The Never

A Tale of Peter and the Fae

De: Don Jones

Narrado por: Kristina Fuller Yuen

When the ancient Under Hill home of the Fae is infected with the Rot, they're left with an unpleasant choice: Die in one last, great stand, or escape to the Human world. A world they once knew, but where they no longer belong. A modern world, where Cold Iron surrounds and poisons magical beings.

The Fae Queen reluctantly chooses exile, and she and her people abandon their magical castles, ancient glens, timeless forests, and centuries of power and tradition. They come into a bleak land bereft of magic and wonder, and begin to hunker down in the Human world's hidden places. The once-proud Fae resentfully begin a life of poverty, anonymity, and fear.

But one small group of Fae, accustomed to tinkering with the fabric of the universe, begin to develop an idea. An idea that will either give them a new world to live in, or wipe them completely from existence. An idea that could preserve them, or end them forever. An idea that requires the help of a young child's boundless imagination. An idea that will take them into the Never, a place forbidden and inimical to their kind.

It's a story that you think you know, but you've only ever heard a small part of it. A story that starts long before those three children flew in, and that has its epic conclusion long after they've gone.

Fantastic narration!

Kristina's narration pulled me through the story. Usually I struggle to listen to audio books, but Kristina kept me focused. Her character voices helped distinguish between the characters. She has a wonderful voice! I loved listening!

Great audio book

I really really enjoyed this audio book. Very different from the way Peter Pan is shown. It’s very different and very interesting. It held me the entire time.

Great Variation on The Fairies and Peter Pan

This is a different telling of Peter Pan but from the Fae or Fairy Realm's point of view. It was an interesting take and I loved how it tied in perspectives from other Peter Pan stories like Peter and the Star Catchers and even the Disney version. The narration was great and fit the story well. My only complaint is I felt the last hour of the book was a bit too long and drawn out and without giving ending away was a bit odd and a little sad. Overall I would recommend it to those who love stories around Peter Pan and the Fae, it was unique and quite fun.

Absolutley Brilliant!

An absolutley Brilliant tale of how Neverland came into being. Something I had never considered before and thank this author for making this such a brilliant story!
The narration was simply amazing! I will defintley put this narrator on my favorites list!

Outstanding

Knowing the history and stories of Peter Pan and the fairies around him due to having a child that adored all these books, this was such an amazing take on Neverland and how it came to be.

Even more astounding, is that I know the author from the Information Technology side of the world and would have never guessed to be something he would create.

The reader was outstanding, the writing was outstanding, making for an amazing listening experience!
