Death Comes at Christmas

"Marie O'Regan and Paul Kane have mustered an enviable crew of lost boys and girls to explore the shadowy side of Neverland, creating a new set of fables for a lost generation. Like a fistful of fairy dust, these stories transform Peter Pan into something thrillingly contemporary - take the second star to the right and read on 'til morning." - British Fantasy Award winner Dan Coxon "O'Regan and Kane have pulled the anthology together as only editors with consummate skill and experience can, and in terms of style and delivery, there really is something for everyone. It will be good to see The Other Side of Never take flight in the real world. There is certainly enough here to get anyone 'hooked'."-The British Fantasy Society "Prepare for family secrets, crime scenes and many other tales to ponder what never growing up and Never Land really mean.
