These Deathless Shores Summary

These Deathless Shores by P.H. Low

Inspired by J.M. Barrie's beloved children story Peter Pan and focusing on family, freedom and choice, These Deathless Shores is an exciting genderbent origin story told from the perspective Captain Hook, perfect for fans of Jade City by Fonda Lee. Jordan was once a Lost Boy, convinced she would never grow up. Now, she's twenty-two and exiled to the real world, still suffering withdrawal from the magic Dust of her childhood-and the drug she's using to medicate that withdrawal is wreaking its final, fatal effects. With nothing left to lose, Jordan returns to the Island and its stories-of pirates and war and the cruelty of youth-intent on facing Peter one last time, on her own terms. But Peter isn't the only malevolent force moving against her. As Jordan confronts the nature of Dust, first love, and the violent legacy carved into the land itself, she realizes the Island may have plans of its own.

These Deathless Shores Reviews

"Gorgeous and unforgiving, THESE DEATHLESS SHORES is the Captain Hook origin story I never knew I needed. Come for the lush expansiveness of the world, stay for the incisive examination of gender, colonialism, and ambition. This book will sink its teeth into you and not let go."
Grace D. Li, New York Times bestselling author of Portrait of a Thief

"It takes a careful hand to balance both the brutality and the gentleness that is in THESE DEATHLESS SHORES but Low's impeccably sharp prose manages the perfect potent mix. Read this, and never see Peter Pan the same way again."
Em X. Liu, author of The Death I Gave Him

"THESE DEATHLESS SHORES is Peter Pan as never seen before: a raw look at the consequences of never growing up and being unable to sever the tethers to the past. Low's lush, rich prose stuns, all while crushing you in an emotional mangle. THESE DEATHLESS SHORES is feral, terrifying, sharper than a sudden bloom of pain, real as the knot in your gut."
Mia Tsai, author of Bitter Medicine

"THESE DEATHLESS SHORES is a fast-paced, action-packed, refreshing, unexpecting, unique take on a well known and loved fairy tale which explores the gritty, the dust, the dirt, the tainted, the uninnocent. Through broken, struggling, flawed yet courageous characters, Low illuminates gender rolesmothers and fathers, boys and girlswhat it means to have a family, to grow up, to remain a child, and calls into question what marks the end of childhood and what marks adulthood. The novel is filled with characters stuck in the warring stage between childhood and adulthood, preparing themselves for the transition, the journey, both mental and physical. THESE DEATHLESS SHORES is emotionally daunting and weighted and shows us the power of belief and imagination even in the bleakness of reality, pain, and death."
Ai Jiang, Nebula and Locus finalist and author of Linghun and I am AI

"These Deathless Shores accomplishes the perfect fantasy hat-trick: an electrifying plot, characterization as deep and expansive as the ocean, and captivating world-building,"
Maria Dong, author of Liar, Dreamer, Thief and Psychopomp

A poetic and deliriously stunning tale of loss, love, addiction and belonging, wrapped up in a Neverland youve never seen before. Dark and twisted and beautiful. I cant stop thinking about it.
Dan Hanks,author of Swashbucklers

"PH Low's soaring, lyrical prose pulls you down into a glittering, terrifying world full of propulsive action and complex characters that seem to leap from the pages."
Sarah Underwood, New York Times bestselling author of Lies We Sing to the Sea

"A thoughtful and heart-wrenching meditation on childhood, self-understanding, love, and illusions of choicePH Low's Island is a Neverland worth flying to."
Naseem Jamnia, Crawford-, Astounding-, Locus-, and World Fantasy-nominated author of The Bruising of Qilwa
