Peter Pan is back!
submitted by adipirro on July 8, 2011, 7:39pm
Peter Pan has been given new life in this action packed four book adventure! The names of the books:
1. Peter and the Starcatchers
2. Peter and the Shadow Thieves
3. Peter and the Secret of Rundoon
4. Peter and the Sword of Mercy
This second book is a great sequel to the first. A must read even for those who don't like reading, and don't miss the next ones either!
tiresome

I wanted to like this book, I really did. But overall, I found it tiresome.
As I said in the review for the first book, I felt like they could have cut at least 25% without any damage to the overall story. How many times do we need to read about Peter (and usually Tink and sometimes Molly) barely escaping yet another danger? Another reviewer mentioned the Harry Potter franchise when commenting on the length; I found other parallels: the name of Peter's school (St Norbert's School for Wayward Boys) and the one Harry allegedly attends (St Brutus's Center for incurably Criminal Teens) - but maybe they're both based on real school names? And Ombra has so many similarities to the dementors. The jumping back and forth between plotlines got monotonous. But what exasperated me the most was how Ombra is always GROANing - would it have hurt Barry or Pearson to pick up a thesaurus??
It's not a bad book, it's just a little too full of itself. Maybe I should have listened to it, like a friend recommended. Maybe Jim Dale's voice for Ombra would make all those *groans* bearable.
I gave up on the series after book 2.
