The New York Times bestselling first book in a dark series that reimagines the Oz saga, from debut author Danielle Paige. Start at the beginning and discover your new series to binge!

My name is Amy Gumm—and I'm the other girl from Kansas. I've been recruited by the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked. I've been trained to fight. And I have a mission: Remove the Tin Woodman's heart. Steal the Scarecrow's brain. Take the Lion's courage. And—Dorothy must die.

I didn't ask for any of this. I didn't ask to be some kind of hero. But when your whole life gets swept up by a tornado—taking you with it—you have no choice but to go along, you know?

Sure, I've read the books. I've seen the movies. I know the song about the rainbow and the happy little blue birds. But I never expected Oz to look like this. To be a place where Good Witches can't be trusted, Wicked Witches may just be the good guys, and winged monkeys can be executed for acts of rebellion. There's still a road of yellow brick—but even that's crumbling.

What happened? Dorothy. They say she found a way to come back to Oz. They say she seized power and the power went to her head. And now no one is safe.

A Dark Fairy Tale Retelling: Forget the happy little blue birds. In this reimagining of the classic Oz story, the yellow brick road is crumbling, winged monkeys are rebels, and a magical land is a nightmare ruled by a tyrant.
The Other Girl From Kansas: Sarcastic, pink-haired Amy Gumm isn’t your average hero. Recruited by the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked, she’s been trained for one purpose.
Good is the New Wicked: In a corrupted Oz where Good Witches can’t be trusted and the Wicked may be the only hope, Amy must decide who her real enemies are.
An Impossible Mission: Her orders are clear: Remove the Tin Woodman’s heart. Steal the Scarecrow’s brain. Take the Lion’s courage. And—Dorothy must die.
