The acclaimed artist Brom brilliantly displays his multiple extraordinary talents in The Child Thief—a spellbinding re-imagining of the beloved Peter Pan story that carries readers through the perilous mist separating our world from the realm of Faerie. As Gregory Maguire did with his New York Times bestselling Wicked novels, Brom takes a classic children’s tale and turns it inside-out, painting a Neverland that, like Maguire’s Oz, is darker, richer, more complex than innocent world J.M. Barrie originally conceived. An ingeniously executed literary feat, illustrated with Brom’s sumptuous artwork, The Child Thief is contemporary fantasy at its finest—casting Peter Pan, the Lost Boys, even Captain Hook and his crew in a breathtaking new light.

En unik tolkning av Peter pan. Författaren lyckas väva in keltisk mytologi tillsammans med kritik av idealism och fanatism. Emellanåt kände jag frustration med karaktärerna men det visade en styrka av författaren eftersom de flesta av karaktärerna är barn och han lyckas skriva dem som realistiska barn. Berättelsen är dock väldigt mörk och våldsam. Främst för vuxna eller tonåringar och inte högläsning för mindre barn.
