Find the second star from the right, and fly straight on 'til morning, all the way to Neverland, a children's paradise with no rules, no adults, only endless adventure and enchanted forests - all led by the charismatic boy who will never grow old.

But Wendy Darling grew up. She has a husband and a young daughter called Jane, a life in London. But on night, after all these years, Peter Pan returns. Wendy finds him outside her daughter's window, looking to claim a new mother for his Lost Boys. But instead of Wendy, he takes Jane.

Now a grown woman, a mother, a patient and a survivor, Wendy must follow Peter back to Neverland to rescue her daughter and finally face the darkness at the heart of the island...

Review of 'Wendy, Darling' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

This is indeed a dark retelling of the Pete Pan story, and it is an excellent one. Very well written; we follow the story from the POV of Wendy now, Wendy then, and Wendy's daughter Jane, and each voice is distinctive. It is hard to put down, and gives you a good deal to think about after.
