Ashley's Bookshelf: Hook's Little Mermaid Audio Release & Review

Official Release! Hear the story of Captain Hook from his own lips in this Audible version of "Hook's Little Mermaid."

“Hook wasn't always a villain. Discover what leads him on the path of destruction and how the love of a mermaid can change his heart.” ~ Hook's Little Mermaid

Captain James Hook was once a good man trying to make a somewhat honest living. He is a pirate, after all. However, after getting word that a boy named Peter Pan played a part in the death of a dear loved one, Hook makes it his sole purpose to hunt down and destroy the fiend.

On his journey for vengeance, the captain encounters many new comrades, including a young girl named Red and a fairy called Tinker Bell, and both push him to reconsider his desire for justice.

The accidental rescue of a mermaid leads him on a whirlwind adventure in Neverland. The journey is not a simple one, considering Pan, the Lost Boys, mermaids, and magic all come into play. After several misadventures, Hook must choose between the possibility of a new life with love and his much-desired retaliation against Pan.

Once everything is said and done, will the captain be able to overcome his need for revenge? Will he let compassion steer him toward love? Or will Captain Hook live up to his villainous reputation?

I enjoyed this new look at Captain Hook. He is a good guy, I mean he is a pirate but he isn't a BAD pirate. I enjoyed the book from start to finish. The narrator took some getting used to but did a pretty good job. It isn't a long book and I listened to it in one day. Not a book you are going to want to put down to do something and come back to but one you will want to read start to finish as quickly as possible. The author does a great job with her characters and keeping the story entertaining start to finish. I cannot wait to see what she comes up with next! Really good book 4/5.
