"Why be the sheep, when you can be the wolf?"

Mercy Thompson's life is not exactly normal. Her next-door neighbor is a werewolf. Her former boss is a gremlin. And she's fixing a VW bus for a vampire. But then, Mercy isn't exactly normal herself.

Divergent is set in a dystopian post-apocalyptic version of Chicago where people are divided into distinct factions based on human virtues. Based on the young adult book by Veronica Roth.
