After the earth-shattering revelations of INSURGENT, Tris must escape with Four and go beyond the wall enclosing Chicago. For the first time ever, they will leave the only city and family they have ever known. Once outside, old discoveries are quickly rendered meaningless with the revelation of shocking new truths. Tris and Four must quickly decide who they can trust as a ruthless battle ignites beyond the walls of Chicago which threatens all of humanity. In order to survive, Tris will be forced to make impossible choices about courage, allegiance, sacrifice and love. Written by mapbryan
They escaped, they were safe, they were lulled. For some the two hundred-year old experiment was hijacked by opportunists. Look, the USA is 200 years old and has returned to an oligarchic, class-conscious system that we were trying to escape in 1776. All experiments gradually move to one extreme or another.
Let's see. Hunger Games divides the people by economic production going to the center. Free Trade is one product buying other products. A flow and an interaction. Instead the center provides Bread and Circuses (Panem et circenses) to lull the masses with competition between the Districts. Division and domination.
Divergent. The people in Chicago are divided by dominant characteristics will no unification into a whole person (think Inside Out, one emotion helps the other).
The lulling comes outside the city. No violence. Good clothes and food but strange living accommodations. The reason for the Chicago groupings comes out slowly. People don't remember how it started, but the elite knows and uses it to feather their nests outside of Chicago.
The last entry in this series should ramp up. I liked the acting and the story. It couldn't be whiz bang violent because usurpers are more subtle.
