Synopsis
Celebrate the 10th anniversary of Divergent with a special edition of Four, the fourth book in the #1 New York Times bestselling series that captured the hearts of millions of readers and inspired a series of major motion pictures starring Shailene Woodley. This edition features exclusive content from Veronica Roth and beautiful reimagined cover art from award-winning illustrator Victo Ngai. Readers first encountered Tobias as "Four" in Divergent and 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, from his transfer from Abnegation to Dauntless, his initiation, and the decisions of loyalty--and love--that Tobias makes in the weeks after he meets Tris Prior. "The same mix of tension, uncertainty, and hope that made the original stories irresistible. A welcome trip down memory lane." --Publishers Weekly "Fans of Divergent who can't get enough--and maybe even the rare reader who missed the first rush--will snap up this story collection told. It will fly off the shelves and for good reason." --ALA Booklist
