Commentary During Books Capt. Hook: The Adventures of a Notorious Youth
With his long black curls, a shadowy family tree, and an affinity for pet spiders, James Matthew bears little resemblance to his starched-collar, blue-blooded peers at Eton. Dubbed King Jas., he stops at nothing to become the most notorious underclassman in the prestigious school's history. For James, sword fighting, falling in love with an Ottoman Sultana, and challenging the Queen of England are all in a day's skullduggery. But when he sets sail on a ship with a mysterious mission, King Jas.' dream of discovering a magical island quickly turns into an unimaginable nightmare. Screenwriter J. V. Hart traces the evolution of J. M. Barrie's classic villain from an eccentric outcast to the scourge of Neverland.Rating Containing Books Capt. Hook: The Adventures of a Notorious Youth

I've never given much thought to Captain Hook, I mean, he dies in Hook and in Peter Pan it's implied that he dies at the crocodile's hand. But this book gave me a whole-new perspective on his life. James Matthew Bastard, OSB, or King Jas, or Captain Hook, whatever you choose to call him, is AWESOME. He bleeds yellow, his locks are long and curly, and his "forget-me-not" eyes glow a bit red when he gets mad. And, he commands with a force that is one to be reckoned with. I only wish I could beWhen I first saw this book in the library, I said to myself: "I just got to read this!" I have heard about Captain Hook in Peter Pan Stories and learned how bad he is but after reading this book, I started liking him. I guess he is my favorite villain now! Wow~! The pictures were also nicely drawn. The story?! It's incredible! You just have to know the story of Captain Hook!
I read this book because my class took a trip to a local bookstore to meet JV Hart. I was immideatly drawn to his way of speaking, his ideas, and what he was saying to us. He was an extremely interesting guy. He signed my book for me and even talked to me about pursuing a career in writing myself.This book was beautiful when I read it the first time. I loved how you got to see a different side of James. Instead of the greedy man that you more commonly see in Peter Pan and the like, I got to know
A fantastic work in the Peter Pan mythology. A marvelous portrayal of the young Hook.

I love this book!!!! SO MUCH! The part i like best about it is that they make James Hook a very dark, cruel and sinical person, but it's not gruesom. yes, he does some things that are a little creepy, but they are soooo thrilling and are writin beautifully! so you get this adrenaline rush, but its not scary at all! its a thriller book! I also like the softer side they show of Hook. like how he has a great friendship with Roger. he is nice to his friend, and they have many a great aventure! Then
