    <![CDATA[Katniss is a 16-year-old girl living with her mother and younger sister in the poorest district of Panem, the remains of what used be the United States. Long ago the districts waged war on the Capitol and were defeated. As part of the surrender terms, each district agreed to send one boy and one girl to appear in an annual televised event called, &quot;The Hunger Games.&quot; The terrain, rules, and level of audience participation may change but one thing is constant: kill or be killed. When Katniss' sister is chosen by lottery, she steps up to go in her place. <br/><br/>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[A truly riveting read. From the moment the first chapter ends through the rest of the book I could hardly put it down. What a terrible picture of a society it paints, all the more terrible because we may not be far from it. It raises many good questions. I can't wait to continue the series!]]></body>
