Synopsis "The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (The Hunger Games) "

"Everything you would expect from Collins is here: fraught teenage love; plenty of violence... the themes of friendship, betrayal, authority and oppression will please and thrill" The Guardian
"It works beautifully... please don't make us wait another decade" The Times
Ambition will fuel him.
Competition will drive him.
But power has its price.
It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the tenth annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuvre his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute.

The odds are against him. He's been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined - ; every choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favour or failure, triumph or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute... and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire to survive no matter what it takes.

Three books, four films and one worldwide phenomenon, The Hunger Games changed the face of global YA.
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes was a global number one hit in hardback.
Don't miss the book that *everyone* will be talking about this summer.

Suzanne Collins is an American writer with great international recognition, known mainly for her successful saga The Hunger Games. Born on August 10, 1962 in Hartford, Connecticut, Collins grew up in a military family, which deeply influenced her perspective and the themes she addresses in her works.

Collins studied Drama and Telecommunications at Indiana University, in addition to obtaining a master's degree in dramatic writing from New York University. Her career began as a screenwriter for children's television programs, working on projects like Clarissa Explains It All and Little Bears. This period marked the beginning of her passion for telling stories that combined entertainment and meaningful messages.

In 2003, she published her first novel, Gregor the Overlander, part of the Underland Chronicles series, a fantasy saga aimed at a young audience. However, global success came in 2008 with The Hunger Games, the first book of the dystopian trilogy that also includes Catching Fire (2009) and Mockingjay (2010).

The Hunger Games is set in Panem, a fictional country where an oppressive government forces young people to participate in a televised fight to the death. The story, starring Katniss Everdeen, combines action, social criticism, and ethical dilemmas, resonating with readers of all ages. The trilogy has sold millions of copies in more than 50 languages and was successfully adapted into films, consolidating Collins as one of the most influential authors of the 21st century.
