The globally bestselling Sunrise on the Reaping storms the big

screen in November 2026!

'Sunrise on the Reaping is a propulsive, heart-wrenching addition

to The Hunger Games, adding welcome texture to the cruel world

of Panem . This is the project of dystopian fiction: to shine a

light in tyranny's greasiest corners and show how people - ordinary,

determined human beings - might take it apart' - New York

Times

'Collins is an excellent writer, and there are moments of surprising

lyricism. Sunrise on the Reaping contains enough both to snare

new readers and to satisfy the most bloodthirsty fan' - Guardian

As the day dawns on the fiftieth annual Hunger Games,

fear grips the districts of Panem. This year, in honour

of the Quarter Quell, twice as many tributes will be taken from

their homes. Back in District 12, Haymitch Abernathy is trying not

to think too hard about his chances. All he cares about is making

it through the day and being with the girl he loves. When Haymitch's

name is called, he can feel all his dreams break. He's torn

from his family and his love, shuttled to the Capitol with the

three other District 12 tributes: a young friend who's nearly a sister

to him, a compulsive oddsmaker, and the most stuck-up girl

in town. As the Games begin, Haymitch understands he's been set up

to fail. But there's something in him that wants to fight . . .

and have that fight reverberate far beyond the deadly arena. Three

books, four films and one worldwide phenomenon, the original Hunger

Games trilogy changed the face of global YA.

The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes was a global number one hit

in hardback on release w/c 18 March 2020 and the movie was number

one at the box office around the world in November 2023.
