La ambicin lo alimentar.
La competencia lo incitar.
Pero el poder tiene su precio.

Es la maana de la cosecha que dar inicio a la dcima competencia anual Los juegos del hambre. En el Capitolio, Coriolanus Snow de dieciocho aos, se prepara para su nica oportunidad de alcanzar la gloria como mentor en los Juegos. La antiguamente poderosa casa de Snow ha atravesado tiempos difciles y su destino depende de la remota posibilidad que Coriolanus pueda superar en gracia, astucia y maniobras a sus compaeros de estudios para ser el mentor del tributo ganador.

Las probabilidades estn en su contra. Se le ha asignado la humillante tarea de ser mentor del tributo femenino del Distrito 12, el ms bajo de lo bajo. Sus destinos estn ahora completamente entrelazados: cada decisin que tome Coriolano podra conducirles al xito o al fracaso, al triunfo o a la ruina. Dentro de la arena, ser una lucha a muerte. Fuera de la arena, Coriolanus siente pena por su tributo condenado al fracaso... y debe balancear su necesidad de seguir las reglas con su deseo de sobrevivir sin importar lo que cueste.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Ambition will fuel him.
Competition will drive him.
But power has its price.

It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the tenth annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuver his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute.

The odds are against him. He's been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined -- every choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favor or failure, triumph or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute... and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire to survive no matter what it takes.
