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.

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 …

Matt K reviewed The Ballad Of Songbirds And Snakes by Suzanne Collins

A good prequel with a windy path

3 stars

This is a pretty decent book! It’s YA and if you appreciate it as such, it’s rewarding. It’s good to see a villain get a good backstory. The first half drags a little- takes forever to get to the actual hunger games, but the author is setting some traps for us to later stumble into.

It really picks up in the second half with some twists that bring Coriolanus Snow closer and closer to his true self as a sort of talented Mr Ripley.

The ending is vile and well done.
