HG Illustrated
Catching Fire
Illustrated Edition
Coming October 7, 2025!
The Hunger Games series appears for the first time in a deluxe illustrated edition, with spellbinding art from internationally acclaimed artist Nico Delort. (Scholastic Press, 2024)
"Certain illustrations made an indelible impression on me growing up, and the images are forever linked to books I love, including John Tenniel's classic drawings for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Fritz Eichenberg's wood engravings for Wuthering Heights. I'm thrilled with Nico Delort's striking black-and-white scratchboard artwork for The Hunger Games and feel it will have the same lasting influence on a new generation of Panem readers."--S.C.
The Hunger Games
Illustrated Edition
Now available!
"...the star of this edition is Delort, whose scratchboard art deftly imagines memorable scenes throughout the story while avoiding influences from the film series. These illustrations are new and wholly themselves, and the book's large format shows them off to great advantage. The black-and-white art brings a hefty weight to the poverty and despair of District 12, the poorest sector of Panem, while at the same time capturing the affected excesses of the Capitol and its citizens. Delort's talent is fully evident when capturing Katniss in her fire-tinged dress; readers will be able to feel the heat thanks to the dazzling interplay of positive and negative space. Fans of Barry Moser, take note: There's a new tribute in town. Vivid and well worth a look from new and returning fans alike."--Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW
