About this listen

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.

This is a novella told from Desmond Flynn’s perspective.

Great fairy tale from his pov

Shorter book concentrating purely on Des. From his mother's scale this rise to power, prophecies and finding and keeping his mate. We find out more information from his pov that we didn't get to see on book 1.
It's decided in 3 parts and part 3 plus the end of 2 have many scenes we saw from Callie's pov.
Des is amazingly sweet and vicious, it was perfection.
The narration was outstanding and I wish the other books were a duet and we had Nathaniel's voice in them too.

great narrattion, great story

I really loved the storyline of the previous books too and its nice to see/hear Des' backstory and the male narration is so stunnig, could be used in all the books. Love the buildup of all books, the storyline is very engaging, love the characters as well.

Blown away by this narration

Nathaniel Priestly has done a stellar job here. All the accents, the intensity, truly bringing to life the bargainer’s character. And most interestingly, I also appreciate Laura Thalassa’s writing more through his narration. Chelsea Stevens is also great as she has been so far. A perfect audiobook.

Other side of the coin

The story skips through Des’s life. The early years are more interesting, the later years more emotional. It’s fun as an extra in the series.
The narrator is perfect!

Great narrator..

Gosh, I think i fell in love with this narrators voice.. he was so good with every emotion that I had to leave a review..! The story with only his POV is eyeopening and crucial to the books. At first I was a bit apprehensive, but this is a must read! I really appreciate their love more now.. 😭😍
