Neverworld: The Other Side of the Map Kindle Edition

Sixteen-year-old Samantha Beckett and her friend, Charley Neilson, are walking home from school when they find themselves being chased by two strange looking boys in a white van. Racing through backyards and under hedges, they finally shake their pursuers, only to run into Captain Bartholomew Jones, a man who claims he was sent to deliver Samantha to her mother, the woman who abandoned Samantha at birth.

Obsessed with the idea of finding her mother, Samantha agrees to go along with Jones, so long as Charley can accompany them. Trudging through the woods near her home, Jones leads them into a ring of mushrooms and thrusts a silver spoon into the ground. When the bright lights fade, Samantha finds herself in a land unlike any she has ever known, a harsh world of swordfights and sailing ships, a world without electricity or running water and filled with people who seem intent on killing her.

To find her mother and discover the reason for her abandonment, she and Charley will have to escape kidnappers, race typhoons and battle monsters. As they both soon learn, only the quick and the strong survive long on the other side of the map, in a place called Neverworld.

4.0 out of 5 stars typical orphan fantasy, but with pirates
Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2013

This was an interesting read, free on Kindle. Most of it takes place on a pirate ship, but it be begins with an orphan living in a foster home. Samantha doesn't fit in and has weird growth spurts. She, and her neighbor Charley, are chased by vampires then lured onto a pirate ship in another world, in Neverworld. A land of many races and people, including Samantha's Mom, who she dearly wants to meet. Much of the book lists like a ship on a slow day at sea. There was little focus to keep me reading through the middle. We learn about who Samantha and her Mom really are, and meet a new friend in an escape from a dungeon. But our ship's cast is a bit small and not as Pirate-y as I would have liked, despite rum jokes. I liked the sword fighting, learning and execution. The likelihood of survival in many of their battles was fantastically slim, but crafted nonetheless in the book.

i have not finished this book but i am tempted to give it 5 stars. To me five stars is Shakespeare so i will restrain myself. I may yet change my mind. It has all the charm of a fairy tale. the writing is GOOD! if you enjoy fantasy read it. No idea if it gets gruesome so far. I guess i will have to keep reading.
