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 is harsh and cruel and 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, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, 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 dead before-and survival, for her, is second nature. Without really meaning to, she becomes a contender. But if she is to win, she will have to start making choices that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.

THE HUNGER GAMES as you've never seen it before -- in a remarkable illustrated edition. Even at the age of sixteen, Katniss Everdeen knows it takes hard work, keen observation, and inner fortitude to survive in the world. Her home, District 12, is under the merciless rule of the Capitol, continually forced to pay after losing a long-ago civil war in the nation of Panem. One of the ways the Capitol keeps control is its annual Hunger Games, a televised fight to the death featuring two young tributes from each of Panem's twelve districts. This gruesome battle is meant to send home a chilling message: Rebellion will always be punished. When Katniss finds herself within the Hunger Games arena, she knows the odds aren't in her favor. Any wrong move will end her life -- and even the right moves come with a cost. But if she can survive, there is a chance the districts may survive as well... The Hunger Games has enthralled millions of readers in its examination of the price of war, human nature, and the powerful force of both love and resistance. Now it appears for the first time in a deluxe illustrated edition, with spellbinding art from internationally acclaimed artist Nico Delort.

Die Zentralregierung von Panem bestraft seine einstmals aufständischen zwölf Aussendistrikte seit deren Unterwerfung damit, dass pro Distrikt ein Junge und ein Mädchen zu den jährlich stattfindenden Hungerspielen entsandt werden müssen. In einer Freiluftarena kämpfen die 24 Jugendlichen auf Leben und Tod gegeneinander, bis nur noch ein Teenager übrigbleibt. Bei den 74. Hungerspielen tritt die 16-jährige Katniss Everdeen für ihre jüngere Schwester Primrose an. Der gleichaltrige Peeta stammt wie sie aus dem 12. Distrikt.

Un récit dur, violent et impitoyable, qui ne convient pas à de trop jeunes lecteurs. Toutefois, la mécanique narrative est d'une redoutable efficacité et le regard porté sur la société moderne (la téléréalité, les dictats de la mode, le culte de l'apparence) est on ne peut plus juste. Premier volet d'une trilogie dont les autres tomes sont appelés à prendre une tournure davantage politique (la lutte contre ceux qui s'abritent derrière la terreur suscitée par les jeux pour contrôler le peuple). [SDM] Dans ce qui reste d'une Amérique dévastée par les cataclysmes, un jeu télévisé sert d'instrument de contrôle à des maîtres impitoyables: douze garçons et douze filles, choisis au hasard dans les douze districts, doivent s'affronter à mort dans une immense arène lors d'une compétition qui dure plusieurs semaines. L'histoire est racontée à travers les yeux de Katniss, redoutable braconnière de seize ans, qui choisit de prendre la place de sa petite soeur dont le nom avait été tiré au sort. Elle devra faire équipe avec le fils d'un boulanger, plus gibier que chasseur. [SDM]

Capitol er den velstående høyteknologiske hovedstaden i staten Panem. Byen er omgitt av tolv distrikter der innbyggerne sulter og lider nød. Capitol styrer og kontrollerer utkantdistriktene med jernhånd ved å tvinge dem til å sende en gutt og ei jente mellom 12 og 18 år til de årlige sultelekene, en kamp på liv og død, direktesendt på tv. I den fattigste av provinsene bor 16 år gamle Katniss Everdeen. Hun har en lillesøster på 12 år, Prim, som hun prøver å beskytte så godt hun kan. Da Prim blir trukket ut til å delta i sultelekene bestemmer Katniss seg for å ta hennes plass for å redde henne. Det er det samme som å undertegne sin egen dødsdom. Fra nå av er det om å drepe eller bli drept. Det er bare en vinner. Historien er en blodtørstig variant av Robinson-ekspedisjonen, reality-tv med livet som innsats, men det er også en kjærlighetshistorie og et sterkt kvinneportrett. Fantasy for ungdomstrinnet.

Boekbeschrijving
Katniss Everdeen woont in het 12e en armste district van Panem, het land dat ooit bekendstond als Noord-Amerika. Met haar moeder en haar zusje Prim leidt ze een armoedig leven, getekend door het keiharde regime van het welvarende Capitool. Jaarlijks worden de Hongerspelen uitgevaardigd: 24 door loting aangewezen tributen, een jongen en een meisje uit elk district, gaan een strijd op leven en dood met elkaar aan. En dit jaar wordt Prim uitgeloot... Katniss weet dat de Hongerspelen een doodvonnis voor haar jonge zusje betekenen en besluit haar plek in te nemen.
Onder het oog van de hele bevolking van Panem, die de strijd als bron van vermaak volgt, begeeft ze zich in de gemanipuleerde arena. Gevangen in een meedogenloos web van bruut geweld, gemanipuleerde tv-beelden en corrupte politici komt Katniss voor de keus staan: hoe ver zal ze gaan om te overleven?
