The world building is perhaps a bit subtle, but I enjoyed it. I have read a lot of high fantasy lately and welcomed this sci-fi for a change. Their nations are each fighting to rule their planet and maybe other parts of the galaxy, too. Their gifts (and possibly their fates) bring them together however, it’s not under good circumstances. Each is blessed with a currentgift, and each is also fated. Roth tells the story in alternating viewpoints from the two main characters, Cyra and Akos. In addition to gifts, certain people are given fates, a reliable prediction of their future as seen by Oracles. The current manifests itself in certain people on each planet, giving them currentgifts, which take many forms. The ruling class is called Thuvhesit, and on the other side of the planet is a dissenting group called the Shotet.Ī force called the current runs throughout this galaxy. The population on most planets is united, but the planet our main characters inhabit is divided. I give it 4 stars! It’s a good read! In my opinion, Roth redeemed herself in many ways after the Allegiant debacle with this novel.Ĭarve the Mark takes place in a galaxy with nine unique planets. No spoilers in this review of Carve the Mark by Veronica Roth.
