Though protected by his unusual currentgift, once Akos and his brother are captured by enemy Shotet soldiers, Akos is desperate to get his brother out alive – no matter what the cost. When Akos is thrust into Cyra’s world, the enmity between their countries and families seems insurmountable.

“Roth skillfully weaves the careful world-building and intricate web of characters that distinguished Divergent, with settings that are rich with color, ripe for a cinematographer. Roth fans will cheer this new novel with its power to absorb the reader. Readers will be anxiously awaiting the sequel.”

—VOYA (starred review)

“Brimming with plot twists and highly likely to please Roth’s fans.”

—KIRKUS REVIEWS

“Roth offers a richly imagined, often-brutal world of political intrigue and adventure, with a slow-burning romance at its core. Roth’s fans will be happily on board for the forthcoming sequel.”

—ALA BOOKLIST

“Roth’s world-building is commendable; each nation is distinct, interacting with the current in ways that give insight into her characters’ motivations. Amid political machinations and forays into space, Roth thoughtfully addresses substantial issues, such as the power of self-determination in the face of fate. Readers will eagerly await a second installment.”

—PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

“The Divergent author builds out this new world—one reminiscent of Star Wars, with its discussions of ‘the current’ and ‘currentgifts’—while still presenting the stark brutality of the circumstances both protagonists find themselves in.”

—ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

“This duology offers shades of George Lucas sprawl and influence, Game of Thrones clan intrigue, and a little Romeo and Juliet–style romance. There are cliffhangers aplenty and dangling plot lines to lure us to the next book.”

—USA TODAY
