The OTHER Divergent stories

Has anyone read these other Divergent stories? I guess they are novellas or accompanying short stories? I hadn't heard of them until I saw them on iTunes. I'm wondering if they add to the main series at all or if they stand alone.

There's Free Four, The Transfer, The Initiate, The Son, and The Traitor.
I write sexy books. I read all the books. I love dresses & macarons.

Re: The OTHER Divergent stories

  • I read Free Four the other day and it's just one chapter of Divergent from Four's POV.  It was OK to read but for me it didn't really add much to the story.

    I am a bit mad that I paid $1 for it though.  I saw it was 42 pages so I figured it was a little more than one chapter.  It had an excerpt from Divergent and one from Isurgent.

    I have The Transfer on hold at the library because I don't want to get burned again!  I've not heard of the others so I'm interested if anyone has read them.

  • As much as I've enjoyed the series, I have no interest in reading the other stories. Especially a rehash of something I've already read from someone else's POV.

  • Only Free Four and The Transfer are out so far. 

    Free Four is just a retelling from his POV on a scene in Divergent 

    To me The Transfer is worth the $2-3 (I don't remember the price) because it gave me a greater understanding of Four and I LOVE him. 
  • I had actually planned to read these prior to starting Allegiant but never got around to it. I will probably still read them though.

  • Ugh. I don't like reading the same story from a different point of view. I'll most likely steer clear of these.

  • Only Free Four is from a different POV. The Transfer is from before Divergent starts. 
  • I haven't. I'm considering reading The Transfer but I'm kinda over all these novellas.
