Divergent #3.5The main trilogy should be read in the order: Divergent, Insurgent, and then Allegiant. There is also a companion book, Four: A Divergent Collection, which provides backstory from another character's perspective and can be read after the main trilogy.
The series has been adapted into a film series, with movies for Divergent, Insurgent, and Allegiant. The final book, Allegiant, was split into two films, though the second part was ultimately not released.
While Veronica Roth has written other dystopian and fantasy novels, the Divergent series is a standalone story and does not directly connect to her other works in terms of characters or shared universe.
The series begins with a focus on faction society and individual identity, then expands to explore the larger world outside the city and the origins of the faction system, challenging initial assumptions about their society.
The Divergent series has three main entries: Divergent, Insurgent, and Allegiant. There is also a prequel, Four, which provides additional context.
