In 2012, Insurgent won the Goodreads Choice Award for Best Young Adult Fantasy and Best Goodreads Author; in 2011, it won the Romantic Times Reviewers’ Choice Award for Young Adult Protagonist.

This is a complex story with lots of ins and outs. I would seriously recommend starting this series from the beginning with the prequel in Mercedes Lackey’s Harvest Moon: “Cast in Moonlight“, 0.5.
