Fans of the Divergent series by number-one New York Times best-selling author Veronica Roth will be thrilled by Four: A Divergent Collection, a companion volume that includes four pre-Divergent stories told from Tobias' point of view.

Listeners first encountered Tobias as "Four" in Divergent. His voice is an integral part of Allegiant. Listeners will find more of this charismatic character's backstory told from his own perspective in Four: A Divergent Collection. When taken together, these long narrative pieces illuminate the defining moments in Tobias' life. The first three pieces in this volume - "The Transfer", "The Initiate", and "The Son" - follow Tobias's transfer from Abnegation to Dauntless, his Dauntless initiation, and the first clues that a foul plan is brewing in the leadership of two factions. The fourth story, "The Traitor", runs parallel with the events of Divergent, giving listeners a glimpse into the decisions of loyalty - and love - that Tobias makes in the weeks after he meets Tris Prior.

... wanting to read this book since forever and I'm glad I finally got around to reading it

Reviewed in India on 15 May 2018

I've been wanting to read this book since forever and I'm glad I finally got around to reading it!

I finished it in around six hours, because I just did not want to let it go.

I'm a sucker for characters with a dark past, and therefore, Tobias had been my favourite character in the Divergent Trilogy. Reading a book from his perspective was therefore wonderful!

I loved the fact that the events that took place in this book weren't the same as the Divergent Trilogy. Four gives us an overview of Four's life before the arrival of Tris. We get to see him choose Dauntless as his faction, make friends and enemies.

There were a couple of scenes from Divergent too, but they were only a few pages long, and they were a sweet epilogue to the book!

Four isn't a full length novel, it's a collection of short stories that span the two years from Four's initiation to Tris' initiation.

Four is a must read for every Divergent fan, and I'm so glad my dad got the sudden urge to buy me a book, which was how I ended up with a copy of this utterly good book!

Just as the name states this is a collection with a treasure trove of stories of Four/Tobias Eaton. Featuring never before seen scenes and events from Four's point of view. From his transfer to Dauntless, to being offered said group's leadership to his first meeting with Tris and subsequent moments. Four has always been a hard character to decipher, this anthology tries to do that.

We see his determination, his resolve, his strength. We also glimpse fear, vulnerability and self-doubt. The collection highlights these points in its stories that answers a lot of questions regarding the issues in Divergent. Compassionate and kind. It felt great to enter Four's mind and see some of the point of origin of many of his traits that we value.

If you loved the Divergent trilogy then you should very much check this series. Fours; A Divergent Collection would ultimately prove to be a nostalgic return to the series and an express look in Four's mind. Excellent character development for Four and every other side characters present. It was every bit as emotional as it was suspenseful and action-packed and your money's worth too.

First thanks to Amazon for sending two bookmarks along with the book. And the packaging was great.
Now about the book. I read the Divergent trilogy and I must say that the first book was superbly written, the reason I fall in love with Veronica Roth. But Insurgent and Allegiant ruined my expectations. But Four is again superbly written, the Four's POV was touching. Loved the world building and I would say it's the best book in the series.

You need to read Divergent before you start this epic journey.

Once you know the story of Four from Divergent, you can plunge into his mysterious background and story which always seemed and remained a challenging mystery in Divergent. It's worth reading specially once you've finished the Divergent trilogy. It's gives you a bit more of the story and takes you way more into it.

The book was packed properly and the quality of the book was good enough. I paired it with the box set of the Divergent series with similar book covers to match the theme for a gift. My friend loved the set and was very happy with the books.

Four from his perspective (Can Be Read After Divergent)

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 November 2014

Verified Purchase

There are four short main stories; The Transfer, The Initiate, The Son and The Traitor in this book which run just before Divergent and alongside Divergent told from Four's point of view so if you are wondering when you can read these stories without ruining the main trilogy of books for yourself then you will be fine to read this book once you have finished reading Divergent.
There are also three very short stories at the end of this book too; "First Jumper - Tris!", "Careful Tris" and "You Look Good, Tris" which are a few pages long each but are a nice addition to the book and again we get to see Four's point of view in a few of the parts from Divergent.
I would have preferred to have read this book straight after Divergent if I had known it could be read then but I didn't and read this after the final book Allegiant. I would definitely recommend reading it earlier as it does add to the content of Divergent and I was a bit disappointed with the ending of Allegiant so I feel the shine was taken off this set of mini stories for me by the time I read it but I love the character Four and these stories are really interesting to read.

