About this ebook

Fans of the Divergent trilogy by #1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth will be thrilled by Four: A Divergent Collection, a companion volume that includes four pre-Divergent stories plus three additional scenes from Divergent, all told from Tobias's point of view. 

This collection also makes a great pick for fans of the blockbuster movies who want to delve deeper into the character played by Theo James.

Readers first encountered Tobias as "Four" in Divergent. His voice is an integral part of Allegiant. Readers will find more of this charismatic character's backstory told from his own perspective in Four: A Divergent Collection. When read together, these long narrative pieces illuminate the defining moments in Tobias's life. The first three pieces in this volume—"The Transfer," "The Initiate," and "The Son"—follow Tobias's transfer from Abnegation to Dauntless, his Dauntless initiation, and the first clues that a foul plan is brewing in the leadership of two factions. The fourth story, "The Traitor," runs parallel with the events of Divergent, giving readers a glimpse into the decisions of loyalty—and love—that Tobias makes in the weeks after he meets Tris Prior.

Also includes three additional scenes from Divergent, told from Tobias's point of view!

And don't miss The Fates Divide, Veronica Roth's powerful sequel to the bestselling Carve the Mark!

Ratings and reviews

I read some of the first chapter (it was a sample, I did not buy the book). I loved the Divergent series, and I do love Veronica Roth's writing. I am certainly thinking of buying this book, if I can't find it at a library near me, or at a bookstore for a lower price or on sale. I feel like Tobias's view is very interesting, and I think I will enjoy this book. I recommend sampling it to get a feel for the whole book. And if you have not read the Divergent series yet, it is a MUST READ! Can't wait to read Four one day.

I loved to learn a new side of four but I imagined him a different way I guess not so sensitive. Nonetheless this book is interesting and great little read.

Although still a good book, didn't have the attention-holding power of the other three books in this series. Would love another installment to further develop the relationship of Tris and Tobias!
