We should never have come here.

Neverland is not as anyone thought. Mysterious as it is treacherous, weeks have passed with little progress in locating Jamie Teach. But The Dragon is the least of my worries; the bigger problem is Cedric losing his mind more each day. Obsessed with vengeance above all else, he cares little for what it may cost… even if it’s me.

I’m left with no choice.

Reach Afterport, board a ship, and leave this life—leave Cedric—behind. It should have been simple, but this island is anything but. Sirens speak in riddles, haunting my days and nightmares alike, and the only being I can trust is a boy no older than ten. I’m caught between worlds, between life and death itself, between loyalty… and the truest love I''ll ever know.

Can I really allow the man I love to duel with The Dragon alone?

A Duel with the Dragon is a short, fast-paced prequel to the Curses of Never Series: dark fantasy retellings inspired by Peter Pan and The Little Mermaid. Perfect for fans of Pirates of the Caribbean, these LGBTQ+ friendly adult reimaginings are filled to the brim with monsters, magic, and pirates. It is best read after book three, A Forest of Blackened Trees, and before book four, A River of Tormented Souls.
