À propos de cet audio

The author of Alice takes listeners through a dark tale of Peter Pan, who turns his best friend into his nemesis, Captain Hook.

On an island lives a boy called Peter and his band of merry lost boys, young forever. That is unless they get sick or killed by pirates or eaten by crocodiles or unless - inexplicably - they grow old. For some of them do grow old, and nobody knows why.

One of these boys is called Jamie, and he was the first boy that Peter ever brought to the island. Jamie's lived there for longer than he can remember, and it's not all fun and games. Peter thinks the boys are replaceable, that if one dies or grows up, he can swap in another from the Other Place, the place where he collects new playmates. Jamie looks out for the boys and takes care of them. He does everything Peter does not. Jamie tries to keep them alive because to him they matter. When Peter steals a boy who is too young, Jamie takes the boy under his wing. But Peter won't have that, for nobody will ever take Jamie from him. Ever.

I love the idea of stories inside of stories that have already been told.
This book appeals to my curiosity and imagination as to how characters become what they are. I just fell in love with the descriptive scenery and the boys. The feeling of being pulled back and forth and the dread and panic! It’s invigorating. I swear it’s worth the listen and I can’t wait to read another Christina Henry

Interesting listen

This was probably the best audiobook I have ever listened to. If you like alternative fairy tales, or ever enjoyed the story of Peter Pan then I highly recommend this book. It was so good, it had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I was a third of the way through the book soon after picking it up without even realizing how much time had passed. I just couldn't stop myself from wanting to hear the rest. Seriously fantastic.

AMAZING!

I could not stop thinking about this story in-between listening, and I'm going to be thinking about it for at least another week. The voice performance was perfect, and the book was well written. I'm grateful this book was recommended to me by two friends, because boy-howdy do I need to talk about it. If you like Peter Pan (and the Hunger Games) you're in for a treat.

I'm emotionally devastated in the best way

This is EXACTLY what I wanted. A gritty, real, heartbreaking explanation of the beginning of Peter and Hook and how they got to where they are in Peter and Wendy. Absolutely fabulous. The voice acting, the story, everything. I would really really REALLY love it if the author could also cap the whole story and give us what happens AFTER Wendy and her descendants leave the island years later. Perhaps Hook finally gets the peace he deserves?
THANK YOU for writing this.

I was staggered by how effortlessly and consistently the themes of this story were communicated in the context of a riveting story. I can see myself listening to it over and over. Quite an achievement.

Made my top 5

Story was fantastic!!! Bit of a twist compared to many other versions. The narrator is absolutely magnificent and would listen to anything he reads.

Excellent!!!

This is actually a really decent book. It doesn't try to recreate an entire world, but plays with the toys it's given. I found it overall enjoyable, the story, narration, characters, and dialogue.

This is a good book

Loved it. Samuel's narration brought me into the mind of young James. The struggles this boy went through due to the childish whims of Peter explains how a boy becomes a man. I'm sure this has been said before, but i got a Lord of the Flies meets Peter Pan.

Christina crafted a wonderful story, and journey with a colorful cast full of individual minds. Looking forward to more of Ms. Henry's books

Twisted and fun ride through Neverland

I loved this story so much and the narration was perfection. I felt sorry for the Jamie character and his wonderful arc.
