“Collins has joined J. K. Rowling and Stephenie Meyer as a writer of children’s books that adults are eager to read.” —Bloomberg.com

Praise for THE HUNGER GAMES

“I couldn't stop reading." --Stephen King, Entertainment Weekly

“The Hunger Games is amazing.” --Stephenie Meyer

“Brilliantly plotted and perfectly paced.” --John Green, The New York Times Book Review

Praise for CATCHING FIRE

“Whereas Katniss kills with finesse, Collins writes with raw power." --Time Magazine

“Collins expertly blends fantasy, romance and political intrigue." --People Magazine

Praise for MOCKINGJAY

“Fans will be happy to hear that Mockingjay is every bit as complex and imaginative as Hunger Games and Catching Fire." --Entertainment Weekly

“Suspenseful... Collins' fans, grown-ups included, will race to the end." --USA Today

“At its best the trilogy channels the political passion of 1984, the memorable violence of A Clockwork Orange, the imaginative ambience of The Chronicles of Narnia and the detailed inventiveness of Harry Potter." --New York Times Book Review

“Unfolding in Collins' engaging, intelligent prose and assembled into chapters that end with didn't-see-that-coming cliffhangers, this finale is every bit the pressure cooker of its forebears. [Mockingjay] is nearly as shocking, and certainly every bit as original and thought provoking, as The Hunger Games. Wow." --Los Angeles Times

* “This concluding volume in Collins's Hunger Games trilogy accomplishes a rare feat, the last installment being the best yet, a beautifully orchestrated and intelligent novel that succeeds on every level." --Publishers Weekly, starred review

Finding A Flawed, Relatable Heroine and Her Hero

Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2018

Verified Purchase

My long ago 9th grader classical history students alerted me to this trilogy during a discussion on the Minotaur. I asked if anyone knew what a "tribute" was and every hand shot up. We had a sidebar on the Hunger Games. As soon as class was dismissed, I ordered my Kindle copy.

I immediately understood Katniss: the mindset to survive unthinkable tragedy, to distrust as first reflex, to protect others, to wrap oneself in emotional distance - yep I got that. Refusal to be a game piece, to surrender myself, That she was in her teens and I in my 40's mattered not a whit. Still, many years later, Katniss and I amble through a reunion - a literary walkabout is still a fresh experience. This is unusual for me. (The films, though entertaining and generally well done, can't compete with the story in my head. Though I confess the idea of drinking fruit juices recommended by s Donald Sutherland voiceover can give me chills.)

Peeta's deep love for Katniss and her misunderstanding of it in so many ways - especially feeling unworthy of it - I also understand. I am fortunate to have married my Peeta. He may not have Collins' character 's gift for the right words, I know he loves me always.

The other marvelous folks who populate the books are an odd sort of family now. Reading their collective story never gets old. And they always remind me to be my fierce though flawed, self and never be a piece in anyone's games.

Great Gift For the Avid Reader

Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2019

Verified Purchase

This was a gift for my 14 year-old son; he has become very particular about his book collection and prefers hardcover. I can’t say that I fault him for that. That having been said, I have read them myself on Kindle, and the series is excellent. It may be classified as “young adult fiction,” but as an adult I didn’t find it oversimplified to cater to teens (read: condescending), as is most “teen fiction” out there. To the contrary, the series is quite complex in its imagery at times, eloquently written, intricate in its plot development and, if anything, pushes young readers to expand their boundaries. I always take great joy in encouraging my son’s affinity for reading, and this was no exception. He blazed through them in about four days and has re-read them all at least twice each.

Required Reading For All Politicians And Military

Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2017

Verified Purchase

This book is, of course, written from the viewpoint of a young woman, but the lessons she learns, and the lessons she can not un-learn are, in our real world, critical for us to know, understand and never forget.

We as a species stand on the knife edge of our continued existence. We are not struggling in some post apocalyptic state, yet. However we are trying our damnedest to get there.

Our evolutionary heritage as a top predator has become our current evolutionary excess baggage.

Additionally the way our minds were constructed by natural selection to allow us to become a social species is a disaster when we consider how they allow us to be manipulated by fake, made up, and pure crap ideas that are just yelled loudly at us from sources that we do not, and can not question based on how we evolved to form social groups.

We must understand this if we are to persist as a species.

Our big brains do know how to self train to engage in contemplative scientific thought.

To the extent we require ourselves to exercise our big brains in this manner with a view toward curbing our evolutionary heritage that is preventing us from being sustainable: We will succeed.

To the extent we do not or can not: We will not persist.

Loved the Books

Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2021

I originally purchased this after watching the movies to preview them from my daughter to make sure there is no mature content for her to read them. While I have seen the moves for the hunger game, I found the book exciting and a little bit more detailed in the mind of Katniss. I’m reviewing the entire trilogy as a set event though it includes books you can buy separately. The books that make up this trilogy are
I loved that I could relate, feel abs even connect with the characters and their thoughts. I was surprised to find more information in the movie to expand on some of the dramatic scenes. I won’t be giving those away as I think everyone who loves a movie and then wants to read the books absolutely should.
I enjoyed this series, and I wanted the whole crew of people who became essential to our heroine Katniss. I enjoyed learning more about her thoughts and how she makes decisions. I really enjoyed the emotional connection she has to both Peeta and Gale. I also enjoyed seeing what the end result was of their love triangle.
This set of books was a great read and a fantastic movie. It didn’t have any explicit content besides the routine violence and descriptions of violence. I feel this set could be read by young adults and isn’t just for a mature audience.

They're books, what more is there to say?

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 13, 2020

Good quality books and case thingy.
I watched the films (on release) and, initially, enjoyed them. Then read these books and watched the films again. The books are much better than the films. The films are actually quite poor in comparison.
The story is, in general, quite good. Katniss gets a bit annoying towards the end because she never seems to grow out of her 'whiny teen' stage despite all the things she goes through, you'd think she'd grow up a bit but nevermind.
The prequel story/film should be interesting...

First two books were excellent

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 10, 2021

Verified Purchase

I thoroughly enjoyed the first two books of the trilogy, well written, good plot, but I think it should have stopped there. I really had to force myself to keep reading the third book, it was really heavy going.
It seemed as though the author had lost interest in her characters, I know I did!
It would have got five stars if it had stopped at book 2.

Better than the films!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 22, 2021

Verified Purchase

Usually people would read the books before the films, I however had the pleasure of watching the films first, which set expectations of how I thought the book was going to be. Luckily those expectations were concluded with satisfactory on a whole for both the film and the books as they had their own superiority, definitely worth trying and arrives extremely quickly!

But Katniss has been close to death before. For her, survival is second nature.

Wow!... better late than never...

I cannot remember exactly who first drew my attention to "the Hunger Games".... some friend I think it may be when the first film came out??... anyway, I poo-pah-ed it.... based on no more than it "seeming" to be some teen-flick romance type film...probably not my "cup-of-tea"
... and then i watched the film for the first time a week ago.... and was blown away!.... Im not even sure exactly why?... so, encouraged, I watched Catching Fire.... now Im fully gripped, drawn in and cannot wait to see the next installment.
...and now to the book.... do I need to read it??.... well, I "kindled" the trilogy and have just finished reading the first book...oh wow, what a truly brilliant story (despite having watched the film(s).... I have never read a story that has been written fully from the perspective of the lead character...its quite intriguing, its riveting, its extrodinarily beautiful.... I love it.
All I am really trying to say here that MAY be useful to anyone is regardless of watching films, do try to read the books...ok, I havnt hit the last two books yet but somehow... i know.. I wont be disappointed.
"May the odds be forever in your favour....." >:)
