Comments: The Rise of Oz is the untold story of how the Land of Oz became what it was — told through the eyes of Theodora, the young witch of the west who believed in justice; Glinda, the northern witch who believed in strategy; Evanora, the eastern witch who believed in power; and Oscar Diggs, the carnival fraudster from Kansas who accidentally became a Wizard. Set decades before Dorothy's house falls from the sky, this novel traces the political machinations, betrayals, and genuine magic that shaped Oz into the wonder and the lie it would become. The Emerald City was not built from emerald. The Wizard was not a wizard. And the wickedness of the Wicked Witch was not where it began. For readers who always suspected Oz had a darker and more interesting history than the story they were told — this is that history. |
