Yellow Brick War: 3 (Dorothy Must Die, 3)

by Danielle Paige (Author), Danielle Paige (Author)

Synopsis

In this action-packed third book in the New York Times bestselling Dorothy Must Die series, new girl from Kansas Amy Gumm is caught between her home-and Oz. Perfect for fans of Marissa Meyer's Lunar Chronicles and Gregory Maguire's Wicked, Danielle Paige delivers a dark, high-octane reimagining of L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.

My name is Amy Gumm. Tornadoes must have a thing about girls from Kansas, because-just like Dorothy-I got swept away on one too. I landed in Oz, where Good is Wicked, Wicked is Good, and the Wicked Witches clued me in to my true calling: Assassin.

The only way to stop Dorothy from destroying Oz-and Kansas-is to kill her. But I failed. Others died for my mistakes. Because of me, the portal between the worlds has been opened. And if I don't find a way to close it?

Dorothy will make sure I never go home again.

Now it's up to me to: join the Witches, fight for Oz, save Kansas, and stop Dorothy once and for all.

Media Reviews
Praise for the DOROTHY MUST DIE series: Readers of Baum's books will take special delight in seeing new twists on the old characters, and they will greet the surprise climactic turnabout with the smugness of insiders. -- Kirkus Reviews
Dorothy Must Die is kind of the ultimate in girl-powered literature. Here, women and girls are allowed to be anything. -- Nerdist.com
Gone are the days of rainbows, Lollipop Guilds and pretty much anything to sing about in a major key. 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
Paige doesn't hold back in this fast-paced action novel. Give this cinematic upper-YA novel to fans of A. G. Howard's Splintered, Frank Beddor's Looking Glass Wars, and TV shows such as Once Upon a Time and Grimm. -- School Library Journal
Paige delivers a solid, intense, and strange narrative that draws deeply on its source material. -- Publishers Weekly
Paige is creating a rather brilliantly twisted version of the familiar world of Oz. -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
Paige has embellished upon the original Wizard of Oz story to create a completely new, even more bizarre Oz and cast of characters. Her world building is fascinating. -- Booklist
For anyone who likes a good story turned on its head, Dorothy Must Die is a must-read. -- Huffington Post
The Wizard of Oz as you've never seen it. -- Teen Vogue
Paige's world building is intriguing and effectively augments the original world created by L. Frank Baum. -- ALA Booklist
