    About this audiobook

    While Peter is away from the island, James and the other Lost Boys discover a mysterious cave. Shining Pearl and her sister, Little Scallop, warn the boys that the cave is a dangerous place, inhabited by a creature known as the Goat Taker - a beast so scary that even the Mollusk tribe fears it. But the boys can't resist trying to discover the cave's secrets. When the first of those secrets turns out to be a tantalizing hint of a famous haunted treasure, Captain Hook and his band of cutthroat pirates quickly join the hunt. Before long, the children are fleeing for their lives in a dark and deadly underground labyrinth…and their only hope of escape is to solve the mystery of the Cave of the Dark Wind.

      This is another great adventure in the "Never Land Book" series. The Lost Boys are determined to find a treasure in a mysterious and dangerous cave despite Shining Pearl's warning, and are followed by Captain Hook and his men.
    • 4/5
      Review by Blake: Really exciting with almost as much excitement as the Peter and the Starcatchers books. It tells of the Lost Boys and Little Scallop battling with Hook and his not so cut throat band of pirates. It was amazing and I can't wait to read more.
    • 4/5
      This adventurous story is a fairytale, like the classic Peter Pan story upon which it is based. In this story, the Lost Boys find themselves in a world of danger as they explore dangerous caves and run from the fierce Captain Hook and his band of pirates. The familiar characters in this story help make it engaging for readers. The new characters, Little Scallop and Shining Pearl, are also quite endearing, and teach readers about friendship through the friendship they develop with the Lost Boys. Like all good fairytales, this story has a strong sense of good vs. evil, and finishes with a happy ending that leaves readers satisfied.
    • 4/5
      Cute book in the Peter and the Star Catcher's series. It's supposedly written for younger children, but it has the same feel as the rest of the series to me (minus Peter) - it's just shorter. Highly recommend the audio read by Jim Dale.
    • 4/5
      This was a fun story. I really enjoyed this. It's a perfect pairing to the Starcatcher stories. The advantege of this story is definitely its length. The story could easily fill a single afternoon and be completed. Also, this would serve to prime the appetite of any potential yet reluctant Starcatcher reader. Pesky Lee is an excellent character and I'd love to have him be a part of future books in this series.
    • 4/5
      You’ve heard the saying, “when the cat’s away the mice will play”, well that is the way it is with the Lost Boys. When Peter is away they can’t seem to keep out of trouble. Bored James convinces Shining Pearl and her sister Little Scallop to take them to the Cave of the Dark Wind. There they find treasure, the secret goat taker, and pirates. All of these elements are brought together to solve the mystery of the cave while they once again escape from Captain Hook. This is a good addition to the Starcatcher series. This is geared for a younger reader but is still just as interesting to the older reader.
    • 4/5
      Have you ever wondered what was going on with the Mollusks. The pirates, and The Lost Boys while Peter was away having adventures in Peter and the Starcatchers, Peter and the Shadow Thieves and Peter and the Secrets of Rundoon? Well, this easy chapter book series (billed A Neverland Book) neatly fills that gap quite nicely. This story takes place in between Starcatchers and Shadow Thieves and features James (along with the other lost boys and of course, Shining Pearl and Little Scallop) on a madcap mini-adventure involving a mysterious “monster”, pirates, a cursed treasure, and the infamous Black Stache (and his gang). We begin the story with The Lost Boys learning of “The Taker” an evil monster living in the Cave of the Dark Wind and being somewhat interested in proving he too can have adventures, James becomes convinced that he can solve the mystery of The Taker and make the goats of Mollusk Island safe again. Along the way they encounter a lot more adventure and danger than they bargained for…will they discover the identity of The Taker? Is it really a monster? How will Black Stache and his gang of greedy pirates try to foil their plans and try to get the treasure for themselves? And more importantly, will they succeed? You’ll have to read to find out! Overall, this is a cute addition to the Neverland stories, though I would wager this is most appropriate for a slightly younger age range than the longer Pan novels Barry and Ridley have written thus far. Cave of the Dark Wind comes in at 166 pages and is a nice early chapter book with large spacing and type (and some nice black and white pen and ink illustrations) with an entertaining and easy to follow storyline that younger fans of Peter Pan and get into easily on their own (best for ages 4-8) and it would certainly make a great read aloud story for younger readers! I give it four stars, both of my kids loved it and we all hope that there will be many more of these to come…we absolutely loved reading more about the Mollusks, the Lost Boys, the stranded pirates and of course the mermaids!!!
