Exclusive trailer: Preview the book ‘Dorothy Must Die’<\/h1>\n

Whitney Matheson, USA TODAY<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/object><\/p>\n

Beneath that sweet exterior, Dorothy Gale is a cold, hard witch.<\/p>\n

That’s the idea behind a new young-adult book, anyway \u2014 and I think it’s one that might prompt teens (and their parents) to take another plunge into the land of Oz.<\/p>\n

In her dark new novel,\u00a0Dorothy Must Die<\/a><\/i>,\u00a0Danielle Paige\u00a0re-imagines the fantasy landscape we grew up with. Her world paints the Scarecrow as a character who “conducts inhumane experiments on winged monkeys,” the Tin Man as a trained killer, the Cowardly Lion as a “monster out for blood” and\u00a0Dorothy as a power-hungry woman who must be stopped.<\/p>\n

Today I’m debuting the trailer for the book, which goes on sale next week. Intrigued? A whopping\u00a012 free chapters have been posted<\/a>\u00a0on Epic Reads. For $1.99 you also can grab\u00a0No Place Like Oz<\/a><\/i>, Paige’s prequel e-book.<\/p>\n
