Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
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.
