The novel, currently untitled, will go back to the years following the so-called 'Dark Days,' the failed rebellion in Panem.
NEW YORK — A decade after seemingly wrapping up"The Hunger Games," Suzanne Collins is bringing readers back to Panem. A prequel, set 64 years before the beginning of her multimillion-selling trilogy, is coming next year.
"With this book, I wanted to explore the state of nature, who we are, and what we perceive is required for our survival," she said."The reconstruction period 10 years after the war, commonly referred to as the Dark Days — as the country of Panem struggles back to its feet — provides fertile ground for characters to grapple with these questions and thereby define their views of humanity.
"Suzanne Collins is a master at combining brilliant storytelling, superb world building, breathtaking suspense, and social commentary," Scholastic Trade Publishing President Ellie Berger said in a statement."We are absolutely thrilled — as both readers and publishers — to introduce the devoted fans of the series and a new audience to an entirely new perspective on this modern classic.
The first three"Hunger Games" books —"The Hunger Games," ''Catching Fire" and"Mockingjay" — have sold more than 100 million copies and have been translated into more than 50 languages. The very title"The Hunger Games" has become a catchphrase for suffering and deadly competition, inspiring such headlines as"Trump's $1 trillion plan inspires 'Hunger Games' angst.
