About the Book
"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 world"--Book Synopsis
The 8th book in the New York Times best-selling A TWISTED TALE series asks: What if Wendy first traveled to Never Land . . . with Captain Hook?
Sixteen-year-old Wendy Darling's life is not what she imagined it would be.

About The Author
Liz Braswell spent her childhood reading fairy tales, dreaming, and going on adven-tures in the woods with her cat. After majoring in Egyptology at Brown University (and yes, she can write your name in hieroglyphs) she promptly spent the next ten years producing video games. Finally Liz caved in to fate and wrote Snow and Rx under the name Tracy Lynn, followed by the Nine Lives of Chloe King series under her real name, because by then the assassins hunting her were all dead. She is also the author of Stuffed and several other Twisted Tale books, including A Whole New World, Once Upon a Dream, As Old as Time, and Part of Your World. She lives in Brooklyn with a husband, two children, a cat, a part--time dog, three fish, and five coffee trees--one of which has already produced a rather tolerable espresso.

This book was terrible. The author did not come up with anything new to enhance the original story but rather introduced odd concepts as filler. Wendy goes on a boring adventure in Neverland and Peter Pan doesn’t show up until way past 300 pages. Captain Hook is reduced to fool. I forced myself to finish the book, but save yourself the trouble and don’t bother. It’s an awful story with nothing exciting. It’s also gory at times. Buy a different book because this one is not the amazing alternative story that it should have been.
