When everything you love is taken from you, what’s left to fight for?

As the fiftieth annual Hunger Games dawns, fear grips the districts of Panem. This Quarter Quell promises double the tributes—and double the heartbreak. In District 12, Haymitch Abernathy tries to keep his focus on survival and the girl he loves. But when his name is called, his world shatters.

Torn from his home and thrust into the Capitol, Haymitch finds himself alongside three other District 12 tributes: a close friend who’s like a sister, an obsessive oddsmaker, and the district’s most entitled girl. The Games are designed to destroy him, but deep down, Haymitch discovers a spark of defiance—one that could ignite far beyond the deadly arena.

The Hunger Games series redefined YA fiction and captivated millions across the globe. With four bestselling novels and five blockbuster films, it remains a worldwide phenomenon. Now, Sunrise on the Reaping, the highly anticipated fifth book, delves into the origins of one of the series’ most beloved characters.

The feature film adaptation of Sunrise on the Reaping is slated for release in November 2026.
