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.
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.
This is my second time reading this book and I loved it even more this time around. I will never ever get tired of this series! I absolutely love the dark twist on a childhood favorite fairytale of mine. I was completely spellbound from start to finish. Non-stop, thrilling action, amazing characters and a completely original concept; you really can't get much better! And I just love that what we consider the bad and good characters are all twisted around, it really makes this series special. I thoroughly enjoyed my reread of this book and I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the series again in preparation for the final book.
