Summary
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.

I have read all the books, and I have seen the movies as well ( both really great in my opinion) . I recently purchased all of the audio books to listen to at work to make the time go by - and I must say i was NOT disappointed. The Narration was spot on, I loved Tatiana Maslany. The emotion and grit she had made you feel like you were really listening to Katniss. She even sounds SO much like her, too. It was well done.

One of my very favorite series. And of course the book is better than the movie. It includes so much that the movie didn't have time for. I'm so happy I'm so happy that audio books.com had these titles.

an Amazing series!!! Kept me hooked the whole time

I like the book alot. To be honest i expected it to be better than the movie but i dont think it is. Now it does give a different perspective which you cant see in the movie which is pretty interesting. I dont quite like the peta voice but its alright, worth a listen for sure! I heard book 2 is better so cant wait to listen to that!

I am rereading this book, or listening rather, for a course at my University. It is really amazing being able to appreciate how well this was put together. I'm only on chapter 19 now but I'm already loving reliving it all and learning things I didn't before.

This isn’t just an audiobook reading, this is voice acting at its best. Tatiana Maslany is possibly the best narrator I’ve heard yet in any audiobook.
