The fifth volume – “Dawn in the Harvest Festival” – will go on sale on March 18, 2025. Suzanne Collins will return to Panem once again and time jump again. It is known when exactly the action of her latest book will take place.
“The Hunger Games” returns with a fifth volume
The fifth volume of “The Games” is to tell the events between “The Ballad of Birds and Snakes” and the story of Katniss Everdeen. This time, the author will focus on the fate of the first winner of the Games from the 12th district – Haymitch Abernathy and the 50th Games. The dystopian book will again feature philosophical threads and the sociology of power. Collins says this time she was inspired by the idea of David Hume considering issues of power and the governed.
In “Harvest Dawn” I was inspired by Hume’s idea of submission, or in his words, “the ease with which so many are ruled by so few.” There will definitely be more issues in history related to propaganda and the power of those who control the narrative. The question “true or false?” is more and more important to me every day – wrote the author in the information about the new book.
But not only the book from the world of Panem awaits fans of “The Hunger Games”. Along with the premiere date of the literary original, it was announced that a film adaptation would be made based on it. It will hit cinema screens a year and a half later – on November 20, 2026. Francis Lawrence, who also worked on the first part of the Jennifer Lawrence film series, is set to direct again.
The “Hunger Games” series is one of the most popular books from the so-called Young Adults groups. The four installments have sold over 100 million copies worldwide. The film adaptation of the first trilogy is one of the most profitable series in the United States, after “Harry Potter”.
