COVER REVEAL!
Munchkins, I am so excited to share the all new absolutely gorgeous covers @harpercollinsuk created for my beloved NYT Bestselling Dorothy Must Die series. Huge thanks to Artist Joey Kao @queen_joey who brought my characters back to life in glorious technicolor!
These will release December 9th in the UK and February 24th in Canada.
I love them so much. This series has gotten so much new life in the age of #Wicked and I am so grateful to all the readers who are reading it for the first time or all over again. I owe a huge thank you to my Harper Collins family, which has been there for my Dorothy from Day One. @harper360ya@harpercollinsca
Follow Your Yellow Brick Road, Munchkins 🌈
The New York Times bestselling series that reimagines the Oz saga.
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.
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.
Ten years ago today, #DorothyMustDie and you, Munchkins changed my life. Before Dorothy I had a whole career as a soap writer (thank you #GuidingLight family) and I'd sold a pilot to @mtv (thank you @alroker .) I never imagined Dorothy would become a NYT bestseller or that I would sell a million books. Dorothy was supposed to be just another writing job that keep me a working writer. I never dreamed of the response or of all you, Munchkins. There is really nothing like the love you have all given me! Every read, every, tweet, every piece of fan art, every letter and and every cosplay, has meant the world to me and I just want to thank you all for all the love and support. I love you all and I am so grateful to you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🌈🌈🌈🌈
I have a ton of things planned for this anniversary year, so watch this space!
