The Divergent Series is a young adult dystopian science fiction novel series written by American author Veronica Roth. The series consists of five books: Divergent, Insurgent, Allegiant, and two novellas, The Divergent Series: Catching Fire and The Divergent Series: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. The story is set in a future Chicago that has been divided into five factions based on virtues: Abnegation (selflessness), Amity (harmony), Candor (honesty), Dauntless (courage), and Erudite (intelligence).

The series follows the character of Beatrice "Tris" Prior, a 16-year-old girl who lives in the faction of Dauntless. Tris is a Divergent, meaning she possesses traits from more than one faction. She is chosen to participate in a dangerous competition called the Trials, where she must choose a faction and risk her life. The series explores themes of identity, society, and the consequences of one's actions. It also delves into the political and social structures of the factions, as well as the personal struggles of the characters.

It has won several awards, including the Goodreads Choice Awards for Favorite Series and Favorite Dystopian Novel. The series has also been adapted into a film trilogy, with the first film, Divergent, released in 2014. The film adaptation received mixed reviews but was a commercial success. The series has been translated into numerous languages and has a dedicated fan base.
