This glossy magazine style companion is simply gorgeous. It discusses in depth from the release of The Hunger Games being an instant sensation, the characters of Katniss, Peeta and Gale now being household names. The story of a girl who volunteered as tribute, in order to save her sister Primrose in what would have been her eventual death. In a world where those that live in Capitol are indulging in luxurious parties, lavish fashions and an abundance of possessions, those who live within the districts barely have enough to survive. Katniss is the heroine of the young adult genre and whether your waiting to see Catching Fire in cinemas or want to relive the costumes, the tender moments or the beginning of a rebellion that launched a genre, you need the official movie companion.

If you are yet to see the film, the cinematic are simply stunning. The Official Movie Companion offers beautiful high definition images from the Victory Tour, The Quarter Quell and the outlandish fashions of the Capitol. The new arena is incredible, having been shot between Atlanta and Hawaii, to create a realistic tropical environment. How the Cornucopia was inspired by an abandoned Soviet monument, and how the stunning visuals came to be. It's a brilliant insight into the incredible franchise that fans will enjoy over and over again.
