Yesterday, io9 published an excerpt of Blackout, the final book in the Newsflesh trilogy. Today, an intrepid Newsie hacked into the CDC computer system and liberated another file. For this one, though, you'll have to do a little digging...

Below is a puzzle whose answer reveals one of the five codes you'll need to access the second, top-secret document.

Advantage of poly families # <N+1>: More people to comment, more chances for the book, which we can then share around!

Poly family advantages indeed, fordprfct. I believe I am now obligated to comment!

Oh, I missed George and her non-plussed badassery A LOT <3 That's a great first chapter and an extra snippet (and ~secret codes were a really neat idea, even if my copies of Feed & Deadline are currently on another continent). So excited about the release date being moved closer! *counting days*

Oh my yes. But I will get a copy regardless, because I want to know more.

love this series so much. I read Deadline for 5 hours straight, the day after it came out, because I couldn't afford my own copy :/ but now I want the free one... :)

I'm moving on May 21st, and while packing I've had to institute a "no more books until after I move" policy.

May 22nd, I know what the first book I buy will be.