The Transfer tells the story of Four's own decision to leave Abnegation and you will already know the reasons why if you have read Divergent but it is really interesting to see how it all actually played out for Four and get a more in depth insight into what his life was like before Dauntless along with his own thoughts and feelings. We also meet Amar and learn how Four was given the name Four by him. A good short story and a nice insight in Four's life before Dauntless and Tris.

The Initiate tells the story of Four's own initiation into Dauntless and how the initiation process was before it was changed when Tris joins Dauntless later on. I loved where Four plays Dare and becomes friends with Zeke and Shauna along with Amar. We also meet a bit more of Lauren who is the Dauntless born trainer when Four is the transfer trainer later on. The rivalry between Eric and Four is also explored a lot more and we find out why. We also learn of the circumstances surrounding Amar's death and how Four narrowly escaped the same fate. A really good short story which I really enjoyed and revealed more information about parts I already knew along with others I didn't. A really good read for fans of the Divergent series.

The Son tells how Four discovered his mother wasn't dead and how he was lied to by his Father and the Abnegation about her. It also tells how Max originally wanted him for Eric's job and how Janine already had her claws into the Dauntless at that point. We read how Four starts to investigate what is going on between Max and Janine and how the Dauntless initiation process is changed from her inside mole Eric which later affects Tris' own initiation. We also hear how Four gets his tattoo with the different factions symbols on him. A really good insight into the Erudite interventions in Dauntless and how the pieces of the puzzle started to click together for Four along with his thoughts and feelings on discovering his mother is actually alive.

The Traitor gives Four's side of the visiting day meeting with Tris and her Mum and also shows him further investigating Max and Janine's involvement together. It tells how much Four actually helped Tris along with her initiation and how he protected her from being discovered as being a Divergent. It also tells how he continued to try to have the initiation reversed to the old ways before Eric's 'amazing' idea of only letting the top 10 initiates remain and how he tried to warn Abnegation of the attack to come along with his mother who both chose to ignore the information. We also see Tris' rescue from the Chasm from Four's point of view and have an inside sight into his developing feelings for her. I really enjoyed this story and yes I already knew pretty much all of it but again to have everything from Four's point of view was such a good read and very insightful.

A really good compilation of short stories which may be re-telling a lot of information already known from reading Divergent but are definitely worth a read to get Four's perspective on things along with additional parts that enhance the main trilogy. A definite must read for fans of the Divergent series.

I couldn't cope with another book like that, but I enjoyed Divergent enough to want ...

Reading this absolutely ruined Four for me. I didn't read Allegiant, as I found that by the end of Insurgent, I was unable to tell Tris and Four apart when they spoke, they just seemed to merge into one singular angsty character that was infuriating to read. I couldn't cope with another book like that, but I enjoyed Divergent enough to want to go back and see Four's perspective. Whilst it was interesting, I found the character to just be shockingly off. Instead of being this smart, prepared guy, aware of his surroundings he came across as a silly boy, making rooky mistakes and delivering really corny lines. Quite gutted that Veronica Roth couldn't do Four justice, as he was a great character.

An excellent side story

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 January 2021

Although Four's perspective and back story was interesting to hear, I'm not sure it added anything to the story. I would suggest reading it either between book 1 and 2, or 2 and 3. There are characters that are in the second and third book that are introduced in Four's stories but I'm not sure yet if it's essential for us to meet them before the main series. The writing style as always is fantastic and engaging and the insights into known characters was interesting.

Has anybody who wrote a review actually read this book, I have my droughts that the author actually wrote this or if the publisher put her under pressure to complete a follow up book,this is like reading a review of the books and leaves you thinking why? I have already the series do I need to tust take bits but then into a book again that I Already know. I am sure this is about making money on the back of something wonderful and in destroys a very good writer by saying do I trust you and do I want to buy and trust anything published in your name.
