I’ve been meaning to read Naomi Novik’s work for aaages so THE SUMMER WAR was a great intro. This novella has amazing sibling dynamics and a five star take on problematic fantasy oaths.
The Abhorsen and the King.
Reading All Systems Red as nature intended -at work, on the clock.

Author copy came in! My short story “The Monsters We Make” appears in High Stakes and Bloody Business published by @thewhumpyprintingpress. The book is full of wonderful vampire-themed whump stories. You'll cry. You'll be grossed out. You'll feel the catharsis.
So we all know the 75th Quell wasn’t just for Katniss now, right??
It was - get rid of Finnick, people tell him too much and like him too much
It was - get rid of Mags (she’ll volunteer to save anyone), she’s always been too much of a rebel and cares more about the tributes than the games (i.e. hiding Finnick from cameras)
It was - get rid of Beetee, we’re finally done with him (I want to know why he’s suddenly disposable though). But let’s make it as awful as possible and remind him every day what his son was feeling in his own last days
It was - get rid of Wiress (and also show the world what she’s become) because she never should have won (and we’ll show people what happens when you think you’re smarter than the Capitol)
It was - get rid of Johanna Mason, we killed everyone she loved and it didn’t break her enough so now we can’t control her
And of course, it was - get rid of those rebels from 12
But it wasn’t just punishment for Katniss. She had no idea how influential and volatile of a group they were.
Honestly, I feel like the 3rd Quell might have actually worked if the Capitol hadn’t decided to just send all the most rebellious and threatening victors into them. You can’t put 10+ people who rebelled in their own games back into an arena (and this time they’re all together) and expect it to go well for you???
So in Catching Fire, Peeta is discussing the Games from 5 years ago:
Annie's the one who went mad when her district partner got beheaded. Ran off by herself and hid. But an earthquake broke a dam and most of the arena got flooded. She won because she was the best swimmer.
I'm not certain that this was contrived by the gamemakers. The audience loves bloodshed, and I doubt watching a bunch of kids drowning is the height of entertainment for the Capitol.
And yeah, maybe the gamemakers happened to build their highly controlled arena directly on a fault line and there just so happened to be an earthquake during the Games.
But given what we know from Sunrise on the Reaping, I can't help but suspect this was another attempt to sabotage the arena.
