The Bargainer Series Book 2.5: The Emperor of Evening Stars by Laura Thalassa

The Emperor of Evening Stars (The Bargainer, #2.5)
The Bargainer Book 2.5

In the beginning, there was darkness.
Before he met Callie, before he became the Bargainer, there was Desmond Flynn, the bastard son of a scribe. A boy born to a weak mother, cursed with little magic, and destined to marry a slave.

But fate had something else in mind.

Till darkness dies.
From the barren caves of Arestys to the palace of Somnia to the streets of earth, this is how Desmond Flynn, a fairy who began with nothing, became the Emperor of Evening Stars.

My Review: 5/5 Stars 

Des's story! So after reading the first two books in this series, we jump back to learn more about Des. And this book really gives great insight to his life, even starting with a single prologue chapter of his mother's decision to run. Then the story jumps to key moments in Des's life. His mother's death, his first meeting with his father, his time with Malaki, his big battle against his father. Then it takes to key moments when he comes to Earth after deciding he has to find his mate. The years are many and a lot happens. But the story continues to when he meets Callie and follows some memorable moments that we first saw through Callie's eyes but now through Des's. Plus some we never saw! Then it is only a few key chapters that lead up to how the previous book ended. Overall, it was a great collection of stories through Des's point of view. It gave us so many important bits of his life that showed us what shaped him and who he truly is. How strong his love for Callie is way before Callie realized it herself. I really enjoyed this book and now I'm very excited for the final book in the series.
