The Child Thief

De: Brom

Narrado por: Kirby Heyborne

In the vein of Gregory Maguire’s bestselling works, the award-winning artist Brom takes us on a haunting look at the true world of Peter Pan, in his first full-length novel. From modern day New York to the dying land of Faerie, The Child Thief reveals the world of Peter Pan through the eyes of an insecure runaway who is seduced by Peter’s charm. But any dreams of a fairy wonderland are quickly replaced by the reality of life and death survival as Peter’s recruits are forced into a lethal battle in which the line between good and evil is blurred.

a beautiful entry but far from his best

most of Broms books seem to follow the same plot structure but that in no way means they are dull and boring. the child thief, krampus, and old gods do a great job of mixing together myths and legends into a new story while giving you points of reference. it gives you a way to get inside and fully understand the world that these myths embody. I'm not a smart man and ive got no gift for words but I'm trying....a little.
The child thief amd krampus were great books all around but old God's was by far my fav. try them out and I'm sure you will see what I was trying to vocalize.... especially about the plots

Excellent

I lost myself reading this book back in 2010 and was glad to find it in audio book form. It's an amazing book and well worth a credit.
At first I wasn't sure about the narrator the sample was a poorly chosen exert to say the least but once you get into the book itself and away from the prologue he really shines.

Fantastic

I loved this from start to finish. Characters are fascinating, plot is well thought out, settings are described beautifully and the entire book is written with style. I really enjoyed the research presented at the end of the book as well. Brom is brilliant and Kirby is one of the most impressive performers I’ve experienced on audible.

what a great performance!

The theatrical presentation is great! Heyborne sucks you in with a wide spectrum of voices for many characters. The story is very good and has a broad array of characters and their shortcomings.

Great Twist on Peter Pan.

It was well written, very real not holding back any reality from situations and the realistic characters that frustrate you and keep you interested and absorbed into the storyline and characters.
