Fighting Fire: The Capitol Games

"The suffering in the districts has been so extreme that these measures appear insufficient to the victims...in lieu of eliminating the entire Capitol population, we will have a final, symbolic Hunger Games, using the children directly related to those who held the most power."-Coriolanus Snow has been executed and President Alma Coin has her way. In an attempt to pacify the new district-led democracy, twenty-four children have been selected from the remaining Capitol population to participate in the Seventy-Sixth Hunger Games. Some, like the shy Rosemarie Snow, are high profile enemies of the state. Others, like the soft-hearted Petronius Lyre, were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. And others yet, like the elusive Themis Gossamer, have more secrets than anyone has bargained for. The Capitol Games have begun — for better or for worse.
