5.0 out of 5 stars A great read - funny as well as very clever, 15 Dec 2001
By A Customer
The idea to replay Peter Pan with modern dilemmas like infertility is brilliantly executed. The book's full of interesting ideas and subplots which make it a pacey read throughout, all heading to an ending that's really gripping. The dialogue is very natural and funny - the bit about what kind of music they play in heaven really made me laugh, but there are loads of great one-liners too - and it was so refreshing to have strong female characters dominating the action.

5.0 out of 5 stars Does exactly what it says on the tin, 9 Nov 2001
By RT RYAN "Rob R" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
...Imagine Peter Pan re-worked by Peckinpah circa The Getaway - only with kids taking the place of money, and the ruthless naasty ones turn out to be the mothers. Good stuff.
