About this deal

She threw herself forward, forcing herself to go faster, to keep up, not to lose him in the woods. “ALEX!” she tried to call out to him, but her lungs burned. It was disorienting. Everything was off-kilter. Wendy was lost. Was she running to Alex, or was she being chased?

When children start to go missing in the local woods, a teen girl must face her fears and a past she can’t remember to rescue them… It was hard to see a path through the brambles and gnarled roots. Wendy kept tripping, her forward momentum the only thing keeping her upright. The tree branches reached out at her like thorny arms, trying to pull her into a painful embrace. They slapped her cheeks, tangled in her hair, and bit her legs, but Wendy urged herself forward. Each footfall on the uneven ground jarred, ankle to knee, ankle to knee. She had to get to Alex. She wouldn’t let him be taken by the woods or whatever that thing was. When children start to go missing in the local woods, a teen girl must face her fears and a past she can't remember to rescue them in this atmospheric YA novel, Lost in the Never Woods from the author of Cemetery Boys.

Dirt and the coppery taste of blood were on her tongue. With effort, she pushed herself up onto her knees. Her body protested, but she couldn’t stop. She had to get up, she had to keep running, she had to find Alex.

The dark trees loomed over Alex’s tiny form. She couldn’t see into them, but the feeling of something waiting there in the dark made her skin crawl. Wendy ran as fast as she could after Alex, straining her ears to guide her to his voice. She couldn’t see him, but she could hear his cries up ahead. Wendy lunged forward to grab him, hips slamming into the short fence, but before she could reach, Alex’s mouth opened wide. His eyes found hers. For a moment, she could clearly see his face—terrified and chalky, his fingers digging into the dirt—before the woods swallowed him whole.We’re excited to share an excerpt from Lost in the Never Woods, an atmospheric reimagining of Peter Pan from author Aiden Thomas—publishing March 23rd with Swoon Reads.

A choked cry forced its way into her throat. Wendy threw herself forward with even greater abandon.
