When the Capitol reaps, it doesn’t just take lives—it rewrites destinies.
Sunrise on the Reaping delivers a gripping new chapter in the Hunger Games saga, introducing Maelor Greaves—a tribute who volunteers not for glory, but for love. Thrust into a brutal arena crafted from a drowned city and shattered truth, Maelor must navigate not just deadly traps and muttations, but the insidious power of the Capitol itself.
With every breath, Maelor defies expectation. He becomes a symbol—not through savagery, but through strategy, empathy, and quiet rebellion. And as his story ignites sparks across Panem, a new kind of uprising begins—not from fire, but from purpose.
Haunting, emotional, and fiercely relevant, Sunrise on the Reaping is more than a fight for survival. It’s a fight to reclaim the soul of a nation.
