About this audiobook

In this dark, action-packed fourth book in the New York Times bestselling Dorothy Must Die series, Amy Gumm travels from Oz to the twisted land of Ev, where she fights to free Oz from evil once and for all.

My name is Amy Gumm. You might remember me as the other girl from Kansas. When a tornado swept me away to the magical land of Oz, I was given a mission: Dorothy must die. That’s right, everyone’s favorite Wicked-Witch-slayer had let the magic of Oz corrupt her. She turned evil. So I killed her.

But just when we thought it was safe to start rebuilding the damaged land of Oz, we were betrayed. Now I’m following the Road of Yellow Brick as it helps me escape toward the mysterious land of Ev, where the Nome King rules a bleak and angry world. And what I’m about to find is shocking: My original mission may not have been successful.

I thought my job was over, but it’s only just beginning. And it’s up to me to foil Dorothy’s plans for revenge—and finally save the land I’ve come to love.

    Overall, Good Ending to a Great series

    Pros - I've said this before, I love how Danielle continues to pull different characters from the original works, then adds a unique personality for each. Action packed scenes and plenty of conflicting interests.

    Cons - I didn't like the perspective flip. It chipped away at an otherwise, great story.

    Fue un lindo final, disfruté mucho el retellimg y como todo se desarrolló. Amo que todo se “resolviera”.

    Creo que en general la saga habla muy bonito de la empatía y lo fácil que es volverte malvad@ cuando no miras con amor y paciencia tu interior.

    The narrator brings this book to life. I’ll definitely read/listen to this series again!

    Though I felt that the entire series was a great idea and the first book really set a great tone of a twisted take on the original story. The other three books started a downward spiral of what was a dark and horrifying great tale , into a typical YA romance filled story. Not excited about how it finished !!

    It starts off alright (compared to the others in the series, not books in general) but the final third does not do justice to the story. The author spends more time in character-introspection than in describing the scenes or battles. The final battle is relatively quick and unexciting in comparison with battles of earlier books. And of course it ends exactly as one would expect. Boring happily ever after.

    At first, I was very satisfied by the ending of this. There are quite a few YA series out there that try to preserve the innocence of the heroine by taking self-determination out of their hands and disallowing them to confront/kill the big bad. This allowed Amy to retain her (relative) innocence WITHOUT taking Dorothy's defeat away from her. Awesomesauce! And then in the great will-they/won't-they relationship BS with her and Nox she made the anti-relationship choice (another first for YA!!!)...and then everything with that was thrown out the window. And in he major Oz=Home/Kansas=Home debate, Amy made the unexpected, less fantasy choice and it was great...until, once again, the great writer of words decided "You know what? Fuck it. Amy gets everything. She gets her mom AND Nox. She get Kansas AND Oz." Fuck that. There need to be REAL choices and REAL consequences to choices. Yeah, you get your happy ending, perfectly wrapped up with the pretty little bow, but it's NOT satisfying. It's lame and masturbatory.

    A great way to wrap up this series. I found this book had great pacing; the momentum of the plot was always moving forward so it didn't drag like the other novels did at times.

    So, for me this wasn't my favorite book in the series, that still goes to Dorothy must die. However, I did like Langwidere A LOT. I thought she was a strong, feisty, bad ass female. It was nice to be in a different setting (Ev instead of Oz). I just found the chapters from Dorothy's POV to be really annoying. I think that's how the author meant them to be, so more power to her. Overall I give this book 4 out of 5 stars and I would recommend this book and series (Though with the prequel novellas it does get really long.)

    This was such a weird series. I didn't particularly enjoy it, but I was compelled to keep reading. It IS an interesting take on the OZ universe, and the characters did become somewhat more developed, but I'm still not sure I can recommend it. And yet I read ALL FOUR NOVELS.
