This Special Edition of The Hunger Games includes the most extensive interview Suzanne Collins has given since the publication of The Hunger Games; an absorbing behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the series; and an engaging archival conversation between Suzanne Collins and YA legend Walter Dean Myers on writing about war. The Special Edition answers many questions fans have had over the years, and gives great insight into the creation of this era-defining work.
In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV.
Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen regards it as a death sentence when she steps forward to take her sister's place in the Games. But Katniss has been close to death before-and survival, for her, is second nature. Still, if she is to win, she will have to start making choices that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

For the book itself - it is definitely worth it. Yes, it's a book for young adults, but it never really felt like one in any bad way. More just like a book about young people who by default are immature at times. The story is captivating, quick paced. A bit straight forward perhaps, but still with enough emotional depth. I really liked it, I am looking forward to hearing the other two, and I definitely get, why it's a bestseller.

Now, that I saw that there is an audiobook read by Tatiana Maslany whom I adore and kind of miss since Orphan Black, I had to listen to the actual book. And it was great! She is amazing, even though she was new to audiobook reading then. I think what she does best is how she puts emotion and the illusion of Katniss’s physical movement into her voice. When she sang as Katniss being heartbroken, she had me bawling.
The story is at once filled with external conflict and the well written inner life of Katniss. She is completely believable in her survival skills, but also in her uncertainty when it comes to navigating her relationships with people in the arena and back home. And in her difficulty with playing a part in front of the cameras.
To me the most impactful thing to see was that the kids with their differing sets of knowledge and skills COULD work well together. They COULD even learn to understand each other despite their class differences etc. and despite them being kept apart in their districts. It’s just because of the rules of the game that they’re forced to fight each other instead.
Tatiana Maslany + Hunger Games = Emotional Ride
