LDS Geeks Podcast #41: Sunrise on the Reaping

I thought the next recording Russell and I did would be our first installment in our Animorphs re-read. Instead, we were both enthralled by the latest Hunger Games book. Check it out!

LDS Geeks Podcast #23: The 50th Hunger Games

Back in June, Suzanne Collins announced another Hunger Games prequel book, Sunrise on the Reaping. This book (and the subsequent movie adaptation) will focus on the 50th Hunger Games (aka Second Quarter Quell). From the narrative in the Catching Fire book we know much about these games already. So Russell and I got together to discuss it.
