Summary
The sea gives, and the sea takes away.
At fourteen, Finnick Odair is the amongst the youngest tributes ever reaped from District 4 and is ultimately destined, despite the odds, to bear the crown of Panem’s youngest victor.
But victory is not the end of the game—it is merely the beginning. As the Capitol weaves him into its golden net, Finnick becomes a symbol, a prize, a pawn in a game played by those far more powerful than him. Behind the glimmer of pearls and the glamour of the Capitol’s most esteemed venues, he drowns in the weight of what he has won.
For a boy crowned in foam, there is no safe harbour. Only the tide, rising ever higher, threatening to consume all that has been built up in one burst of fury.

Summary
He can feel the bones in his wrist grind against one another as he is led through the dark corridors of his home, illuminated only by the splinters of faintly glowing stones in the ceiling, masterfully carved and set in, and connected by small groves that paint beautiful shapes he can nearly make out by day time. Lady Aredhel, his mother, has told him once that they are made to resemble the stars, that she recognizes the constellation of the night sky in the ceilings of their home.
Lómion has chosen to take her word. How would he prove her wrong, anyway? He has never seen the stars.
Or, Eöl decides it is time to name his son.
