This book made me long to reread Harry Potter, where something that seemed inconsequential and unimportant in book one suddenly made so much sense and was relevant to the story in book seven. I mean 'WTF, OMG, SHOCKER!!!', it's not as if this was utterly predictable and bound to happen. No surprise then that as they leave the city a truck pulls up with none other than Amar in it. Why, if you know you are being followed, do you do absolutely nothing about it? So Tori dies and I pretend like I care, I do not. And then seem completely shocked when they are shot at, resulting in just one of many pointless character deaths. But they are followed, and they are completely aware of this but decide to do nothing. Instead it is all too easy for them to jump on a train and make their way to the city limits. Well no, because to put even one little bit of real action in this book is just too much to ask for. But Evelyn doesn't want anyone to leave so that's going to be a problem, maybe a showdown of some kind. Tris, Four and the group will leave the city to discover what is out there and who Edith Prior wants them to go help. So here we go, Tris, Four and a group of others have joined forced with the Allegiant (terrible name) who want to get rid of Evelyn and bring the factions back.

Instead of dealing with that whole issue/story line, instead we shall create an almost identical one outside the city. We have gone from one crazy woman trying to control everyone to another one, exciting stuff! So will there be an exciting war, a battle between those who appose the factions and those who want them. Now here lies my first problem with this book, that storyline is basically just the same. Insurgent left us with Jeanine Matthews dead and Evelyn and the factionless basically taking over.
