Sunrise on the Reaping (eBook)

"Sunrise on the Reaping is a propulsive,
heart-wrenching addition to The Hunger Games,
adding welcome texture to the cruel world of Panem ... This is the
project of dystopian fiction: to shine a light in tyranny's greasiest
corners and show how people - ordinary, determined human
beings - might take it apart" - New York Times


"Collins is an excellent writer, and there
are moments of surprising lyricism ... Sunrise on the Reaping
contains enough both to snare new readers and to satisfy the most
bloodthirsty fan" - Guardian


"A brutal, tender tale that adds depth to the franchise,
weaving pertinent themes of misinformation and propaganda
around the thrills and action." - The Observer

When you've been set up to lose everything you love,
what is there left to fight for?

As the day dawns
on the fiftieth annual Hunger Games, fear grips the districts of
Panem. This year, in honour of the Quarter Quell, twice as
many tributes will be taken from their homes.

Back in District
12, Haymitch Abernathy is trying not to think too hard about
his chances. All he cares about is making it through the day and
being with the girl he loves.

When Haymitch's name is called,
he can feel all his dreams break. He's torn from his family
and his love, shuttled to the Capitol with the three other District
12 tributes: a young friend who's nearly a sister to him, a compulsive
oddsmaker, and the most stuck-up girl in town.

As
the Games begin, Haymitch understands he's been set up to fail.
But there's something in him that wants to fight . . . and have
that fight reverberate far beyond the deadly arena.
