Give this cinematic upper-YA novel to fans of A. For those willing to go on a quest with a heroine more attuned to our times than the Dust Bowl era, there's no place like it." - USA Today "Debut author Paige doesn't hold back in this fast-paced action novel. This really is a woman's world." - "Gone are the days of rainbows, Lollipop Guilds and pretty much anything to sing about in a major key. Here, women and girls are allowed to be anything.

Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Inc ISBN: 9780062280688 Number of pages: 480 Weight: 363 g Dimensions: 203 x 135 x 27 mm Edition: 9th edition MEDIA REVIEWS And I have a mission: Remove the Tin Woodman's heart. I've been recruited by the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked.
My name is Amy Gumm-and I'm the other girl from Kansas. They say she seized power and the power went to her head. They say she found a way to come back to Oz. There's still a road of yellow brick-but even that's crumbling. 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. But I never expected Oz to look like this. I know the song about the rainbow and the happy little blue birds.
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.
The New York Times bestselling first book in a dark new series that reimagines the Oz saga, from debut author Danielle Paige.
