"[Dorothy Must Die] strikes a similar tone to Marisa Meyer's Cinder
series, with its blend of fantasy, humor, and horror, and it will
likely inspire fans of that series to make their way to the Emerald
City."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"Debut author Paige doesn't hold back in this fast-paced action
novel. Give this cinematic upper-YA novel to fans of A. G. Howard's
Splintered, Frank Beddor's Looking Glass Wars, and TV shows such as
Once Upon a Time and Grimm."--School Library Journal
"Dorothy Must Die is kind of the ultimate in girl-powered
literature. You've got empowered heroines, sure, but Paige also
conjures a formidable villainess in Dorothy and some manipulative
lady revolutionaries. Here, women and girls are allowed to be
anything. This really is a woman's world."--Nerdist.com
"Paige delivers a solid, intense, and strange narrative that draws
deeply on its source material."--Publishers Weekly
"Paige has spirited readers back to The Wizard of Oz. It's a
classic made more sinister."--ALA Booklist
"Readers of Baum's books will take special delight in seeing new
twists on the old characters, and they will greet the surprise
climactic turnabout with the smugness of insiders."--Kirkus
Reviews
PRAISE FOR DOROTHY MUST DIE: "Gone are the days of rainbows,
Lollipop Guilds and pretty much anything to sing about in a major
key. For those willing to go on a quest with a heroine more attuned
to our times than the Dust Bowl era, there's no place like it.--USA
