Publisher Description

Dark tales inspired by J. M. Barrie's classic stories of Neverland, Captain Hook, Tinkerbell, and of course Peter Pan, from some the masters of science-fiction, horror and fantasy including A. C. Wise, Claire North, Lavie Tidhar and more.

The award-winning Marie O’Regan & Paul Kane bring together the masters of fantasy, science-fiction and horror, to spin stories inspired by J. M. Barrie’s classic tale.

“Peter Pan retellings are some of my favourite to read, especially when such retellings are grossly dark and twisted, focusing more on the mystical elements. Some of these short stories managed to capture those vibes perfectly, whereas others just didn’t quite hit home and lacked intrigue. A few had me questioning if English was even my first language.
