When seventeen-year-old Wren falls through a forgotten portal beneath an orphanage, she expects death—not a shattered land where the sky is sickly green, magic is broken, and even the shadows whisper her name. This is Oz. But not the one in the storybooks. The Tin Man is rusted and battle-worn. The Lion is brave but scarred. The Scarecrow’s mind is unraveling thread by thread. Dorothy Gale has been missing for years. And the Wicked Witch? She never died. She’s been rebuilding her power in the dark— and she’s been searching for one thing: A storm-born girl. The moment Wren arrives, Oz begins to fracture. Nightmares crawl out of the forests. Forgotten spells ignite. Ancient enemies awaken. And the Witch knows exactly who Wren is… even when Wren doesn’t. To save Dorothy—and a world that doesn’t belong to her— Wren must choose between truth and identity, family and fate, fear and the storm rising inside her. Some heroines are chosen. Others are forged. Wren is forged. And Oz will never be the same.
