A granddaughter of Kansas. A pair of silver shoes. A road that leads to a very different Oz.
1939, Kansas. Clara Gale Kincaid has grown up on her grandmother Dorothy's impossible stories of witches and talking scarecrows, a city of emerald, and magical silver shoes. Clara is convinced they're just the tall tales of an old woman no one believes anymore.
Until she slips on a pair of silver shoes in the attic, trips through a window, and lands in the dust of a red brick road.
This isn't the Oz from Dorothy's stories. Queen Mombi sits on a stolen throne, her guards and strange machines watching every move. Glinda the Good has been missing for a decade. And somewhere under the rocks, the Nome King is keeping a prisoner wanted by Mombi herself.
With the help of Pollychrome, and Jack Pumpkinhead, Clara is forced into a dangerous bargain: travel to the Nome King's cavern, retrieve a notorious criminal named Timothy Cobalt, and deliver him to Mombi in exchange for a wish that could change her life forever.
Red Brick Road of Oz is a fresh, heartfelt return to L. Frank Baum's classic world, full of adventure, secret identities, found family, and the hard choice between staying in a land of wonders and going back to the person who never stopped waiting for you.
Perfect for fans of classic fantasy, fairy-tale retellings, and anyone who's ever wondered what happened after Dorothy grew up.
