L. Frank Baum wakes inside the world he created—but Oz has become a nightmare. With Glinda missing, Dorothy furious, and evil spreading beyond Oz, Frank must recover his memories and rewrite the ending before two worlds are destroyed. He wrote the story. Now he must survive it. L. Frank Baum wakes in a desert with no memory, a splitting headache, and a single clue: the green-bound book clutched in his hand. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. A glowing doorway delivers him to a shattered castle where a grown-up and furious Dorothy Gale threatens him at knifepoint. Frank realizes the impossible truth—he's crossed into the world he created. But this Oz isn't as Frank left it when he set down his pen. Glinda is missing, monsters stalk the land, and Dorothy's dearest friends have turned villains. Oz is dying. Even worse, the poison will soon push past Oz's desert border and corrupt the world Frank and the family he loves call home. Frank must tear through the wreckage of his own imagination and rewrite the ending before this mutated final chapter closes on two worlds. Only by piecing together his shattered memories can he solve the mystery of how he arrived and discover who—or what—has twisted Oz into a nightmare.
