Origin

13644052

Origin is the fourth novel in the Lux series. Jennifer L. Armentrout definitely did not disappoint her fans. Origin picks up where Opal left off. Katy has been captured by Daedalus. Daemon is heart broken and does everything in his power to get back to her. 

"I'll burn the world down to save her."

Katy has to go through painful tests, meidcal treatments, and confinement while under Daedalus conrol. Ultimately, Dameon gives himself up to Daedalus and the couple devise an escape plan. Little do they know that they're escape will not only afffect their lives, but will change the world forever. 

I will admit that I am a huge Lux fan! I love Katy and Daemon, and I was thrilled that this book focused so much on their relationship. You see a much softer (although still bad ass) side of Daemon, as he opens up more and shares his feelings with Katy. I was glad to see that the Daedalus captivity, while life changing, seemed to bring them even closer together. I was worried that Katy might become damaged and unstable, like Bethany. 

I thought the premise of the "origins," offspring of Luxen and hybrids, was brilliant. I saw it coming, but I think it was a great plot twist. Thankfully, Luc and Archer are likeable origin characters. The origin children under the Daedalus control were down right creepy. I'm hoping that origin babies can grow up fairly "normal" without any Daedalus interference (for Bethany and Dawson's sake).

The ending.... ugh! It was a big cliff hanger and leaves you wanting to have Opposition in your hands   right now. More Luxen are coming to Earth. Will Daemon, Dawson, and Dee abandon their families and friends and join their species? Will there be a war? So many questions... Come on Opposition!
