Four: A Divergent Collection by Veronica Roth, reviewed by HS

fourFour is a book by Veronica Roth, the author of the Divergent series. This was suppose to be the book starting the series but came to a standstill and has now been released as a collection. The story is from the view of Tobias Eaton, known as Four in the series and shows what happened to him when he chose Dauntless. The first three parts are two years prior to the main story of Divergent, before Tris chose her faction. I really like the story because after I finished the first book I thought about how Four had been like before he met Tris. My favourite part of the story was when Four met someone from his past that he thought was dead. I don’t really want to spoil the story for everyone so this is all I’m going to write.

Veronica Roth writes action-packed dystopian novels set in an alternative version of Chicago, where society is divided up into five factions – Abnegation, Candor, Dauntless, Amity and Erudite – in an attempt to make a perfectly balanced society. The first in the series, Divergent, will be a film next year.

Sixteen-year-old Tris is forced to make a terrible choice. In a divided society where everyone must conform, Tris does not fit.

 

So she ventures out alone, determined to discover where she truly belongs. Shocked by her brutal new life, Tris can trust no one. And yet she is drawn to a boy who seems to both threaten and protect her.

 

The hardest choice lies ahead.

We also have the sequel Insurgent, in the Library. The third in the trilogy is due out in October this year, and is still untitled.
