Starred Review. Gr 7 Up--Every year in Panem, the dystopic nation that exists in which the U.S. used to be, the Capitol holds a televised tournament in which two teen "tributes" from each in the surrounding districts fight a gruesome battle towards the death. Inside Hunger Games, Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark, the tributes from impoverished District Twelve, thwarted the Gamemakers, forcing these to let both teens survive. In this rabidly anticipated sequel, Katniss, again the narrator, returns home to find herself more the biggest market of attention than ever. The sinister President Snow surprises her using a visit, and Katniss’s fear when Snow meets together with her alone is both palpable and justified. Catching Fire is split into three parts: Katniss and Peeta’s mandatory Victory Tour over the districts, preparations to the 75th Annual Hunger Games, along with a truncated version from the Games themselves. Slower paced than its predecessor, this sequel explores the nation of Panem: its power structure, rumors of an secret district, as well as a spreading rebellion, ignited by Katniss and Peeta’s subversive victory. Katniss also deepens as a character. Though initially bewildered with the interest to her, she comes almost to embrace her status as the rebels’ symbolic leader. Though more from the story takes place outside the arena than within, this sequel has enough action to thrill Hunger Games fans leaving enough questions tantalizingly unanswered for readers to be desperate for the next installment.

Reviewers were very happy to report how the Hunger Games trilogy is alive and well, and all sorts of looked forward towards the third book inside series after this one's stunning conclusion. But they disagreed over whether Catching Fire was just like the original book Hunger Games or should be viewed as somewhat of an "sophomore slump." Several critics who remained unconvinced by Katniss's romantic dilemma made unfavorable comparisons on the human-vampire-werewolf love triangle in Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. But most reviewers felt that Catching Fire was still a thrill because Collins replicated her initial success at balancing action, violence, and heroism in a very method that will enthrall young readers without going for (too many) nightmares.
