Why Divergent fall into this genre: Danger • Often compared to Hunger Games, Divergent is set in the future where a corrupt government is causing lead roles to go into rebellion. -this is where danger comes into play, as ‘Tris’ finds herself being hunted down by her own government for not conforming to their faction system.

Why Divergent fall into this genre: Good vs. Evil • As the Erudite faction attempt to use the entire Dauntless faction as an army against the current government, Tris and Four (lead roles) go out to stop the head of the Erudite faction and restore peace among all factions.

Why Divergent fall into this genre: Unfamiliar lands/situations to the character & audience • Set in the future. • Faction system • Enclosed City

Why Divergent fall into this genre: Fast-paced • As soon as the audience is introduced to lead roles and the basic scenario, new paths of the plotline emerge. There’s plenty of violence, guns, knives and chasing after ‘bad guys’. This immediately gives Divergent the ‘action-edge’.

Why Divergent fall into this genre: Hero/Heroine overcome incredible odds • First, despite being weak, Tris comes out on top of her initiate leader board due to her aptitude test and fear landscape tests. • Tris avoids being murdered by her own government as they are hunting divergents. • Tris and Four are able to stop the Erudite faction from turning the entire Dauntless faction into a murderous faction despite them being drugged with a susceptibility serum.
