内容简介
The second book in the ground-breaking Hunger Games trilogy. After winning the brutal Hunger Games, Katniss and Peeta return to their district, hoping for a peaceful future. But their victory has caused rebellion to break out ... and the Capitol has decided that someone must pay. As Katniss and Peeta are forced to visit the districts on the Capitol's Victory Tour, the stakes are higher than ever. Unless they can convince the world that they are still lost in their love for each other, the consequences will be horrifying. Then comes the cruellest twist: the contestants for the next Hunger Games are announced, and Katniss and Peeta are forced into the arena once more.
在不可能获胜的情势中,凯妮丝从饥饿游戏生还,与比德携手返回家乡。依照游戏规则,往后的日子应该是安全、优裕的。但,他们的胜利是都城的羞辱,而谣传骚乱已在十二区之间滋生,凯妮丝竟然是叛变的象征人物。另一方面,狩猎伙伴盖尔和竞技伙伴比德,对凯妮丝的态度,只能是冰冷的深情。
令凯妮丝感到震惊的,是这场因她而起的动乱,她怕是无法熄灭的。当「胜利之旅」的日子来临,凯妮丝和比德在监控下巡回十二区,接受全民欢呼,攸关生死的赌注升高了。如果他们无法证明自己真的是在「无可救药的热恋」中,让都城没有丝毫疑虑,后果将不堪设想。
史诺总统居然亲临凯妮丝位于「胜利者之村」的新家,恐惧因此是具体的,凶兆成为事实。统治技巧展露无遗,恐慌蔓延全国。在杀戮中,凯妮丝必须宣布她和比德的婚约,那是都城多么欢乐的一刻啊!伪装的美丽与残酷、隐藏的现实、施惠国的权力结构、人民的痛与反抗,都将在家乡、都城和巡回中的每一站呈现。
然而,最惊人的是第七十五届饥饿游戏适逢二十五年一次的「大旬祭」,都城将有令凯妮丝和全国人惊愕的安排。她终于知道,一切已经无可挽回,连妹妹小樱和母亲也无法顾及,她必须离去。至于盖尔,她逐渐了解,他的意志原来这么坚定,已经下定决心。这一次,唯有拼得一死,才可能挽救比德。她以为,这是她眼前唯一的目标……
