Veronica Roth, the number one New York Times bestselling author of the Divergent series, is back!
Veronica Roth returns to the world of Divergent with The Sixth Faction, the first book in a thrilling new duology published by Harper Fire. The second book, The Last Testimony, will follow in February 2027.
In The Sixth Faction, Roth reimagines an alternate universe of the Divergent world. Still following the beloved protagonist, Beatrice Prior, it revisits the Divergent plotline, but with Tris picking a different faction at the Choosing Ceremony, setting her on a new path. Her actions draw her into an underground rebellion and into the orbit of a mysterious boy (who is strangely named after a number...) whose secrets could change everything.
With The Sixth Faction, Roth returns to the world and the characters that captured the imaginations of millions of readers around the world. The Sixth Faction offers a new perspective on a story that helped shape a generation of young adult dystopian readers.
For longtime and nostalgic Divergent fans, The Sixth Faction is an exciting opportunity to revisit Tris and Four and to view the Divergent universe through a new lens.
Further, this new series provides young and new dystopian readers with a portal into the fandom. It allows them the chance to experience Roth's world shaped by identity, loyalty, rebellion and the choices that define us.
