Author:
Genre:
Science-Fiction & Young Adult.
The third and final book in The Hunger Games Trilogy.
The Story:
Katniss Everdeen, girl on fire, has survived, even though her home has been destroyed. Gale has escaped. Katniss’s family is safe. Peeta has been captured by the Capitol. District 13 really does exist. There are rebels. There are new leaders. A revolution is unfolding.
It is by design that Katniss was rescued from the arena in the cruel and haunting Quarter Quell, and it is by design that she has long been part of the revolution without knowing it. District 13 has come out of the shadows and is plotting to overthrow the Capitol. Everyone, it seems, has had a hand in the carefully laid plains – except Katniss.
The success of the rebellion hinges on Katniss’s willingness to be a pawn, to accept responsibility for countless lives, and to change the course of the future of Panem. To do this, she must put aside her feelings of anger and distrust. She must become the rebels’ Mockingjay – no matter the personal cost.

The Review:
The third and last instalment in the Hunger Games Trilogy is wonderful. Suzanne Collins has brought an end to the best-selling series. And what a surprising end. I didn’t expect that at all. The book is action packed and does not lack thrills and cliffhangers. The book was well written and lives up to the extremely high standards set by ‘The Hunger Games‘ and ‘Catching Fire‘. Sadly it all had to come to an end.
