Starred Review. Gr 7 Up--Every year in Panem, the dystopic nation that exists the location where the U.S. used to be, the Capitol holds a televised tournament in which two teen "tributes" from each from the surrounding districts fight a gruesome battle for the death. Within The Hunger Games, Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark, the tributes from impoverished District Twelve, thwarted the Gamemakers, forcing these to let both teens survive. In this rabidly anticipated sequel, Katniss, again the narrator, returns home to discover herself more the biggest market of attention than ever. The sinister President Snow surprises her with a visit, and Katniss’s fear when Snow meets with her alone is both palpable and justified. Catching Fire is split into three parts: Katniss and Peeta’s mandatory Victory Tour with the districts, preparations for that 75th Annual Hunger Games, along with a truncated version from the Games themselves. Slower paced than its predecessor, this sequel explores the world of Panem: its power structure, rumors of an secret district, as well as a spreading rebellion, ignited by Katniss and Peeta’s subversive victory. Katniss also deepens being a character. Though initially bewildered through the attention paid to her, she comes almost to embrace her status as the rebels’ symbolic leader. Though more of the story happens away from arena than within, this sequel has enough action to please Hunger Games fans and instead gives off enough questions tantalizingly unanswered for readers to become desperate to the next installment.

Reviewers were happy to report that this Hunger Games trilogy is alive and well, and looked forward on the third book in the series after this one's stunning conclusion. But they disagreed over whether Catching Fire was as good as the original book Hunger Games or needs to be viewed as somewhat of an "sophomore slump." Several critics who remained unconvinced by Katniss's romantic dilemma made unfavorable comparisons towards the human-vampire-werewolf love triangle in Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. But most reviewers felt that Catching Fire was still a thrill because Collins replicated her initial success at balancing action, violence, and heroism in a way that will enthrall young readers without giving them (too many) nightmares.
