After the mega success of the trilogy "The Hunger Games", the prequel novel by Suzanne Collins is now being filmed.

Parts of the shooting will take place in North Rhine-Westphalia.

My book tip

Matching the call for the film production of the new "Hunger Games" film, I present you the prequel novel "Hunger Games X - The Song of Birds and Snakes".

The fans are already looking forward to it and it's worth taking a look at the book.

Parts of the shooting will take place in NRW and extras are being sought.

Cities like Cologne, Duisburg and Hattingen have been chosen as locations.

Suzanne Collins "The Hunger Games X": About the Book

The story in The Hunger Games X: A Song of Birds and Snakes begins before the events of Katniss and Peeta.

We learn the history of Coriolanus Snow.

Ambition drives him.

Rivalry inspires him.

But power comes at a price.

It is the morning of the harvest of the tenth Hunger Games.

In the Capitol, 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow prepares to rise to stardom as a mentor at the Hunger Games.

The once-powerful Snow family is going through hard times, and their fate depends on whether Coriolanus succeeds in outdoing and outdoing his competitors and mentoring the victorious tribute.

However, the odds are slim.

He has been given the humiliating task of mentoring the female tribute from the run-down District 12 of all people - you can't fall any lower than that.

From then on, their destinies are inextricably linked.

Every decision Coriolanus makes could be about success or failure,

determine triumph or defeat.

Inside the arena it is a matter of life and death, outside the arena Coriolanus fights against the rising feelings for his doomed tribute.

He has to make a choice: to follow the rules or to survive - at any cost.

Synopsis for "The Hunger Games X: A Song of Birds and Snakes" by Suzanne Collins

The rest of the story is just as exciting as it was in the Panem series before.

We learn a lot of background events and can understand some characters better later in the story.

Suzanne Collins The Hunger Games: My Verdict

If you have already read the series "Hunger Games" with pleasure, you have come to the right place.

I like the perspective on the events before and I might like to read about the events after Katniss and Peeta as well.

I particularly liked the realistic portrayal of trauma.

This is also very well read in the series.

Worth reading for all science fiction and dystopia fans.
