We Are Savages

Discover the story of 12 year old Tris and what she finds when she runs from the responsibility of her household and descends through a rain grate into the child run world of Nowhere. “You go to bed angry or sad enough you can wake up just about anywhere,” the Savages tell her.  Nowhere is a brick utopia hidden in the sewers; made up of sweets, sports, hammocks, and fireflies.  But even this haven, free of parents and protocol, is not everything it seems.  Haunted by dark specters known only as Phocydes, feared for their reputation of consuming children whole, Tris works both to hunt and to hide from these hooded shadows.  But something about them is familiar; something about them fires her curiosity more than her fear.  And Tris slowly begins to realize that, no matter where you go, fear and responsibility are not things you can escape. The only thing to do is face them.

Generation Pan

It’s a new millennium and Generation Pan finds a new group of lost kids — Lost Cubs, they’re called — living at Neverland.  Reese Austen is the newest arrival to Neverland, and she discovers that the Lost Cubs are running low on both hope and fairy dust.  It seems that fairies are extinct, and so fairy dust and the magic it holds is in critically short supply.

The dastardly Captain Patch also has some fairy dust, but he wants it all, including what little is left in the Lost Cubs’ possession.  He also holds dark secrets about his past and about Peter Pan.

Reese agrees to help Peter and the Cubs and learns a lesson along the way:  Lost Cubs aren’t exclusive to Neverland, they’re everywhere.  And in order to help reignite Neverland’s imagination, she must go back home to face harsh realities and help those she left behind.
