Then Ranger Halt shows up and takes Will as an apprentice. Rangers work directly for the King by collecting intelligence and protecting the kingdom.

Why I Don't Have a Dictator in my Story

I was watching the last Hunger Games movie, ​The Mockingjay, Part 2 with my husband. I've loved the Hunger Games and have read the book several times. If you haven't read the books or the movie, the Hungers Games takes place in the future with a controlling government. At this point in the story, Katniss is involved in a rebellion to overthrow the capitol and its leader, President Snow. The conflict between Katniss and President Snow starts to build in the second book. As I'm watching Katniss and President Snow make moves and countermoves against each other on the silver screen, a thought hit me.

I don't have a dictator in my book.

In my book, I have an oppressive government, the enemy to my hero Skylar Driven. She too is involved with the Opposition, trying to create a world free from United World Government. However, there is no leader of United World that is driving plot. My villain is a scientist, and while she is mailutive, she has no political or milarity  power.
