Über diesen Titel

It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the 10th annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to out charm, outwit, and outmaneuver his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute.

The odds are against him. He’s been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined - every choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favor or failure, triumph or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute...and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire to survive no matter what it takes.

I really liked the Story. But the voice just dosen't Sound right. If you are listening to this and your Device has the Option to activate Dolby Atmos I would Highly recommend doing that.

Good Story

Suzanne Collins outdid herself with this story. I really liked The Hunger Games so I was expecting a lot from this book. Normally though prequels or sequels to a good story are often less good than the original story. For this book though this is definitely not true. The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes is independently of The Hunger Games a really good book.
The only negative aspect of the audiobook is that the narrator speaks women's voices in a very weird voice and when there were songs the whole narration of them was also a bit listless. But apart from that I really liked the narrator and thought that he was a really good fit for the voice of Snow.

Great Book! A must-read

Die Geschichte ist spannend erzählt. Collins schafft es wieder hervorragend, Personen zu zeichnen und diese mit Leben zu füllen.

Kleines Manko ist der Sprecher. Zwar macht er den Erzählteil sehr ordentlich, bei den Songs hat seine monotone, unmelodische Art einen ziemlich hohen Nervfaktor.

Gutes Prequel!

Story und Sprecher sehr gut .... für künftige Produktionen wünsche ich mir, dass die songs gesungen werden...

Stimmig

I liked the introduction of characters, also the clever art to describe the backgrounds and likings of each, without using describitory language. I liked the side chapters. I liked the way the characters avoided topics, which were traumatic, which is very human.

What I didn't like? The hushed ending. The sudden "Oh, wait a minute! This guy is actually a baddie! So let's make him evil. And forgetful. And paranoid. He was smart and calculating, but not anymoooore. He used to have consciousness? But did he though?".

That's sad. I wanted to start reading the series with this novel. I'm not sure I want to continue.

I would like a female voice actor to speak the female roles. So, a cast of two voice actors.

wasted potential

the lyrics were rather awkward spoken not sung, and by a man, but the rest was good

very smooth

Ich fand es teils schwierig am Ball zu bleiben, da alle Charaktere mehr oder weniger unsympathisch sind, bzw nicht vertrauenswürdig. Der Sprecher der englischen Ausgabe hat die Frauenstimmen total verhunzt. Die ewigen, sich wiederholenden Gesänge/lyrischen Teile waren nervig.

Plot twist

The speaker pitches his voice high and squeaky whenever he is reading words spoken by a female charakter. So unnecessary!

Don't distort female voices!

I don’t know what it is about the narrator that really irritates me. He sounds awfully monotone and the way he narrates the songs which make up a major part of the book just completely ruined it for me. I had a hard time focusing on the content because of this and I think I’ll buy the book and read it for myself instead because there’s a lot of details I missed.

Great story, terrible reader

A whirlwind of emotions. I really liked this book, especially bc it gave me an insight into the adolescent mind of one of my most hated characters from the earlier (or later) mockingbird books.
I really appreciated the fact, that it wasn't just a carbon copy of the earlier books (I dare say, that Book 2 and 3 were very similar to book 1) but it gives a new angle and many more insights.

The most shocking part for me was, that my feelings toward young Snow kept changing, Suzanne Collins did very well on that account.

For me a must-listen if you liked the mockingjay-books.

I didn't mind the speaker, not amazing but I didn't hear any Mickey-Mouse-female voices other comments mentioned.

I don't like Snow - I like Snow - Do I like Snow?
