The Child Thief is a 2009 dark fantasy novel by the artist and novelist Gerald Brom. A dark retelling of the stories of Peter Pan and The Lost Boys, Brom takes many liberties with the originals by J M Barrie. Brom incorporates monsters and faeries well alongside a poverty-ridden horrific heap of a sad populace in New York.

Unfortunately this novel does stand out as Brom's introductory adult fantasy novel, but you can definitely see the glints of what he will achieve in later works. There's a bit too much grime on this particular novel to let it really shine though. That being said though, Brom is definitely a consistently fantastic artist, and I'm definitely going to be on the look out for an art book from him.
