Think of a time in the future when basically the world has went to the crapper. The United States has become a nation of one totalitarian capital (center) city and 12 outer districts. To keep the outer districts from rebelling, again, the capital imposes many terrifying economic and legal controls. One of those being the Hunger Games. Every year, two teens (one boy and one girl) are chosen from each district and forced to participate in the equivalent to a massive cage match to the death that lasts weeks on end. Super realistic sci fi with an emotional but in no way gratuitous punch. A bit depressing but nothing my teen readers can't handle. And, there is a follow up book on the way, maybe a whole series.
