The Never King (Vicious Lost Boys, #1) Review
Nikki St. Crowe wrote The
Never King (Vicious Lost Boys Book, #1). This Dark Romance centered around
Peter Pan and Wendy’s great-granddaughter, Winnie. All the Darlings women
before her were kidnapped by Peter Pan only to be returned later with mental
illnesses. Winnie feared she would be among them soon. Then her eighteenth
birthday arrived, and she was whisked away to Neverland. However, things were
not as she was told. There was no mention of hot fae princes and a threatening
man. Nope, only Peter Pan and the magic world lingered in those tales.
The Never King was a retelling of the Peter Pan story. Winnie discovered far
more than her mother told her. Secrets were discovered and stolen treasures
found. Winnie and the lost boys found something any of them knew they wanted.
This reverse harem was a two in one read. The traits of a dark romance and
reverse harem. What more could a reader want? The dynamic between Winnie and the
lost boys was engaging. The little mysteries stashed beneath the writing kept
me intrigued until the very end. It helped that the novel was short. Read it in
one go.
There were a few mishaps.
One was where Winnie mentioned bash's name before he even told it to her. I
thought it was a bit weird. There were a few instances when she would refer to
them as the lost boys. There was no way of her knowing their title when she was
new to the world. That had me puzzled also. I was not a big fan of Winnie. I didn't
get that deep connection as one would with a protagonist. Otherwise, it was a good read. I rated The Never King three out of five stars.
