Roth skillfully weaves the careful world-building and intricate web of characters that distinguished Divergent. VOYA (starred review)
Roth offers a richly imagined, often brutal world of political intrigue and adventure, with a slow-burning romance at its core. ALA Booklist
Roths worldbuilding 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. (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 & Juliet-style romance. There are cliffhangers aplenty and dangling plot lines to lure us to the next book. (USA Today)
