THE PECULIAR STRANGER (TBOSAS)

by Penagerie

An ordinary teenage guy suddenly finds himself in a strange location and has met a group called 'The Covey'. How he got there, he had no idea. All he could remember was buying a prequel to The Hunger Games, falling asleep while reading it, and then waking up in this strange place. Inspired by Suzanne Collins' "The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes."
