Paperback features over fifty pages of bonus materials, including a sneak peek of Insurgent, an author Q&A, a discussion guide, a Divergent playlist, faction manifestos, and more! In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago world, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent).
On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives.
For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is—she can't have both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself. During the highly competitive initiation that follows, Beatrice renames herself Tris and struggles alongside her fellow initiates to live out the choice they have made.
Together they must undergo extreme physical tests of endurance and intense psychological simulations, some with devastating consequences. As initiation transforms them all, Tris must determine who her friends really are—and where, exactly, a romance with a sometimes fascinating, sometimes exasperating boy fits into the life she's chosen.
But Tris also has a secret, one she's kept hidden from everyone because she's been warned it can mean death. And as she discovers unrest and growing conflict that threaten to unravel her seemingly perfect society, she also learns that her secret might help her save those she loves . . . or it might destroy her. Veronica Roth is the New York Times bestselling author of Divergent, the first in a trilogy of dystopian thrillers filled with electrifying decisions, heartbreaking betrayals, stunning consequences, and unexpected romance."

Reviewer: Mawut Achiek.
The leader is a play set at sagamoyo, a country in sub sahara africa, writen in third person voice in a political tone simple and clear to all kind of readers.
Tunu as protogonise of the play took the bull by the horned to advocate for the social justices alongside sudi, Mojoka as leader, is such corrupt to extent of denying justices to his people, kenga took a very vital role of being advisor with ill advice because he has a shares of national cake.
This is a instrumental political tool that shape the political view of the every giving set of community, it act as voice of the people and it make people to believe that there is power in unity of voices, whenever they don’t let themselves being divide on bases of tribes, wealth bribe or relationship.
Majoka uses his seat to luries people wivies, however, Sudi use his advocacy to fight the evils of high offices after the masses understand their voices matters.
Majoka and Kenga sold every socio-economic places within Sagamoyo.
The play is a confrontation of our inconsiderateness and negligence of our suffering while living in shallowness of ignorance at the expenses of our freedom and failed system.
The play demonstrate political emotional ability to fight Injustice and corruption with calmness yet persistent in maintaining a lightness of expression which put a state of both rational and theoretical will of the people.
This book reminds me of a time of constraints or even through the darkest hours of justice lives a hope for a people that fought for freedom and tranquility can still be achieved at last.
