Insurgent, by Veronica Roth

Things go from bad to worse for Tris and Four in the second volume of Veronica Roth’s dystopian Divergent trilogy ,and the film version looks to be upping the stakes as well. If the teaser trailer is any indication, expect action sequences that are even bigger and better than those in the original.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth's second book in the dystopian Divergent series is another intoxicating thrill ride of a story, rich with hallmark twists, heartbreaks, romance, and powerful insights about human nature. As war and unrest surge in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves—and herself—while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love. Exclusive Edition.

  • An exclusive, never-before-seen video interview with Veronica Roth
  • The official Insurgent book trailer
  • "Free Four": This pivotal thirteen-page scene from Divergent, retold from Tobias's point of view, reveals unknown facts and fascinating details about Four's character, his past, his own initiation, and his thoughts about new Dauntless initiate Tris Prior.

THE DIVERGENT SERIES: INSURGENT raises the stakes for Tris as she searches for allies and answers in the ruins of a futuristic Chicago. Tris (Woodley) and Four (James) are now fugitives on the run, hunted by Jeanine (Winslet), the leader of the power-hungry Erudite elite. Racing against time, they must find out what Tris’s family sacrificed their lives to protect, and why the Erudite leaders will do anything to stop them. Haunted by her past choices but desperate to protect the ones she loves, Tris, with Four at her side, faces one impossible challenge after another as they unlock the truth about the past and ultimately the future of their world.

 One choice can transform you—or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves—and herself—while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love. 

Veronica Roth discusses the features of the Divergent Collector’s Edition including the evolution of Caleb, how she went from narrating as Tobias to narrating as Tris, and the way that fans have influenced, and now contributed, to the series with 8 pages of fan illustrated quotes from four divergent fans. 

INSURGENT, an intoxicating thrill ride of a story, rich with hallmark twists, heartbreaks, romance, and powerful insights about human nature.
