When a strange storm rips Dorothy Gale from her quiet, ordinary life, she lands in a land that’s anything but ordinary—Oz, a dazzling realm of neon towers, glittering poppy fields, and secrets lurking behind every emerald door. But this isn’t the fairy-tale kingdom you remember. The Wicked Witch has a grip on the city’s very heart, and the Wizard’s promises might be nothing more than smoke and mirrors. Joined by an eclectic trio—a brainy hacker, a steel-hearted ex-soldier, and a runaway with more courage than sense—Dorothy sets out for Emerald City. Along the way, she’ll face twisted versions of Oz’s most famous wonders, confront her own fears, and discover that the real magic lies in the choices she makes. Perfect for fans of Wicked, Once Upon a Time, and reimagined classics, The Road to Emerald City blends the charm of L. Frank Baum’s timeless tale with a modern edge, delivering adventure, heart, and just a touch of danger.
