The award-winning artist Brom takes us on a haunting look at the true world of Peter Pan, in his first full-length novel. From modern day New York to the dying land of Faerie, The Child Thief reveals the world of Peter Pan through the eyes of an insecure runaway who is seduced by Peter’s charm. But any dreams of a fairy wonderland are quickly replaced by the reality of life and death survival as Peter’s recruits are forced into a lethal battle in which the line between good and evil is blurred.

Story
One Christmas Eve in a small hollow in Boone County, West Virginia, struggling songwriter Jesse Walker witnesses a strange spectacle: seven devilish figures chasing a man in a red suit toward a sleigh and eight reindeer. When the reindeer leap skyward, taking the sleigh, devil men, and Santa into the clouds, screams follow. Moments later, a large sack plummets back to earth, a magical sack that thrusts the down-on-his-luck singer into the clutches of the terrifying Yule Lord, Krampus.

Patricia Campbell's life has never felt smaller. Her ambitious husband is too busy to give her a goodbye kiss in the morning, her kids have their own lives, her senile mother-in-law needs constant care, and she's always a step behind on thank-you notes and her endless list of chores. The one thing she has to look forward to is her book club, a close-knit group of Charleston women united by their love of true crime and paperback fiction. At these meetings they're as likely to talk about the Manson family as they are marriage, motherhood, and neighborhood gossip.

Publisher's Summary
Set in Colonial New England, Slewfoot is a tale of magic and mystery, of triumph and terror as only dark fantasist Brom can tell it.
Connecticut, 1666.
An ancient spirit awakens in a dark wood. The wildfolk call him Father, slayer, protector.
The colonists call him Slewfoot, demon, devil.
To Abitha, a recently widowed outcast, alone and vulnerable in her pious village, he is the only one she can turn to for help.
Together, they ignite a battle between pagan and Puritan - one that threatens to destroy the entire village, leaving nothing but ashes and bloodshed in their wake.
“If it is a devil you seek, then it is a devil you shall have!”
A Macmillan Audio production from Tor Nightfire
Critic Reviews
"Which is worse? The Devil of the forest or the terror of Puritan village rumors, accusations, and lies? At the crossroads of victimhood and vengeance, Abitha makes her choice - and blood follows." (Richard Kadrey, New York Times best-selling author of the Sandman Slim series)
"I loved this book. A roaring, bloody, beautiful work of pure imagination." (Andy Davidson, author of The Boatman's Daughter)
"Punctuated by moments of unanticipated levity as well as unmitigated terror, this clever and imaginative tale is not to be missed by fans of dark fantasy and historical horror." (Library Journal)

Captivating from start to finish
The first book by Brom I’ve read, and I was absolutely engrossed. Couldn’t stop listening, and I finished it in a couple days. The performance was marvellous and really added to the story. I’ve been looking for a good, non-generic witchy book for a while and I’ve finally found one! Just my cup of tea.

Enjoyable and engaging
This is my first time reading Brom after numerous recommendations, and I quite liked the way he told this story. The characters were all well fleshed out and engaging, and the plot was interesting and captivating. The narration was also positive, I liked that real effort was put into providing differences in voice for the characters.

This book is incredible.
I read the book whilst listening to the audiobook. Funnily enough I found reading it more creepy than listening to it. The atmosphere of this story is incredible and I felt creeped out, pissed off and vindicated as it went a long.

Doom, Gloom & Brilliantly Written
I didn’t know what to expect with this book, but as other reviews have stated it is an absolute masterpiece.
A enchanting, gloomy look into the past, powerful & powerless beings and the havoc of fear based beliefs & what lurks in the dark
I could go on & on and still wouldn’t be doing it justice! Do yourself a favour and read this book!

My favourite type of propaganda
A great tale of the true meaning of evil and our relationship with nature. I couldn’t help but be sucked into the narrative and have to admit maybe it is better with the devil you know.
