    About this audiobook

    #1 New York Times Bestseller!

    In the second book of the Carve the Mark duology, globally bestselling Divergent author Veronica Roth reveals how Cyra and Akos fulfill their fates. The Fates Divide is a richly imagined tale of hope and resilience told in four stunning perspectives.

    The lives of Cyra Noavek and Akos Kereseth are ruled by their fates, spoken by the oracles at their births. The fates, once determined, are inescapable.

    Akos is in love with Cyra, in spite of his fate: He will die in service to Cyra’s family. And when Cyra’s father, Lazmet Noavek—a soulless tyrant, thought to be dead—reclaims the Shotet throne, Akos believes his end is closer than ever.

    As Lazmet ignites a barbaric war, Cyra and Akos are desperate to stop him at any cost. For Cyra, that could mean taking the life of the man who may—or may not—be her father. For Akos, it could mean giving his own. In a stunning twist, the two will discover how fate defines their lives in ways most unexpected.

    Praise for Carve the Mark:

    #1 New York Times bestseller * Wall Street Journal bestseller * USA Today bestseller * #1 IndieBound bestseller

    “Roth skillfully weaves the careful world-building and intricate web of characters that distinguished Divergent.” —VOYA (starred review)

    “Roth offers a richly imagined, often brutal world of political intrigue and adventure, with a slow-burning romance at its core.” —ALA Booklist

    Editor's Note

    Embrace your fate…

    The action and romance heat up quickly in this fated (yet thrilling) ending to Veronica Roth’s duology. Join Cyra and Akos once again as they fall deeper in love with each other, learn more about what their fates truly mean, and try to prevent a galactic war all the while.

      I really enjoyed some of the unexpected twists and thestorylinewasunique.
    • 5/5
      Beautifully written ending. Roth redeems herself for the pain of Allegiant.
    • 5/5
      I enjoyed this series more the second time I listened to it. Glad I gave it a chance again. I'll definitely revisit it again.
    • 4/5
      A great continuation of Carve the Mark. The plot twist half way through was unforeseen and mind boggling. The end left too much hanging though. It seems as if there should be a third book.
    • 3/5
      WTF is going on in this book, between the similar names or characters that have almost identical current gifts. Can I just say that I thought the term "current gifts" meant current as time. Like they would get new one at some other age. No, it wasn't until the end of this book "current" is as in electricity. That I'd jus far behind I am in this story.
    • 4/5
      A solid continuation of Carve the Mark. Veronica Roth certainly knows how to craft a compelling tale and this story, which picks up where the previous volume left off, has plenty of twists earlier on that keep one engaged. The ending was satisfying (better than the ending of the Divergent series) and I would be happy to visit this world again but hopefully not as a continuation of this story.
    • 5/5
      Space was not a finite container, but that didn't mean it was empty. Asteroids, stars, planets, the current stream; space debris, ships, fragmented moons, undiscovered worlds; this was a place of endless possibility and unfathomable freedom. It was not nothing, it was everything.
      I had some mixed feelings about the first book, but I entirely loved this one! It was so good!

      The inclusion of Eijeh and Cisi's perspectives really added a lot to the story and the world. We got to see so much more through them than just through Akos and Cyra, and it was greatly appreciated. I got my more planets wish and got some awesome visuals along the way (Ogra is my dream aesthetic)

      The themes were great in this, and the pacing was also great. Everything was great.

      I was hesitant about the Lazmet death retcon, but it was done really well and added a lot to the story. The plot twists were all super effective and the hard-hitting moments were pretty intense.

      Let me just say that I hate Isae Benesit and will never like her. The end.

      (note to Veronica Roth: PLEASE do not make this a trilogy! Two is fine! An unresolved political drama is perfectly okay to leave hanging. Don't pull an Allegiant on us again!)

      I purchased this book from @halfpricebooks to read. It was also a #buddyread with my bestie @mycornerforbooksand. All opinions are my own. ????? The Fates Divide by Veronica Roth. So I went into this book after reading Carve The Mark (Book 1) and totally thought I may have had a conclusion figured out. Ummm. I was wrong. Although all through part 1 my theories were holding strong and I was pretty sure what was coming but Part 2 blew all those theories out of the water. Cyra and Akos went in directions I didn't think possible because of the fates they were given upon birth and everyone around them seemed to pull closer inside the circle. The characters that were so soft hearted in book 1 became stronger and more outspoken in this book and even a few new characters are brought in that you are just as invested in. All in all the conclusion wraps up all of the characters and brings a closure so nicely you aren't left wondering what happened. Review also posted on Instagram @borenbooks, Library Thing, Go Read, Goodreads/StacieBoren, Amazon, and my blog at readsbystacie.com

      The sequel was not as good as the first. But I was still interested in the characters and how the story would unfold. I aslo wish that this wasn't the last we hear of these characters but it truely seems like the end of the story.
    • 4/5
      I really liked Carve the Mark, although I'd not given it much thought since reading it. I zipped through the sequel. It is a bit more straightforward and a bit less dark than the first book, because the characters are dealing with all that’s already gone wrong, rather than constantly navigating new disasters. In some ways, fewer new disasters is a good thing -- otherwise it would have been difficult for the story to conclude satisfyingly. I liked the twists and revelations, and the way the characters’ foretold fates played out. I liked the way it resolved some things and made other things more complicated.However… I was expecting it to pack more of an emotional impact. In hindsight, I wanted it to focus even more on the characters’ relationships with their families. I’d have liked to see more exploration of what it means to be the child of an oracle, and more of characters either processing their feelings about, or attempting to reconcile with, family. There are different ways that could have been done and different ways it could have played out, and still fitted with the plot as it otherwise stands.… it’s suddenly dawned on me that I wanted this to have the FEELINGS of a Melina Marchetta book. Alas, it does not.“Oh, honestly,” Teka groaned. “Is it some kind of rule of the universe that at least one Noavek asshole has to be alive at any given time, or what?”Cyra swivelled to face her. “What am I, then? Not alive?”“Not an asshole,” Teka replied. “Bicker with me much more and I'll change my mind.”
