"West of Wicked is a sexy, lush adventure that sends the intrepid heroine Dorothy on a dark and twisted journey. With a cast of dangerous and captivating characters, rich worldbuilding, and a fierce heroine that you can't help but root for, this dark retelling is sure to delight fans both new to and familiar with the world of Oz!" --Elizabeth Helen, Sunday Times bestselling author of the Beasts of the Briar series.

"Fantastically clever and wickedly irreverent... Blending fantasy, romance, political intrigue, and mystery, West of Wicked does an incredible job of modernizing a now-tired plot. This Oz is far more sinister (and a whole lot sexier) than readers have encountered before, and it's likely they'll finish the book on its devastating cliffhanger, clamoring for more." -- Booklist, starred review

"St. Crowe's new series is perfect for romantasy and Wicked fans, with this grown-up reimagining that includes sex scenes and a much grimmer tone than the original classic." --Library Journal
