What is the Ballad of Birds and Snakes about?
Every saga has a beginning, and every rebellion needs the first spark. This is the Tenth Hunger Games. Back at the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus Snow intends to seize the opportunity of being a mentor and make a name for himself. The once-powerful House of Snow has fallen into decline and the future of Coriolanus depends on whether it can defeat its competitors. Only fortune is not in his favor, because he is given a humiliating task. He becomes a mentor to Lucy Gray Baird, a girl from District 12, the poorest of the poor. Their fates will now be inextricably intertwined – every decision Snow makes can lead to success or failure, triumph or defeat. There is a fight to the death in the arena. Outside the arena, Coriolanus begins to feel sympathy for the doomed tribute… Is it worth following the rules when survival at all costs is all that matters?
