About this listen

The second book in a riveting new series of dark fantasy fairy tale retellings from New York Times bestselling author Shannon Mayer, perfect for fans of Once Upon a Time and Wicked.

One fairytale down, one pirate-infested nightmare to go...

Molly, I, and my ever-loyal falcon, Fetch, barely survived evil wizard Relyk and escaped Alabaster, only to get cannon-bombed into our next story. Literally. Peter Pan and Tinkerbell swoop in with a rescue, whisking us off to Neverland. At first, it’s all glitter and good times on an island straight out of a daydream…until they mention a magical clock they’ve been hunting.

The same clock I need to fulfill my destiny.

So we do what any desperate main characters would do—we steal their boat and vanish into the night to get a jump on finding the clock. Too bad we sail straight into the hands of pirates.

And here’s the real kicker: Their captain is the man I’ve been dreaming of since childhood.

The twist? He’s not charming. He’s not kind. He’s not even remotely sane.

He’s the most dreaded pirate of all time.

And he thinks I’m a boy.

Now we’re tangled in secrets, trying to blend in, plotting yet another escape—until I find out the man of my dreams is after the same enchanted clock. The one he stole from Peter Pan a decade ago and lost to a massive, man-eating crocodile…along with his hand.

With reluctant alliances, sea monsters, and an unholy attraction to an even unholier pirate, this story might end with a bang or me walking the plank.©2025 Shannon Mayer (P)2025 Simon & Schuster Audio

what an amazing story. Shannon has kicked it up a notch. She once again has created a series that is exciting, suspenseful, slow burn . Harmony is a new leading lady and I am extremely excited to hear the rest of her story.

Outstanding

So interesting and fun, even through the tense and almost frightening spots. Shannon Mayer is so clever how she hints at what's to come but you have no idea how she's going to make it happen. You're left hanging on the edge of your seat waiting for the next book to be released.

Flawless twisting of tales!

Excellent second story in the series! Book 2 picks up where book 1 leaves off. New characters add a unique twists to a Peter Pan take. Plenty of action with some hold your breath scenes and yell out loud and laughing moments. I enjoyed the adventure and look forward to book 3. The narrators did a fantastic job bringing the story to life!

Very good

Retelling a classic fairytale with your own twist is no easy job to pull off well, but I’m enjoying Shannon’s retelling. Listening to the new take on classic characters intentions is fun, I’m looking forward to seeing what she does with our classic favourites in Oz!

Fun take on a twisted fairy tale

Book two in this amazing world picks up right where we left off. Harm is dropped into another fairytale, a twist on Peter Pan this time. It's non-stop action from beginning to end. You just can't stop reading. The story and characters make you feel like you are there with them.
Love this new world
