An epic adult fantasy inspired by The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
What if Dorothy Gale didn't leave everything behind when she returned to Kansas?
Dorothy Gale went home.
But Oz never forgot her.
Now, generations later, a storm sweeps her granddaughter, Eliza Gale, across worlds and into an Oz unlike anything from childhood stories.
This is not the Oz you remember.
It is a living land where forests breathe and choose who walks through them, where magic runs through the soil as thick as blood, and where ancient kingdoms have spent generations waiting for something...or someone.
Oz knows Eliza's name before she can speak it.
She didn't ask to inherit a forgotten bloodline. She didn't ask to become entangled with a guarded commander who has spent years keeping everyone at a distance. And she certainly didn't ask to become the target of an ancient evil that seems to recognize something inside her that she cannot yet understand.
As Eliza uncovers the truth about her family, her destiny, and the secrets hidden deep within Oz, she realizes why the land called for her and no one else.
Because some stories never truly end.
They simply wait for the right person to continue them.
