![]() ![]() As Gwen sets out to save her sister, she meets Pete, the leader of a gang of Lost Boys and sharpshooter Bella, who have all been living in a city hidden underground. When the marauders catch Joanna while Gwen is gathering supplies, they set off a series of events that promise to change everything in Everland. Gwen, Joanna and Mikey Darling scavenge what they can to survive, but it’s getting harder to evade Hook’s ruthless Marauders. He thinks one the surviving children is the key, which means he’s got to catch them for testing and experimentation. The virus unleashed by the blitz has most likely spread beyond England’s borders, but Hook can’t leave the newly dubbed Everland without a cure. The German army led by Captain Hanz Otto Oswald Kretschmer (aka Hook) has destroyed the city in a blitz of bombs that ultimately released a deadly disease, wiping out most of the population. The tale of “Peter Pan” gets a new hero and a new setting in “Everland.” ![]() ![]() “EVERLAND,” by Wendy Spinale, Scholastic Press, May 10, 2016, Hardcover, $17.99 (young adult) ![]()
