Reseña del libro "Roaring Boys (en Inglés)"
In the year 1590, the colonists of Roanoke island disappeared into the wilds of the New World and were never seen or heard from again.... Cristan doesn't want to be an adult. Indentured to pay for his passage to the New World, the young man has no surname, no money, and no property; yet when his servitude ends in a year's time, Cristan will be expected to settle down, to build a house...and to marry. Before his indenture is up, storm and sickness strike the colony, leaving little food for winter and cholera fevers raging through almost every home. Children begin to flee the homesteads for the wilds of the island, hoping to find safety from the fevers and the self-named, pitiless Governor Bosworth. As conditions deteriorate, a sudden revolt against the Governor's baleful grasp lands Cristan in a desperate fight for his life. With Bosworth's blood on his hands, he too runs away into the forest--to the camp of the wild children, where roaring boys and girls romp the dunes, where crowing Indians dance in the firelight, and where legends of mermaids and weeping birds are traded for a tinker's love. But the Governor's vengeance burns in the discontented winter, and Cristan finds that growing up won't let him off the hook so easily.... A tale about the lost children of Roanoke, Roaring Boys is the riveting new take on the classic story of Peter Pan.
