The Child Thief is a 2009 novel by the artist and writer known as Brom.Fourteen-year-old Nick is in trouble. He's on the run from drug dealers with a pack full of stolen meth, and those drug dealers have caught up. He's pretty sure he's going to die. Until Peter shows up. Peter saves his life and promises to take him away to a magical land full of adventure. And Nick follows, through a haunted mist to a strange, magical, dying land full of Devil children, monsters, magic and danger. There he learns he's not been saved so much as recruited, to fight with Peter and his pack of wild, lost children against the Flesh Eaters who are destroying the land of Avalon. As he and the other New Blood find their place in the group, discovering more of the nature of Avalon and of the threat against it, Peter's past is revealed to the reader.It's basically a grimmer take on the story of Peter Pan, although there's no mention of any of the other characters in the original book by James Barrie. | |

Just Eat Gilligan: Nick realizes pretty early on that everyone wants the same thing, for the Flesh-Eaters to leave Avalon.This would be easy and take no more lives if the Lady would just lift the Mist, but everyone is horrified that he could even think such a thing. | |

Manipulative Bastard: Peter. He deliberately targets desperate, lonely, abused children and makes them Child Soldiers who are completely loyal to him because Deviltree is theirs in a way nothing was back home. The Devils practically worship him instead of realizing that they're just cannon fodder in a war that has nothing to do with them. | |

Bittersweet Ending: A toss-up between this and Downer Ending: Avalon and the Lady are saved... but almost every single other named character is dead. However, Peter has rejected his identity as the Lady's successor, and decides to forge his own destiny as the king of the Wild. Peter then decides to fulfill his promise to Nick, and heads to his house to protect his mother from the drug dealers. | |

Really 700 Years Old: All of the original inhabitants of Avalon, and Peter. Some of the Devils, namely Sekeu, might also fit this trope. Most of the other Devils are Older Than They Look. The Flesh-Eaters also count as this, having been trapped on Avalon since the time of the Pilgrims and the Mayflower. | |

Year Outside, Hour Inside | |
| The Child Thief / int_d75a1703 | comment |
Year Outside, Hour Inside: Time seems to work this way on Avalon, with no one knowing exactly knows exactly how much time is passing on Avalon, but in the real world the war has been going on for over three-hundred years. | |

Team Mom | |
| The Child Thief / int_fb9e25e9 | comment |
Team Mom: Sekeu, who is basically Peter's right hand. She isn't particularly nurturing, but she is fair and cares for the survival of Deviltree. The Devils respect her completely, look to her for direction, and know that any praise from her is high praise indeed. And something is very much lost when she dies. | |

Dark and Troubled Past | |
| The Child Thief / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Dark and Troubled Past: Peter, and all the Devils... which is why they became Devils in the first place, as Peter purposefully searches out the most poorly treated and lonely children for his army. | |
