ARC from NetGalley 
 I received free e-copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Darken the Stars was by far my favorite in the series. I wanted to get more of Kyon since the second book where he was stealing every scene he was in. He was the perfect villain in the first two books but in the Darken the Stars he shows his other, softer side. He is ruthless to his enemies but he is loyal to the people he loves. I also loved Kricket's growth in this book. She finally becomes mature, smart, independent and kick-ass heroine she had the potential to be. She owes her growth in big part to her relationship with Kyon. I found Kricket's relationship with Kyon a lot more fascinating than her relationship with Trey. Also the writing in the Darken The Stars is a lot more polished than the first two books and the Kricket's story developed in the direction I wanted it to go. I hope there will be another book in the series because Kricket, Kyon and Trey's story is not finished
