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 in the Hunger Games arena, she knows the odds aren't in her favour. Any wrong move will end her lifeand even the right moves come with a cost. But if she can survive, there is a chance the districts may survive as well has been close to death before. For her, survival is second nature.
