It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the 10th annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to out charm, outwit, and outmaneuver his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute. The odds are against him. He’s been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low.

'There's an empty notebook lying on the table in the moonlight. It's been there for an age. I keep on saying that I'll write a journal. So I'll start right here, right now. I open the book and write the very first words: My name is Mina and I love the night. Then what shall I write? I can't just write that this happened then this happened then this happened to boring infinitum. I'll let my journal grow just like the mind does, just like a tree or a beast does, just like life does. Why should a book tell a tale in a dull straight line?'

keep in mind the audience of the book.
the world mortal engines builds is amazing and wonderful, however, I felt like it was inhabited by a weaker story and characters. this is mainly because I came in with a high expectation but then realised this book was written for kids to young adults.
Still, enjoyed the performance and the world despite it.

Excellent performance, decent story
The setting of Mortal Engines is very absorbing and interesting, and there is a lot of action to enjoy. The plot itself is a fairly standard YA action-adventure, but is well worth listening to, especially due to Barnaby Edwards excellent narration and voicework.

A different type of story
I decided to give this series a go after seeing the teaser trailer for the movie. From the trailer to what i have heard I can see there is possibly going to be some big changes from the book to the movie. The story is unique and is full of action and adventure a good listen or read.

A Certain Modern Classic
The dystopian adventure continues with the wonderfully advanced and creative mind of Reeve. New and yet familiar characters enter the fray of anticipation in this hyperbolic socio-political commentary about the greed of man that manages to outlast annihilation. And at the centre of it all is the bonding of opposites baring the same scars in one way or another.

Alright
I would have liked the main characters to have a little more impact on the story rather it happening around and to them.

Lives up to the movie hype
Bought this book after seeing the movie and it lived up to my expectations, the movie differered a little from the book but it was still a great listen. Can't wait to listen to the rest of the series.
