Struggling with isolation on Everland, the protagonist faces a resurgence of old threats as the Crocodile and Captain Hook return, complicating their already precarious existence. With a name that symbolizes a past identity resurfacing, the situation becomes even more dangerous, not just for them but for those who dare to seek the protagonist out. The tension between survival and the haunting echoes of their former life drives the narrative, as alliances are tested and old enemies loom large.
The Dark One has finally accepted me...just in time for everything to change. Because Vane's brother, The Crocodile, has just arrived on Neverland soil and he's not alone. He's brought with him members of the royal Darkland family and they want Vane's Death Shadow back at any cost. Of course, Peter Pan, Vane, Kas and Bash, they're all familiar with war. But war isn't easy when love is on the line. I know those vicious Lost Boys would do anything to protect me. But what if I'm not the one that needs saving? As power shifts on the island and shadows are claimed, all five of us have to let go of who we were, if we have any chance of becoming who we are destined to be.

Když do jejího světa vstoupil on – temný král neznámé říše –, její svět se rozpadl na kousky. Unesl ji na místo, kde noc nikdy nekončí a všechno je prostoupené magií. Ocitla se v moci bytosti, ke které si nikdy neměla dovolit něco cítit. On je krutý, záhadný a vražedně přitažlivý. Winnie je smrtelná dívka s cennými vzpomínkami a klíčem k mnohem větší hře.
Až s Panem a Ztracenými chlapci v Zemi Nezemi konečně poznala, co to znamená žít. Jenže ani tady nejsou dny naplněné jen lenošením na pláži a žhavými hrátkami. V lesích číhá něco temného – a královna fae s Kapitánem Hookem jsou připraveni bojovat o moc. A dokud nedostanou, co chtějí, nic je nezastaví.
Winnie je potomkem rodiny, která Panovi vzala něco důležitého. Něco, bez čeho nepřežije ani on, ani jeho Země Nezemě. Blíží se válka. Získá král zpět svůj stín, sílu a trůn? A pokud ano – je pro Winnie v tomhle obskurním světě vůbec místo? Možná je totiž v ohrožení nejen Země Nezemě, ale i její temné, zvrácené srdce.
Všechny příběhy se mýlily – Hook nikdy nebyl padouch.
Po dvě století mizely všechny Miláčkovy ženy v den svých osmnáctých narozenin bůhví kam. Někdy byly pryč jen jediný den, jindy týden nebo měsíc. Ale vždy se vrátily zlomené a nepříčetné.
Teď, v den mých osmnáctin, pobíhá moje matka po domě a ujišťuje se, že jsou všechna okna zavřená a dveře zamčené.
Její snaha však vyjde vniveč.
Protože když padne noc, přijde si pro mě. Král Nezemě a Ztracení chlapci ode mě něco potřebují a nic mě před nimi nezachrání.
Král Nezemě je temnější a odvážnější verzí příběhu Petra Pana a Wendy. Postavy jsou starší a mají drsnější, morálně nejednoznačný charakter.
Pokud milujete romantiku mezi nepřáteli plnou nenávistných polibků, hádek, jiskřivého hašteření a energie typu „dotkni se mě a špatně to s tebou skončí“, pak si tuhle knihu i celou sérii zamilujete.
