Nevermor (Nevermor #1‪)‬

Epic, mind-bending, and as sweet as it is vicious, Lani Lenore’s Nevermor is a dark fantasy based on the legend of Peter Pan, geared toward a more mature audience.

Reading Level, Age 16+ - In 1873, 15-year-old Wren longs to escape her life in a London orphanage. Prompted by a world she sees in a dream, Wren begins to believe in a world called Nevermor, an island at the edge of the universe, where all dreams go. She discovers the Rifter, a wild, volatile, and strangely handsome boy who guards the realm of dreams from terrifying nightmares. Wren begins to desire her own life there – to escape with her brothers without fearing that anyone will tear them apart.

Wren falls in love with Nevermor – and with the Rifter – and yet the more she learns of a conflict between the Rifter and a wicked, black-hearted man called the Scourge, the more she comes to realize that Nevermor is not a place for children.
