Divergent 3 (Paperback)

Customer Review

Hard not to compare once again with this series Hunger Games. Especially with such a third and final volume. Also distressing, combining action, disturbing revelations, politics, tyrannical regimes and plans for revolution.

This last volume, even darker reveals everything about this strange social organization factions. Tris and Tobias, aided by some rebels cross the fence of their city. An act of rebellion. They go to meet people alive outside, the answers of meeting, and solutions. Everything will be only surprises. Their world collapses. They were quickly greeted by officials "Government Office well be genetic." they finally offer their explanations as expected on their divergence, life on duty, the different uses of sera. And everything takes a much disturbing significance. This is not the solutions available to them, but new problems. Their city of Chicago and the faction system, were a government experiment. All their actions were constantly studied, viewed on monitors. A design office that left SeNTRE kill without lifting a finger.

Henceforth, it is no more than a single narrative, but two. Tris and Tobias tell in turn. We have mutual views of each, which brings a bit more information about their personalities but especially on their perception of these revelations.

Tris is more heroic than ever, confident, determined in his choices, she is still quite authoritarian, with a real leader charisma. She begins to speak her mind loud and clear, such a sincere without thinking of the consequences. She wore a little on edge, I no longer found the flaws, weaknesses of the young altruistic a bit lost at the beginning. One feels that she has matured, its events have hardened. But sometimes it's a bit too much, especially when it is moral to Tobias.
He, by cons, appears more fragile a little more each day. This is the reverse of her trials, her past re-emerged into the open in the person of his mother, the completely upside. It is more and more sensitive, clumsy, naive. "Pet'sec, Always pet'sec". I loved always follow his highly nuanced story. One feels the boy who does not trust him, which is Tris support he needs to finally feel himself. The roles are completely reversed from the beginning. Yet, their love grows stronger, despite the crises. They are still in love and more dependent on one another. Which gives us pretty romantic scenes.

Finally, the political and social fabric finally denounced and explained brings darkness. A chaotic world, led by an intolerant government and manipulator. In short narrative making use of the good dystopian recipe in all its splendor, playing on fears. Are thus addressed fairly classic themes such as exclusion, intolerance, corruption, injustice, tyranny, under the bottom of genetic experiments.

The whole is a very intense third volume, with all the components to captivate the reader: action, romance, emotion and revelations.
Yet I found it a bit too cartoonish at times. Tris has tended to irritate me by his heroic side, it is always right, always quick to act for the good ... Too much for my taste. Finally, the political context was a little tired, the stories of "genetically defective" or "genetically pure" purity of wars, cities, margin ... A context too vague and confused, even cartoonish.

In the end a final volume still very captivating. Tobias A / Four crisper than ever. in addition, a lot of emotions and frustrations on the end. Indeed, an ending that leaves us messed me and, again, many recalled the third installment of "The Hunger Games."

Overall, I can not help but give my heart stroke, for it is with great sadness that I close the last pages of a series original and captivating youth, not necessarily falling into easy shortcuts or honeyed. Not again, as in Hunger Games, this story is tortured, if you wanted the cutesy, a nice story with a happy ending, go your way.
A choice of the author dared, but I like because it takes young readers for mature people capable of any cash.
