About The Child Thief
Brom reimagines Peter Pan as a macabre contemporary fantasy in which Peter recruits abandoned children, runaways, and the hopeless into his Devils in Avalon. He promises a place where they never have to grow up, but the monsters are real and the children must fight to survive a brutal war.
