Synopsis

A collection of prequel novellas to the New York Times bestselling Dorothy Must Die seriesLong before Amy Gumm got swept away from a Kansas trailer park . . . Dorothy Gale received a package on the night of her 16th birthday: a pair of red high-heeled shoes. Dear Dorothy, the note read. I thought about silver to match the ones you lost, but in the end I decided that red was more your color. I think you know what to do with them.And with a knock of her heels, Dorothy returned to the magical land that made her a star—and Oz would never be the same again.This bind-up of three prequel novellas to the New York Times bestselling Dorothy Must Die series follows Dorothy Gale as she transforms from good girl to Wicked Witch. Kiss the land where troubles melt like lemon drops goodbye. Here there's danger around every corner, and magical shoes won't be able to save you.

I might be a little bias.. Because I just love this series.. :) There's no Place like home: Except from what happened to Oz, I keep asking myself while reading Dorothy Must Die.. *What happened to Dorothy really? *How did she become evil from being a nice and kind girl she was? *How did she manage to ret......more
