I just loved being inside Tobias' head because he was such an introvert in Divergent so it was nice to get to know him better. You get to learn how Dauntless was when Tobias was going through initiation versus Tris' initiation. I liked that this book was almost a prequel to the main series. It was interesting to get inside of Tobias' head and see who he was before he met Tris. However, I didn't really like the ending of the Divergent series so my excitement to read this book wavered a little. So I was excited when I bought this novel to read from Tobias' point of view. My Review: I have a thing for stories from multiple perspectives and I definitely favor the male perspective. Maybe just flames for Dauntless or flames burning the Abnegation symbol or some other way to resemble his fears. I think whoever came up with this cover could have come up with something that had to do more with the book itself and not just Tobias. The ferris wheel scene isn't mentioned in the book at all so there is really no point for it to be on the cover. However, after reading Four I'm not a huge fan of the cover. I wasn't 100% sure why it was on fire, maybe just to show how scary something like that is to Tobias or just because the Dauntless symbol is flames. It's Chicago with the ferris wheel that Tobias climbs in Divergent even though he's afraid of heights. The four pieces included here-THE TRANSFER, THE INITIATE, THE SON, and THE TRAITOR-plus three additional exclusive scenes, give readers an electrifying glimpse into the history and heart of Tobias, and set the stage for the epic saga of the DIVERGENT trilogy.Ĭover: When I first purchased this book I thought the cover was so cool.
