Wendy Darling: Volume 1: Stars

"A dark twist on a familiar tale that readers will have difficulty putting down." (School Library Journal)

Wendy Darling has a perfectly agreeable life with her parents and brothers in wealthy London, as well as a budding romance with Booth, the neighborhood bookseller's son. But one night, while their parents are at a ball, the charmingly beautiful Peter Pan comes to the Darling children's nursery, and--dazzled by this flying boy with god-like powers--they follow him out of the window and straight on to morning into Neverland, an intoxicating island of freedom.
As time passes in Neverland, Wendy realizes that this Lost Boy's paradise of turquoise seas, mermaids, and pirates holds terrible secrets rooted in blood and greed. As Peter's grasp on her heart tightens, she struggles to remember where she came from--and begins to suspect that this island of dreams, and the boy who desires her, have the potential to transform into an everlasting nightmare.
