiction.

Amazingly read

I loved hearing the story I read almost 20 years ago being read by Tatiana. She naturally moves between each character’s voices, making you feel like multiple people are contributing to the story. Highly recommend all three Hunger Games books ready by her.

Hanging tree

I'm blown away by how good this series is. I was hesitant for a start as the narration put me off.
3 books later I think she did an amazing job. it's the first book that I've been really excited to jump back into. in-between sessions. the last 2 books I finished over 2 days. I didn't want to put it down.
great job team

Loved it

I’m a decade late to The Hunger Games series. I’ve only just listened to all the audiobooks and I am absolutely blown away by the quality of writing and of the spectacular narration. Although dark, it is absolutely absorbing. It has been such a thrill to be immersed in this fictional world. Titiana Maslany does an incredible job at the narration. Each character is so clearly painted in her voices. I only wish I had tried this series sooner.
I was so sad that this story ended. I wish there had been more closure at the end. More time spent with Katniss and Peeta as the heal together. The ending felt rushed.
