Globally bestselling author Veronica Roth returns to the world of Divergent in this revealing short-story epilogue that takes place five years after the stunning events of Allegiant. As Tobias struggles to understand and move past his fears, the world he once knew has changed beyond recognition. Fringe-dwellers, ex-faction members, Bureau dropouts, and migrants now coexist in the rebuilt streets of Chicago. It’s a new, better world—one where he isn't sure how to belong. As everyone else seems to move forward, Tobias is still haunted by those who couldn’t. But new connections from old friends help him begin to heal—and mend. And don't miss The Fates Divide, Veronica Roth's powerful sequel to the bestselling Carve the Mark!

Divergent Series
Goes back to the start of Tobias's world, delivering the full arc of faction war and loss rather than one quiet aftermath piece.
Insurgent
Same grief-soaked dystopia and found-family factions, but mid-series and far more violent and action-driven than a reflective epilogue.
The sky is everywhere
Also about surviving loss and rebuilding connection, though contemporary and centered on romance instead of a ruined city.
Ik geef je de zon
Shares the grief-and-healing-through-people core, but swaps dystopia for a warmer, more lyrical family story with a queer love thread.
After You
Another story about a survivor stuck after a partner's death slowly finding new ties; adult, quieter, and often funnier.
Tower of Dawn
Also follows a broken soldier healing from trauma and guilt, but with far more spice, magic, and a full romance arc.
