"Oakes continues to weave literary magic as she pulls you down the rabbit hole into a Wonderland like you've never read before." -- NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Chanda Hahn"Fans of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland will enjoy the twists Oakes gives to familiar characters. Heart-stopping action makes the pages fly, and Dinah's struggle to stay true to herself amid impossible expectations resonates." -- Publishers Weekly"This latest in fairy tales retold makes the classic villain less villainous by showing her tenderhearted backstory." -- Booklist"Every good villain deserves an origin story, and Oakes offers a fascinating glimpse into the mad queen's complex and heartbreaking past. The novel offers some wonderful reinventions of Carroll's classic, and fans of Alice's more sinister elements will appreciate Oakes' macabre touches." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
