What if Wendy first traveled to Neverland ... with Captain Hook?
Sixteen-year-old Wendy Darling's life is not what she imagined it would be. The doldrums of an empty house after her brothers have gone to school, the dull parties where everyone thinks she talks too much, and the fact that her parents have decided to send her away to Ireland as a governess - it all makes her wish things could be different.
Wendy's only real escape is in writing down tales of Never Land. After nearly meeting her hero, Peter Pan, four years earlier, she still holds on to the childhood hope that his magical home truly exists. She also holds on to his shadow.
So when an opportunity to travel to Never Land via pirate ship presents itself, Wendy makes a deal with the devil. But Never Land isn't quite the place she imagined it would be. Unexpected dangers and strange foes pop up at every turn, and a little pixie named Tinker Bell seems less than willing to help.
But when Captain Hook reveals some rather permanent and evil plans for Never Land, it's up to the two of them to save Peter Pan - and his world.
The series
In a world where the familiar becomes unfamiliar, the Twisted Tales series by Farrah Rochon takes beloved stories and turns them on their heads. Each book within the series imagines what might happen if key moments in iconic tales took a different path, leading to new destinies for its characters. Rather than simply retelling a classic, these stories ask, What if?—offering readers a glimpse into alternate worlds where choice and consequence create ripples that echo through time.
Read full series description
In Almost There, the reimagining of The Princess and the Frog, Tiana’s life takes an unexpected turn when she strikes a dangerous deal with the villainous Dr. Facilier. In a world where her dreams come true but at a cost, she must navigate the strange, dark underbelly of New Orleans, where everything is both familiar and eerily different. The stakes are high, and Tiana's journey becomes more than just about love—it's about survival in a world that was never meant to be.
Then, in Fate Be Changed, the reworking of Brave takes readers deep into a world where Merida’s fate is altered when she consumes the witch’s spell instead of her mother, Queen Elinor. What happens when Merida's decisions ripple backward in time? In this thrilling reimagining, Merida must bridge the divide between rival clans and forge a path where family bonds are tested and history itself is rewritten.
What makes Twisted Tales stand out is the perfect blend of rich character development, intense world-building, and the suspense of uncharted territory. Rochon’s mastery of these reimagined worlds feels effortless, pulling readers into the unknown with characters they already love but placing them in circumstances that force them to grow, adapt, and confront impossible choices.
With every story, Twisted Tales reminds readers that every moment is a crossroads, and with one different choice, the world could change forever. If you love the idea of alternate realities and the challenge of questioning fate itself, these books will keep you turning pages, wondering just how far the rabbit hole goes.
