Spinale, Wendy
2 Reviews
(4)
YA
Pete and Gwen lead the surviving Lost Boys to safety while the effects of the Horologia virus epidemic expand. In this sometimes muddled sequel to Everland, Spinale compounds her dystopic revision of Peter Pan with the addition of Alyssa and other figures borrowed from Carroll's Wonderland. Unexpected alliances and betrayals abound, and everything leads to a poison apple tree inside a magical labyrinth.

YA
In post-apocalyptic London, Gwen Darling struggles to protect her siblings from the Marauders, led by Captain Hook. Aided by Pete, who defends a hidden troop of orphans, Gwen learns she and her mother may hold the key to saving the world. Elements of Barrie's famous work frame (at times awkwardly) this series-opener. A creatively constructed adventure tale of survival and family.
