Book News: Origin Blurb, Divergent #3's Title, and Gameboard of the Gods Excerpt!

Important Bookish News coming up! 

Jen released the blurb of Origin, book 4 of her Lux series, today on her blog. I'd like to share it with all of you, as I am basically dying for this book. No like really--dying. The ending to Opal was a monster and I just need this desperately and ASAP. I will most definitely be pre-ordering and reviewing it!

So the blurb, I love it:

Daemon will do anything to get Katy back.
After the successful but disastrous raid on Mount Weather, he’s facing the impossible. Katy is gone. Taken. Everything becomes about finding her. Taking out anyone who stands in his way? Done. Burning down the whole world to save her? Gladly. Exposing his alien race to the world? With pleasure.
All Katy can do is survive.
Surrounded by enemies, the only way she can come out of this is to adapt. After all, there are sides of Daedalus that don’t seem entirely crazy, but the group’s goals are frightening and the truths they speak even more disturbing. Who are the real bad guys? Daedalus? Mankind? Or the Luxen?
Together, they can face anything.
But the most dangerous foe has been there all along, and when the truths are exposed and the lies come crumbling down, which side will Daemon and Katy be standing on? And will they be standing together?

I am madly excited for this book, I need to know what is going to happen with Daemon, Katy, and Daedalus. The cliffhanger in the last book drove me nuts, is still driving be nuts, and the Post-Opal-Stress-Disorder background will be hanging around on my twitter page until I get my hands on this book. Can't wait!!!
