First
Line: “I emerge from the simulation with
a yell.”
“Two
years before Beatrice Prior made her choice, the sixteen-year-old son of
Abnegation’s faction leader did the same. Tobias’s transfer to Dauntless is a
chance to begin again. Here, he will not be called the name his parents gave
him. Here, he will not let fear turn him into a cowering child.
Newly
christened ‘Four’, he discovers during initiation that he will succeed in
Dauntless. Initiation is only the beginning though; Four must claim his place
in the Dauntless hierarchy. His decisions will affect future initiates as well
as uncover secrets that could threaten his own future- and the future of the
entire faction system.
Two
years later, Four is poised to take action, but the course is still unclear.
The first new initiate who jumps into the net might change all that. With her,
the way to righting the world might become more clear. With her it might become
possible to be Tobias once again.”
My
Rating: 5/5
This book follows Tobias through his transfer into
Dauntless, his initiation and several trials that help him become the man we
know as Four in Divergent. The stories are put into
several different categories that show different values that Tobias has
completed.
Although
it’s been quite a while since I finished the Divergent series, books which are
told from Tris’ perspective, this book was a beautiful reminder of the world
Veronica Roth has created. It gives a different perspective of the faction
system, Dauntless Initiation, and the rebellion as a whole. Not to mention a
few of the amazing moments that Tobias and Tris shared through the series. Learning
more about Tobias’ life before leaving Abnegation helps the reader understand
his actions throughout the series.
I
only wish that this addition to the collection had come out, but I understand
how that would not have been possible, as the series had to gain a following
first.
THANK
YOU VERONICA ROTH FOR OPENING A NEW AREA OF DIVERGENT FOR THE FANS!
Thanks
for reading,
Love,
