The third book in the ground-breaking original
Hunger Games trilogy. Against
all odds, Katniss Everdeen has survived the Hunger Games
twice.
But now that she's made it out of the
bloody arena alive, she's still not safe. The Capitol is angry.
The Capitol wants revenge. Who do they think should pay
for the unrest? Katniss.
And what's worse, President Snow
has made it clear that no one else is safe either. Not Katniss's
family, not her friends, not the people of District 12.
"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
