Praise for Veronica Roth:

"Roth skilfully weaves the careful world-building and intricate web of characters that distinguished Divergent, with settings that are rich with colour, ripe for a cinematographer. Readers will be anxiously awaiting the sequel."-- Voice of Youth Advocates

"Brimming with plot twists and highly likely to please Roth's fans."-- Kirkus Reviews

"Roth offers a richly imagined, often-brutal world of political intrigue and adventure, with a slow-burning romance at its core. Roth's fans will be happily on board for the forthcoming sequel."-- Booklist

"Roth's 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 'current gifts' - 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 cliff-hangers aplenty and dangling plot lines to lure us to the next book."-- USA Today


I am sure that following the roaring success of Carve the Mark, The Fates Divide is set to be the biggest YA novel of the season!
