Historia
Zachary Quinto - best known for his role as the Nimoy-approved Spock in the recent Star Trek reboot and the menacing, power-stealing serial killer, Sylar, in Heroes - brings his well-earned sci-fi credentials and simmering intensity to this audio-exclusive novella from master storyteller John Scalzi. One day, not long from now, it becomes almost impossible to murder anyone - 999 times out of a thousand, anyone who is intentionally killed comes back. How? We don't know.

Historia
It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the 10th annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to out charm, outwit, and outmaneuver his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute. The odds are against him. He’s been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low.

President snow is low key most interesting character
Revisado: 09-08-23
This book takes a while to get into because there are so many characters the beginning. But if you can finish the book, it is one of the best in the hunger game series. President Snow is the most interesting character. I found him much more captivating than Katniss. Definitely worth a read!

Historia
Against all odds, Katniss has won the Hunger Games. She and fellow District 12 tribute Peeta Mellark are miraculously still alive. Katniss should be relieved, happy even. After all, she has returned to her family and her longtime friend, Gale. Yet nothing is the way Katniss wishes it to be. Gale holds her at an icy distance. Peeta has turned his back on her completely. And there are whispers of a rebellion against the Capitol - a rebellion that Katniss and Peeta may have helped create. Much to her shock, Katniss has fueled an unrest she’s afraid she cannot stop.

Poor narration of a fantastic book
Revisado: 07-22-23
I agree with many others here. The narrator does not do a good job with any other character. She is ok at reading Katniss and her thoughts. Her reading of any male character just makes them sound dumb. I wish there was a production with all the actors from the movies reading their parts!

Historia
Zack Lightman has never much cared for reality. He vastly prefers the countless science-fiction movies, books, and videogames he's spent his life consuming. And too often, he catches himself wishing that some fantastic, impossible, world-altering event could arrive to whisk him off on a grand spacefaring adventure.

Historia
In this award-winning Audible Studios production, Trevor Noah tells his wild coming-of-age tale during the twilight of apartheid in South Africa. It’s a story that begins with his mother throwing him from a moving van to save him from a potentially fatal dispute with gangsters, then follows the budding comedian’s path to self-discovery through episodes both poignant and comical.

Captivating but sad
Revisado: 04-19-17
A great book that really makes you think and care about the main character. The only downside is that it might be the saddest book I've ever read. I don't know. Read it yourself and give it a review. Maybe it just really hit home for me and it won't affect you as much.

Revisado: 04-11-17
Read the first three books, then this one. They increase in quality as the books go on, each more excellent as the next. One warning: if you can afford to wait, wait until all of the books are out. I'm going to go crazy now waiting for the next book

Revisado: 03-27-17
This is a good story. It's not excellent, but it's full of feel good stories and a man that speaks with an excellent Australian accent. I love the authors descriptions of character and scenes and the comedy throughout really helps keep the book alive.

Great book
Revisado: 11-18-16
Amazing book. I really enjoyed the world this author has created. The system of magic is interesting and complex. It rivals the universes of Harry Potter to say the least, and is certainly more creative. The characters are extremely interesting, with no single character being good or evil. A great book for most ages... maybe not too young though. I highly recommend and am starting with the second book right now.
As for the performance, I have to give another 5 star. The reader was excellent and engaging. He had convincing voices and didn't strain too much to make ridiculous voices that would've been distracting.
Overall great audiobook. Highly recommend.
