Four: A Divergent Story Collection (Divergent, #0.1-0.4)

1, 2, Tris, Four.
The 4-part prequel story of Tobias Eaton, better known as Four; the young, brave and nearly fearless instructor from Dauntless. From the beginnings in Abnegation with his father Marcus, until his departure; the initiation, training and formation in the Dauntless faction along with Eric; the uncovering of the secret dealings with Jeanine and Erudite, and Evelyn and the Factionless; his rising and becoming of instructor, and his meeting with Beatrice Prior, the new recruit from Abnegation.
Overall this was a nice, engaging and decently entertaining little prequel. A rocky start vastly compensated by a solid middle and a fantastic final installment. It was very interesting to get to know in full detail Four’s journey through his pov; and so amazing to see Tris again, however briefly, bringing all those feelings that made Divergent so great.
I don’t think the four little chapters work at all as standalones, but as a novella and a whole, I think it’s more than worth the time. Forever Tris & Four <3
Highly Recommendable, for the Divergent fan.

1, 2, Tris, Cuatro.
La historia precuela en 4 partes de Tobías Eaton, mejor conocido como Cuatro; el joven, valiente y casi totalmente intrépido instructor de Osadía. Desde los inicios en Abnegación con su padre Marcus, hasta su partida; la iniciación, entrenamiento y formación en la facción de Osadía junto a Eric; el descubrimiento de los secretos tratos de Jeanine y Erudición, y Evelyn y los Sin Facción; su ascenso y conversión en instructor, y su encuentro con Beatrice Prior, la nueva recluta de Abnegación.
Dentro de todo esta fue una linda, atrapante y bastante entretenida pequeña precuela. Un comienzo débil ampliamente compensado por una sólida media parte y una fantástica entrega final. Fue muy interesante conocer en gran detalle el viaje de Cuatro a través de su punto de vista; e increíble volver ver a Tris nuevamente, aunque brevemente, trayendo todos esos sentimientos que hicieron tan genial a Divergente.
No creo que estos cuatro pequeños capítulos funcionen en absoluto de forma independiente, pero en su conjunto y como novela corta, creo que más que valen la pena el tiempo. Por siempre Tris y Cuatro <3
Altamente Recomendable, para el fanático de Divergente.

But Allegiant wrecked me. WRECKED me. I still remember the night I just laid awake on my bed. Staring at the ceiling and bawling my eyes out. 🙂

Ah how to forget this amazing series <3, even decades later the feelings still strong with this one! I know what you mean, Allegiant broke me too. I mean geez, who does that? Will never forgive Veronica Roth for that lol. EVER xD.

So glad you are loving it Saranya, and hope you keep enjoying the rest of the series until the end <3. Thank you!

Alexandra wrote: "I'm glad this was a nice one :) Excellent review, Federico!"Not perfect but overall it was good :). Thank you Alexandra!
It would have been better if Four got overall 4 stars, but I’m glad it ended on a high note. I still wish they would have made the second movie even if the first wasn’t that good. 😆

If I recall correctly there were even plans for a series but that didn't happen either. Oh well. We still have the books lol <3. Thank you Nancy :) !
Viene como un campeón con esta saga. Me alegra por usted, Fede.Espero que esté teniendo una linda semana.
