Sunrise on the Reaping revisits the world of Panem twenty-four years before the events of The Hunger Games, starting on the morning of the reaping of the Fiftieth Hunger Games, also known as the Second Quarter Quell. (Scholastic Press, 2025)
Sunrise on the Reaping
"With Sunrise on the Reaping, I was inspired by David Hume's idea of implicit submission and, in his words, 'the easiness with which the many are governed by the few.' The story also lent itself to a deeper dive into the use of propaganda and the power of those who control the narrative. The question 'Real or not real?' seems more pressing to me every day."--S.C.
#1 USA TODAY BESTSELLER!
"A Propulsive, Brutal 'Hunger Games' Is Here. And It's Great...Collins paints a shrewd portrait of the machinery of propaganda and how authoritarism takes root.''--The New York Times
"...it's as if Collins is asking us to reflect on how much we really know of our history, and how much power we have in ensuring that our current truths have a place in the future."--NPR
"It's a life-giving book, no matter what you think of the world we're living in now. Because it reminds us that unity is worth something. In some cases, it's worth everything."--People

"Certain illustrations made an indelible impression on me growing up, and the images are forever linked to books I love, including John Tenniel's classic drawings for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Fritz Eichenberg's wood engravings for Wuthering Heights. I'm thrilled with Nico Delort's striking black-and-white scratchboard artwork for The Hunger Games and feel it will have the same lasting influence on a new generation of Panem readers."--S.C.
