Allies and Enemies start with our Four once again on the search for something. This time it is a map, but they need to find a map to find the map! Nothing is easy or straightforward for these four. Although Ivo, Jaeger, Jadeth, and Emaranthe know and work well together, they are joined by a couple that could help or hinder them.
Full of action and enough twists and turns to keep everyone happy, this is a fast-paced Fantasy. Full of imagination and leading nicely to the next book. Definitely recommended.

Sent on an anniversary tour by President Snow, she and co-winner Peeta witness revolution brewing in the District's, before they are forced back into the arena once more for a 'quarter quell', where the tributes are all picked from previous winners of the Games.
As the middle part of a trilogy, this is a little bit on the slower side, more concerned with building the world and in linking the start and the finale together. Basically, an Act 2 of 3.
Less shaky cam this time around, though, replaced with wider sweeping shots!
