It was frustrating that everyone was so convinced that I had this great potential to be evil, when all I’d done was show up, get thrown in the dungeon by Dorothy, and then follow the Order’s instructions pretty much exactly. And while that’s not always a problem, it was in this case-for me. In this case, though, I definitely was missing….something. There have been a few times when the second book by far outshines its predecessor and makes up for boring build-ups with no results. They get a bad rap, sure, but there are many good things that come from them, as well. I might not be able to accomplish it, but I was going to die trying.
Some people spend their whole lives searching for the one thing that they can do to say, I changed the world. And I’m just going to come right out and say it: Compared to book one-a now absolute favorite of mine- this book paled in comparison. After devouring a 100% 5 star book, I want the same superiority of action and angst in book two. I become obsessed and nothing is likely to please me any time soon. When I fall in love with a series, it’s no light thing. In no way is it fair, because, especially with me, the first book in a series is always leagues above the rest-it’s just the way it is. I think there’s a certain standard in which second books are expected to live up to. When you claim your name, what will it be? In a place where the line between good and evil shifts with just a strong gust of wind, who can Amy trust-and who is really Wicked? As Amy learns the truth about her mission, she realizes that she’s only just scratched the surface of Oz’s past-and that Kansas, the home she couldn't wait to leave behind, may also be in danger.
Now the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked has vanished, and mysterious Princess Ozma might be Amy’s only ally. To make Oz a free land again, Amy Gumm was given a mission: remove the Tin Woodman’s heart, steal the Scarecrow’s brain, take the Lion’s courage, and then Dorothy must die.īut Dorothy still lives. In this dark, high-octane sequel to the New York Times bestselling Dorothy Must Die, Amy Gumm must do everything in her power to kill Dorothy and free Oz. The Wicked Will Rise ( Dorothy Must Die #2)
