‘’ Ladies and gentlemen of Panem, for the Pageant of the one hundred and twenty fifth annual Hunger Games, or the fifth Quarter Quell, we have a special treat in store. Here in Panem, we are all depending on something, the Capitol depends on the twelve districts for goods, the districts depend on the Capitol for food and protection but also, the districts depend on each other. To highlight the fact that the districts of Panem are so dependent on each other, the tributes in this year’s Hunger Games will be randomly paired with one another. The pairs will be connected via a new Capitol invention that will mean when one of them dies, so does the other. This will mean that the pairs will have to protect each other, because their lives are in their partner’s hands and vice versa. As you may be wondering how this will affect the final outcome, I am very excited to announce that for the first time ever in Hunger Games history, two tributes will be able to win! Yes, you heard me correct. There will be two victors! You will all hear more about this after the Reapings have commenced, until then, I bid you all adieu. The one hundred and fiftieth annual Hunger Games has officially begun!’’

***CURRENTLY SEEKING REPRESENTATION*** (Comments and questions welcomed) Alexander Briggs lived much of his young life migrating from town to town, living off of the spoils of his untamed special ability, when one night his nomadic life is changed by one wrong choice that winds up landing him in a jam. Finding himself on the wrong end of an interrogating table, Alex agrees to join a secret society. A society, tightly woven throughout all of history and time. A society that promises to answer the questions he has about his past, and to help him hone in on his abilities in Gravitokinesis (the ability to manipulate gravity). They even tell him he'd be able to travel through time. But is this society really looking out for his best interests? Are they actually telling him the whole truth? Is it possible that they are harboring vital information of his 'dead' father's whereabouts? And could it be, that his ties to the dark secrets of the society are actually deeper than he could have ever imagined? The deeper Alex digs, the more lies and corruption he uncovers residing within the society he has vowed to be a part of. As Alex nears the truth, the more enemies he seems to uncover and the more danger he begins to elicit for those closest to him. Though not your typical sixteen-year-old boy, Alex must deal with the contemporary feelings shared by many of his peers like the desire to belong somewhere, making friends, and dealing with love found and love lost. Catch is, Alex must do this while navigating the fine line of blind obedience to authority and seeking out the truth.

Like the Hunger Games series? Then you'll love ''Man Hunt'' When Alice awakes in a small, bare room with nothing more than a letter, a backpack, a change of clothes and some survival gear, she doesn't know what to expect. She has no recollection of how she got to where she is, or even where she is and she can't help but feel frightened about the whole situation. According to the letter addressed to her name, her parents signed her up for a new televised game show in which twelve teenagers will be split into two equal teams. The teenagers will then take part in a slightly modified version of a childhood game they are all quite familiar with for the chance to win a sum of €1,000,000 for every member of the winning team. When Alice meets the rest of her group, they soon realise that they are stranded on an island and they have no other option but to cooperate. They quickly find the instructions and map their team has been supplied with and are forced to begin a game which they fear is darker than it may seem. The twelve teenagers can't be any more different, however they must push their divergence aside and hope that they have what it takes to win the game and return home with the money that could change their lives forever. In a tale of adventure, action and deceit; do Alice and her team have what it takes to leave the island as champions or is there a more sinister fate in store for them? Is this really just a game as their letters describe, or are there darker forces at work behind closed doors?
