Product Description

In this riveting andadventure-packed follow-up to Peter and the Starcatchers, we discover Peter leaving the relative safety of MolluskIsland-along with his trusted companion Tinker Bell-for the cold, damp streetsof London. On a difficult journey across the sea, he and Tink discover the darkand deadly, slithering part-man/part-creature Lord Ombra. It seems that thedreaded Ombra has a variety of mysterious powers including the ability to makeshadows disappear. When Peter reaches London, he sets out to find theindomitable Molly. Together they must combat Ombra's terrible forces to bothprotect the Starcatchers and the treasured starstuff and most importantly torescue Molly's mother from the clutches of evil. Dave Barry and Ridley Pearsonhave done it again-written a compulsively readable, impossible-to-put-down talethat will delight readers of all ages.

5 out of 5 starsAs Good As The First, 2008-08-26
Another absolutely charming and action packed installment of the Peter series. As an adult, much of the fun I derive from these books are the clever way the characters you're familiar with come into being, as well as in this book the cameo appearance by a certain author who will figure heavily in Peter's future. Picking up almost where the last book left off, Peter must race to London to warn Molly of an evil figure named Lord Ombra who snatchers people's shadows rendering them near lifeless automatons, in an effort to reclaim the starstuff from Molly's father. Looking forward to the next.

I bought this book for my son who is going into 6th grade for summer reading. It's not easy to get him to read in the summer. He loved it and couldn't put it down. Now he's reading the sequel.

5 out of 5 starsEntire Series is EXCELLENT!, 2008-05-15
If you like the notion of Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, etc. this series is really excellent. I don't use the word WONDERFUL much, but they're a great read. They really do carry on the story of Peter and his friends in a believable and fun way. Really AWESOME and you won't be disappointed. The entire series is highly recommended - all three books so far.

4 out of 5 starsPretty good Peter, 2008-01-04
Peter (of Neverland fame) hitches a ride on a ship filled with Very Bad Men and goes back to London to warn his friend Molly of the danger that races towards her and her family. The Starchasers are in grave trouble this time. This is a great, fun book. Inventive, funny, fast-paced. The characters are fleshed-out and believable. The baddies are very bad.
