There’s a new Wicked Witch in Oz—and her name is Dorothy. This digital original novella is the second installment in the prequel arc to the edgy and exciting New York Times bestseller Dorothy Must Die. Dorothy Gale is back . . . and she’s not the sweet little heroine of Oz anymore. She’s power-hungry and vicious, and she leaves a trail of destruction beneath her spike-heeled, magical shoes. But behind the scenes, there’s someone else pulling the strings. Someone who doesn’t want fame or glory—just control. Glinda of the North brought Dorothy back to Oz for a reason. And in The Witch Must Burn, a young maid is about to discover that a witch who says she’s Good might be the most dangerous kind of Wicked. The Witch Must Burn, by debut author Danielle Paige, is a dark and compelling reimagining of a beloved classic and is perfect for fans of Cinder by Marissa Meyer, Beastly by Alex Flinn, and Wicked by Gregory Maguire.

The New York Times bestselling first book in a dark series that reimagines the Oz saga, from debut author Danielle Paige. Start at the beginning and discover your new series to binge! My name is Amy Gumm—and I'm the other girl from Kansas. I've been recruited by the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked. I've been trained to fight. And I have a mission: Remove the Tin Woodman's heart. Steal the Scarecrow's brain. Take the Lion's courage. And—Dorothy must die. I didn't ask for any of this. I didn't ask to be some kind of hero. But when your whole life gets swept up by a tornado—taking you with it—you have no choice but to go along, you know? Sure, I've read the books. I've seen the movies. I know the song about the rainbow and the happy little blue birds. But I never expected Oz to look like this. To be a place where Good Witches can't be trusted, Wicked Witches may just be the good guys, and winged monkeys can be executed for acts of rebellion. There's still a road of yellow brick—but even that's crumbling. What happened? Dorothy. They say she found a way to come back to Oz. They say she seized power and the power went to her head. And now no one is safe.

Book Description
In the Old Testament, the Bible makes a very bold and firm statement regarding witches or sorcerers. It reads in Exodus 22:18; Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. This was Gods attitude regarding the practice of witchcraft-it was regarded as an abomination and God was out to destroy this wicked spirit amongst His people. We are the New Testament Church and God’s attitude towards witchcraft has not changed. We however know and understand that we are now fighting not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of the devil- in this case witchcraft. I believe God wants you to deal violently and address the powers behind your problem. I have never seen anyone win this battle in the flesh. God fights our battles, but we need to engage in spiritual warfare prayerfully and strategically so that we can have victory. Therefore, get ready to stand your ground in the spirit and let’s destroy the spirit of witchcraft in Jesus name. The Lord will reveal many things in this season and all you need to stand on is His word....
