Roth's fans will be happily on board for the forthcoming sequel."--<em>Booklist</em><br><br>"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."--<em>Publishers Weekly</em><br><br>"The Divergent author builds out this new world - one reminiscent of Star Wars, with its discussions of 'the current' and 'currentgifts' - while still presenting the stark brutality of the circumstances both protagonists find themselves in."--<em>Entertainment Weekly</em><br><br>"This duology offers shades of George Lucas sprawl and influence, Game of Thrones clan intrigue, and a little Romeo & Juliet-style romance. There are cliffhangers aplenty and dangling plot lines to lure us to the next book."--<em>USA Today</em><br><br>"The expansive world Roth introduced in the series opener gets even bigger in this sequel, with a bevy of additional characters, deepened secrets, and complex interplanetary politics. Fans will be eager for a conclusion to Cyra and Akos' story...and they are likely to be satisfied."--Booklist Online<br><br>Praise for CARVE THE MARK: "Roth skillfully weaves the careful world-building and intricate web of characters that distinguished Divergent, with settings that are rich with color, ripe for a cinematographer. Readers will be anxiously awaiting the sequel."--Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA) <strong>(starred review)</strong><br>
