This prequel to the original trilogy has quickly become a bestseller, dominating Amazon’s charts since its launch earlier this week. Readers are encouraged to explore exclusive editions available at major retailers, including an exclusive hardcover from Walmart that features a double-sided poster.
Navigating Walmart’s Exclusive Edition:
Finding Walmart’s exclusive edition may require some extra effort. Customers should select the "More seller options" link on the product page and choose the option fulfilled by Walmart to ensure the authenticity of the edition. Caution is advised against purchasing from resellers, as they may not provide the correct version.

Sunrise on the Reaping Hardcover Editions:
Sunrise on the Reaping is currently available in hardcover for $19.59 at select retailers. Walmart’s exclusive edition is priced at $21 and includes a timeline poster of Panem’s historical events. If this exclusive version becomes unavailable, Walmart also has the standard hardcover for $19.59, though purchasing directly from Walmart is recommended for authenticity.
Barnes & Noble is offering its own exclusive hardcover edition for $23, which includes a discussion featuring the author and her publisher, enriching the reader’s experience of the series.
This 400-page prequel takes readers back to the 50th annual Hunger Games, which introduces double the number of tributes into the arena, setting the stage for thrilling narratives reminiscent of the original series.
