         In Suzanne Collin's Catching Fire, Katniss is closer to death than ever before.  Peeta and her are now the cause of what may be the start of a rebellion against the capitol.  Katniss now has to go back into the arena for the Quarter Quell, but this time with other former winners from each district.  This time her only goal is to make sure Peeta gets out of the arena safely.  How will Katniss be able to survive the impossible Hunger Games that the capital made to kill Katniss?
