âA brilliant, perceptive, and deeply moving fable.â
âBoston Sunday Globe
Publishers Weekly calls Gregory Maguireâs Lost âa deftly written, compulsively readable modern-day ghost story.â Brilliantly weaving together the literary threads of J.M. Barrieâs Peter Pan, Charles Dickensâs A Christmas Carol, and the Jack the Ripper stories, the bestselling author of The Wicked Years canon creates a captivating fairy tale for the modern world. With Lost, Maguireâwho re-imagined a darker, more dangerous Oz, and inspired the creation of the Tony Award-winning Broadway blockbuster Wickedâdelivers a haunting tale of shadows and phantoms and things going bump in the night, confirming his reputation as âone of contemporary fictionâs most assured myth-makersâ (Kirkus Reviews).
