review 1: I had the good fortune to meet Andrea Jones at a Renaissance Fair, where she was selling her books. Curious, I purchased them and immediately set out to reading. In short, this book is fantastic. Jones' description of Neverland was so rich that I felt as if I were there. It was also quite realistic in how Peter Pan had a dark side-the children were to stay children, or else. And how Hook was portrayed! I can't decide if I want to slap him or stick around to see what he can talk others into. I loved Wendy, the main character, and thought it was smart for Jones to create the special power of her stories coming to life.All in all, I really liked the first book and am looking forward to reading her second, Other Oceans.
review 2: I picked this book up on a wh... moreim at a library conference and - much to my surprise - found myself talking to the author there at the conference and ended up thoroughly enjoying it. The cover art does not do this book justice, so just ignore the cover. The characters of Wendy and Peter are given much more depth and even the Lost Boys gain a hefty dose of personality. Also, the author's description of Never Never Land brings it to life with such detail you can almost see the terrain laid out in your mind like a carefully drawn map. Highly recommended if you're looking for something fun to read.Warning: this is basically fan fiction, using the 2003 film Peter Pan as inspiration. less
