About this listen

The stories were all wrong—Hook was never the villain.

For two centuries, all of the Darling women have disappeared on their 18th birthday. Sometimes they’re gone for only a day, some a week or a month. But they always return broken.

Now, on the afternoon of my 18th birthday, my mother is running around the house making sure all the windows are barred and the doors locked.

But it’s pointless.

Because when night falls, he comes for me. And this time, the Never King and the Lost Boys aren’t willing to let me go.

NOTE: The Never King is a reimagining of Peter and Wendy. Characters have been aged up for this darker, grittier version. If you like your enemies to lovers romance with hot, ruthless, morally gray love interests, you’ll enjoy The Never King. You can expect hate kissing, fighting, bickering, and "touch her and I’ll unalive you" vibes. Book one ends on a cliff.

Please check the author's website for CWs.

Pick this book if you want an enjoyable dark romance book and are OK with the trigger warnings. Then you'll enjoy it. Easy to listen to. Don't expect a well written story or background or depth to the characters. It's quite shallow on those things. However I enjoyed it a lot!

Easy listen, flat story

I’ve already read the book in ebook format and was listening to the audiobook because of the experience alone. The narrators were fantastic and having more than 1 or 2 really enhanced that experience.
Loved the story, pace and narrators. Great job!!

Wow, a narrated experience!!

I really appreciated the story, but I think the narration could be improved. A back-and-forth format with distinct male and female voices would enhance the experience. The male narrator attempting a female voice doesn't quite do justice to the characters.

Really enjoyed it!

So this was not what I was expecting at all however I am in love with this series! I have listened to the first two in about 2 days and I'm just starting the third now and I can't stop thinking about it. The narration is so good and I love the development of the characters. It definitely has trigger warnings for a reason though so please be aware of this before starting 🙂
