If you’re looking for a unique Peter Pan retelling with a modern, sci-fi twist, found family, and an upper YA romance, look no further!! The PAN Trilogy by Jenny Hickman is EXACTLY what you’ve been looking for. With an urban yet magical feel, lost boys who will make you stress and swoon⁣ all at once⁣, and a mysterious sci-fi twist that will keep you hooked (no pun intended 😅), this is 100% the next fantasy series to binge! And even better, all of the books are out and available, so those pesky cliffhangers can just fly, fly away. Keep reading for a look deeper at the series and why you’ll love it if you’re a fan of fairy tale retellings and Peter Pan!

You get the elements of a high fantasy world with a main plotline that focuses heavily on a romantic relationship with a fantastical being and probably lots of smutty bits!

Here they are!
