Number of Pages: 448

Synopsis: Katniss Everdeen should not be alive. But despite the plans of the Capitol, burning the girl survived and is now close to Gale, the mother and sister in District 13. Slowly recovering from injuries she suffered in the arena, Katniss tries to adapt to the new reality: Peeta was captured by the Capitol Hill, District 12 no longer exists and the revolution is about to begin. Now everyone is counting on Katniss to continue to play its role, taking responsibility for many lives and forever change the fate of Panem - regardless of what will have to sacrifice ...

Opinion: In the last volume of the saga of The Hunger Games, the rebellion has spread to all districts, and the rebels are in open warfare with the Capitol.
Throughout the book, we know the 13th district, and how it managed to survive until today. This is where are the leaders of the rebellion and pressure Katniss to be the face of the revolt, which she accepted in order to protect those she loves most. In this way, its image begins to be used by television in order to manipulate the masses so that they accept to join the girl in flames, and as such, to revolt against the Capitol.
We know, too, that humanity, in particular, the rebels are capable of do to win this war, to the point of committing the same atrocities that led, or justified, the beginning of this war. Atrocities with consequences and irreparable damage to all characters involved. The surprising thing in this situation is that everyone knew the cruelty of the Capitol, which we did not realize was that the rebels would be equal, fact that caused many dilemmas for Katniss until the end of the book.
Throughout the plot, we follow a Katniss trying to recover from past losses and traumas, to which are the most unimaginable loss, which justifies her emotional instability and doubts about everything that happened and all she has done throughout history, as well as be able to do what everyone expects it.
Another thing to mention, is the realism that the author presents to us, since it does not hide the horrors, the losses and the emotional and physical consequences of a war for their player. A final realistic, no place for fairy tales.
A book with an addictive and compulsive reading, and writing fluid and direct. Like its predecessors, an extraordinary book.
