Jennifer Lee Carrell: Interred with their bones

 

Kate Stanley is directing Hamlet in London where her old colleague wants to meet her and let her in to a secret that she is carrying. The secret is about William Shakespear but before Kate is let on into it her  colleague Roz gets killed and the theathre where Hamlet was supposed to be playd gets burned. 

From there starts the adventure that takes Kate to question was Shakespear really someone a lot of us assume he was, or was he a conspiracy that others made up. Whatever he/it is, it takes Kate to a place that is extremely dangerous and it'll make her doubt who she can trust. 

The book studies a lot of the written word that Shakespear has written - i found it at times a bit annoying because i've never been interested in the plays he has written. But overall the writer managed to include somewhat similar storyline of DaVinci Code into the book so that the story carried through and you really wanted to know what is really going on.

This is the last book of the Hunger Game-trilogy.

The game from the second book ended a little differently as before and Katniss finds herself staying at the sector 13, the one that she didn't believe existed.

All the other sectors have started to rebel and she, wanted it or not, is the leading figure of the fighting against the Capitol. Because of that a little different "Hunger Game" begins and she will fight along Gale, Peeta and others against the cruel President Snow and his ruling over the 12 sectors.

Overall the book was good, but in my opinion weakest of the three. But what i really did like about it that the story wasn't stretched into even more books. Trilogy is definitely enough for this story eventhough i do think i'll miss Katniss and would kind of like to know what their future holds..

This is the second book of the Hunger Games-trilogy and it continues around the same subject.

Although this time around Katniss has survived from the Hunger Games and believes she would be coaching the next gamers for the game just as Haymitch did for her and Peeta.

Unfortunately it doesn't happen so. She and some other old survivers are put back into the game and for the second time they all have to fight for to come back alive from the game... Read yourself what happens..

Northern America is divided into 12 sectors and the Capitol rules over every sector. Some of the sectors are richer than others and some - poorer.

Katniss lives in the sector 12. She is the older daugher of two from a family where the father has died in a miningexplosing. Her mother has been quite devastated because of that and that has made Katniss the "head of the family".

Sector 12 is very poor and Capitol doesn't really believe in feeding them, so they have to provide food to themselves. Katniss, for example, is quite good hunter and therefore her family survives little better than maybe some of the other families.

For the Capitols entertainment (and to let everyone from the sectors know their place in the world) the Capitol organizes the Hunger Game in every year. It means that from every sector a girl and a boy gets to chosen to take a part in a competition. Winning of the competition means that the Capitol will provide food for the whole section and they'll have the chance to live in luxury for a while. The downside is that in order to win the competition all the other competitors must be killed.

Katniss's little sister gets to be one of the chosen ones but Katniss offers herself instead and then the game begins...
