As I suspected, this is a real page-turner. Well executed. On to the next one!

In a future North America, where the rulers of Panem maintain control through an annual televised survival competition pitting young people from each of the twelve districts against one another, sixteen-year-old Katniss's skills are put to the test when she voluntarily takes her younger sister's place.
"Es la hora. Ya no hay vuelta atrás. Los juegos van a comenzar. Los tributos deben salir a la Arena y ... luchar por sobrevivir. Ganar significa fama y riqueza. Perder significa la muerte segura. Que empiecen los septuagésimo cuartos juegos del hambre!"--Page 4 of cover.
