Synopsis:
James Hook is a child who only wants to grow up.
When he meets Peter Pan, a boy who loves to pretend and is intent on never becoming a man, James decides he could try being a child—at least briefly. James joins Peter Pan on a holiday to Neverland, a place of adventure created by children’s dreams, but Neverland is not for the faint of heart. Soon James finds himself longing for home, determined that he is destined to be a man. But Peter refuses to take him back, leaving James trapped in a world just beyond the one he loves. A world where children are to never grow up.
But grow up he does.
And thus begins the epic adventure of a Lost Boy and a Pirate.
This story isn’t about Peter Pan; it’s about the boy whose life he stole. It’s about a man in a world that hates men. It’s about the feared Captain James Hook and his passionate quest to kill the Pan, an impossible feat in a magical land where everyone loves Peter Pan.
Except one.

Why I Need It!
If
you have been following my blog for a while then you are aware that I love
retellings and when I saw there was a Peter Pan retelling in the works, I just
thought to myself I must own it. I’m very intrigued to find out more about
Captain Hook and why he’s after Peter Pan. It seems like this book has a lot of
potential and I can't wait to read it! What are you looking forward to? Let me know in the comment section!
