Last year I saw The Wendy by Erin Michelle Sky & Steven Brown pop up on my Twitter feed and regardless of how good the synopsis sounded (really good by the way) I knew I wanted the book for the cover. It’s stunning and reminded me more of a movie poster. The art style is gorgeous and so I bought it. Then I hit a reading slump and didn’t touch it. Now, fast forward a few weeks and The Wendy was what got me out of that slump, and I was in love. It was such a unique take on the Peter Pan story we all know, but it was reminiscent enough that it felt like Peter Pan. It was an instant new favorite, as I am a sucker for anything Peter Pan inspired.
But this post isn’t about The Wendy, but about its sequel, The Navigator and oh my gosh, the cover for this book is gorgeous. When the authors reached out and asked if I wanted to be a part of the cover release, I couldn’t say no! And then the cover popped into my inbox I couldn’t stop staring. I promise – it’s a good one. A really good one.
Before I get to the cover reveal – here are what some people had to say about The Wendy:
Fans of Brigid Kemmerer’s A Curse So Dark and Lonely, Gena Showalter’s The Evil Queen, and Leigh Bardugo’s Shadow and Bone will love the rip-rollicking adventure, fantasy, and historical elements of the Tales of the Wendy series by Steven Brown and Erin Michelle Sky, Dragon Authors.

Are you ready for the cover reveal of The Navigator?
NOT EVERY ADVENTURE GOES AS PLANNED …
In this eagerly awaited second volume of the acclaimed Tales of the Wendy series, Wendy’s troubles are far from over. Hook wants her in irons, the crew wants to throw her overboard, and Pan’s magical compass is the only thing standing in their way. But Pan himself is nowhere to be found.
When a new everlost captain appears on the horizon, it will take everything Wendy has to survive.
And a tiny red dragon will set events in motion that could save or doom them all.
I’m absolutely in love with this cover and the synopsis has me desperately wanting this book so I can continue with Wendy’s story. I cannot wait to have a copy of this in my hand and I know I’ll be dropping everything to read it when it does come out. Make sure you check out The Wendy – you won’t regret it!
