Fantasy. Folklore. Young Adult Fiction. Young Adult Literature. What if Wendy first traveled to Neverland...with Captain Hook? Sixteen-year-old Wendy Darling's life is not what she imagined it would be. The doldrums of an empty house after her brothers have gone to school, the dull parties where everyone thinks she talks too much, and the fact that her parents have decided to send her away to Ireland as a governess??it all makes her wish things could be different. Wendy's only real escape is in writing down tales of Never Land. After nearly meeting her hero, Peter Pan, four years earlier, she still holds on to the childhood hope that his magical home truly exists. She also holds on to his shadow. So when an opportunity to travel to Never Land via pirate ship presents itself, Wendy makes a deal with the devil. But Never Land isn't quite the place she imagined it would be. Unexpected dangers and strange foes pop up at every turn, and a little pixie named Tinker Bell seems less than willing to help. But when Captain Hook reveals some rather permanent and evil plans for Never Land, it's up to the two of them to save Peter Pan??and his… (altro)

Compared to others in the twisted tales I found this one rather lack luster. Perhaps it is due to my fondness of the original Peter pan stories, but I found this book to be lacking. Can't quite put my finger on it but it felt like the usual spark of the series wasn't quite there. Whike there were some highly interesting portions, I would have to say as a whole I was a little dissapointed ( )

Van alle boeken van de Disney A Twisted Tale serie, vind ik deze de minst goede. Het verhaal vond ik moeilijk om te volgen en het kon mij ook niet zo veel boeien als andere verhalen.
Het was geen slecht boek, maar de andere delen van deze serie vond ik beter ( )

It maintains some of the similarities of the other “Twisted Tale” I read. There’s a definite strong slant on morphing these “damsels in distress” into “strong female characters”. The fortunate thing is that they keep their personalities (relatively) while doing this. Wendy is still a proper Englishwoman who overthinks things and talks a lot.

It plays fast and loose with the canon, cherry-picking from the book and movie (like Wendy’s house is here, but the jerk-mermaids are also here). It takes a while to actually get to Neverland, and when you do, it’s not as imaginative as I thought it could be.

It gets real sludgy in the middle. Clearly the author is trying to make a word count, and when you’ve got a basic quest plot, there isn’t a whole lot that happens to change the character or affect them personally. Hook is also a letdown, as he’s portrayed as sad-crazy, not funny-crazy.

It’s not disappointing, but it’s not blow your socks off. Take it this way–even the best of the direct-to-video Disney sequels were only middlin’, with thin plots and uninventive story paths.

And it cops out on the Indians. ( )

This book is for my mom and dad, who gave me things I truly love, like ducklings and computers (and not small, obnoxious dogs).

A giant thank you to the best agent in the world: Ginger Clark. You help me see into a bright future - and don't mind tidying up the present.
