This stunning paperback collection features Suzanne Collins's best-selling trilogy The Hunger Games. This set features all three books in the popular science fiction dystopian adventure series. Written from the perspective of sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, living in the post-apocalyptic nation of Panem, she unravels the oppressive regimes and the social inequality between the districts and the overpowering Capitol state. This collection features all three novels in the coming-of-age series. The first book in the series starts with The Hunger Games featuring Katniss Everdeen as she is forced to participate in the deadliest game show, surviving night after night of relentless dangers, fighting to the death where there can only be one winner. The book’s significant positive reception led to a movie adaptation released in 2012, featuring Jennifer Lawrence as the fierce Katniss Everdeen. Catching Fire is the second book in Suzanne Collins’s phenomenal, worldwide best-selling Hunger Games trilogy. Join Katniss Everdeen in another thrilling adventure as she must make difficult choices after her shocking actions during the finale of the deadliest Hunger Games. Little does she know that her actions have caused a much bigger stir than intended, affecting more than just her own survival but also causing unrest rippling throughout the other districts. In a twisting turn of events, the Capitol announces the 75th Hunger Games with a twist- tributes will be selected from the surviving victors of the previous Games. Suzanne Collins continues the story of Katniss Everdeen, testing her more than ever before, and surprising readers at every turn. A shocking revelation that echoes the extremes of a not-so-distant future, fans of the series will witness Katniss’ fight for survival, manipulation and her battle for redemption if she is to survive the Games once more. The series concludes with Mockingjay, the third and final book in Suzanne Collins’s dystopian survival adventure Hunger Games trilogy. After the shocking events at the end of Catching Fire, the action picks right up to Katniss’ rescue from the arena in the cruel and haunting Quarter Quell. If Katniss could go home, she would, except District Twelve has been destroyed and Peeta has been captured by the Capitol. District Thirteen has emerged from the depths of the shadows and myths and is plotting to overthrow the Capitol. Everyone, it seems, has had a hand in the carefully laid plans- except for Katniss. Drawn in the whirlwind of a revolution, the success of the rebellion hinges on Katniss’ willingness to be a pawn, to accept responsibility for the countless lives at stake, and to change the course of the future of Panem. To do this, she must put aside her feelings of anger and distrust. Katniss must become the symbol of the rebellion- she must become the Mockingjay- no matter what the personal cost. Fans of The Hunger Games trilogy will certainly enjoy our other range of YA dystopian box sets including...

The Grishaverse books by Leigh Bardugo have captured the imagination of readers around the world with their intricate world-building, engaging characters, and thrilling plotlines. Unlike many fantasy sagas, the universe is built from multiple short series set in the same world. This collection features the first book of the Shadow and Bone Trilogy and the complete Six of Crows duology. This collector’s edition three-book hardback set will look stunning on any reader’s bookshelf! Shadow and Bone is the first series in the Grishaverse, set in the land of Ravka, a place torn apart by war and dark magic. The story centres around Alina Starkov, an orphan and mapmaker in the Ravkan army. Alina discovers that she possesses a rare and powerful Grisha ability to control light, which brings her to the attention of the Darkling, the most powerful Grisha in Ravka. The Darkling is determined to use Alina's power to destroy the Shadow Fold, a dark and deadly swath of darkness that has cut Ravka off from the sea and its allies for centuries. As Alina trains with the Grisha, she discovers that nothing in Ravka is quite as it seems, and she must navigate dangerous politics and hidden agendas to save her country and herself. The Six of Crows duology, which includes Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom, takes place two years after the Shadow and Bone trilogy in a different corner of the Grishaverse, in the bustling city of Ketterdam. Here, readers are introduced to a new cast of characters, including Kaz Brekker, a ruthless and cunning criminal mastermind, and Inej Ghafa, a talented acrobat and member of Kaz's gang. When Kaz is offered a dangerous and potentially lucrative heist, he assembles a team of misfits and outcasts, including the sharpshooting Jesper Fahey, the Grisha Nina Zenik, and the former soldier Matthias Helvar, to pull off the impossible. As they embark on their mission, the crew of the Six of Crows must navigate treacherous alliances, deadly enemies, and their own complicated pasts. Along the way, they uncover secrets that threaten to tear them apart and must rely on each other more than ever to survive. Both series are filled with vividly drawn characters, intricate world-building, and heart-stopping action. Bardugo's writing is both lush and propulsive, drawing readers in with evocative descriptions and deftly plotted twists and turns. Each book in the Grishaverse is a masterclass in storytelling, filled with unforgettable moments that will stay with readers long after they've turned the final page. Fans of fantasy and adventure novels will find much to love in the Grishaverse books, with their richly realized world and complex, flawed characters. Bardugo's ability to blend high-stakes action with moments of quiet introspection and tender romance make these books perfect for readers of all ages, from young adult to adult. Overall, the Grishaverse books by Leigh Bardugo are a must-read for anyone who loves immersive fantasy worlds, richly drawn...
