It doesn't seem like something she would do. It worries me a bit though that you're saying there's two points of view. I do see why so many people were angry though. I had no issues with Allegiant really and what happened there. You never really know why, but you just notice that there are no books on the shelves but for those that were made into movies. More so because Roth was writing again! I feel like when authors make it big with Hollywood they quit writing for reasons. Nice! I was actually really excited for this book. But the more he and Cyra interact, the more they learn about each other, and the more they realize that they share common interests, interests that could incite wars. Akos cooperates because he wants to rescue his brother and flee. No one can touch her without feeling pain, but Akos can, because he interrupts the current (and all currentgifts are "fueled" by the current).

He is brought to help Cyra Noavek, whose currentgift is inflicting pain on others with her touch. He is not a killer, though he has killed to protect himself. Several years later, Akos is shaped into a warrior, but he has lost known of his humanity. Akos grows into his currentgift - he can interrupt the current (he can cancel it out, turn it off, that sort of thing). They are stolen for their currentgifts - Akos's brother Eijeh is the next oracle of the Thuvhe. They are taken to the Shotet stronghold of Urek, ruled by Ryzek Noavek, a ruthless tyrant and older brother of Cyra. When he is fourteen, Akos is captured, along with his brother, by the Shotet, who kill his father in front of him. The Shotet are more aggressive nomadic people that conquer various nations and planets. The Thuvhe are a peace-loving people living on Urek. This story is told by two characters - Akos, a Thuvhe, and Cyra, a Shotet.
