Dorothy Must Die is a 2014 young adult book and the debut novel of Danielle Paige.Amy Gumm is a rebellious teenage girl coming from a broken home in the poor town of Flat Hill, Kansas. When a tornado hits, she gets swept away to the wonderful land of Oz. However, she isn't in the Oz that she remembers from the movie and the books - and the Dorothy she meets is certainly not the Dorothy that she is familiar with. She is rescued from a Fate Worse than Death and then joins the Order of the Wicked who tells her their one goal: Dorothy Must Die.There are three sequels: The Wicked Will Rise (2015), Yellow Brick War (2016), and The End of Oz (2017). A series of prequels and midquels building up to the first book have been published too, focusing on other characters including Dorothy, the Wizard, Jellia Jamb, the Scarecrow, Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion. All the digital novellas can be purchased alongside the first two books via e-reader bookstores. | |

Anyone Can Die | |
| Dorothy Must Die / int_1237828f | comment |
Anyone Can Die: In the corrupted remains of what used to be Oz, nobody is safe, not from Dorothy's wrath or from Amy's magical knife. Amongst the casualties as of the third book and numerous prequels include all four of Dorothy's companions at Amy's hand, Aunt Em and Uncle Henry in the prequel, Indigo, Gert (averted), Jellia Jamb, Polychrome, and the Wizard. | |

Adaptational Sexuality: In the original Oz novels, there was no indication of Tip or Ozma's sexuality, with the latter being portrayed as Ambiguously Gay at best. The Wicked Will Rise reveals that Pete is gay, though it’s possible this is only because Pete is technically Ozma. | |

But Amy and the Wizard strike a decisive blow against her, by killing the Tin Woodman and removing his heart.

Alternate Continuity | |
| Dorothy Must Die / int_450c5a85 | comment |
Alternate Continuity: As revealed in the prequels, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz happened basically the same way, although Dorothy was 14 whereas in the book she's obviously much younger. The timeline has also been moved up as Uncle Henry mentions having fought in World War One, probably meaning that it happened around the time the more well-known film came out. The continuity with the original Oz books diverges further from there. Ozma takes the throne from the Scarecrow as in The Marvelous Land of Oz, although he's much more bitter about it in this version, and the rest of the books are retconned as Dorothy's return to Oz is completely different from Ozma of Oz. At the same time though, there are still a lot of cameos from characters of the later books, so perhaps they still happened in Broad Strokes in this continuity. | |

| Dorothy Must Die / int_504a1991 | comment |
Body Horror: The first book warrants its own page. The sequels tone it down. The Tin Woodman has cyborg guards formed by the Scarecrow, part flesh, part mechanical. Not only that, Indigo is killed with acid bubbles in a very gruesome way. Glamora's cheek has a hole shaped like a crescent moon in it. The Scarecrow, whose brain is a mess of pink goo. The Lion has unnaturally bulging muscles that grow and shrink depending on how much fear he absorbs. Dorothy when Oz's magic burns her | |

"Not So Different" Remark | |
| Dorothy Must Die / int_984ef9ef | comment |
"Not So Different" Remark: Amy stops and ponders whether or not she's that different from Dorothy - after all, both are assassins. Similarly, a lot of comparisons can be drawn between various characters presented in the "real" world. Notably Dorothy and Madison. Becomes a plot point in Yellow Brick War, that Amy faces the same kinds of temptations that Dorothy did. | |

Greater-Scope Villain | |
| Dorothy Must Die / int_9b06e314 | comment |
Greater-Scope Villain: The prequel suggests that Glinda is one for Dorothy, showing her bringing Dorothy back to Oz, knowing the shoes' magic would make her go insane in due time and eventually drive her to depose Ozma. It's hinted at even more in "End of Oz". The Nome King is revealed to be The Chessmaster of everything, working with Glinda for a higher goal. | |

Canon Discontinuity: In the first book, Amy watches her mother in the magic picture, celebrating six months of sobriety. At the start of the third book, we learn that only a month has gone by during Amy's adventures in Oz. The line in the first book firmly establishing discontinuity indicates that Amy is still lost to her: | |

Happiness Is Mandatory: In Dorothy-ruled Oz. God help you if she catches you not looking like you're "having the absolute best time of [your life] in her company". For this very purpose, Ozians often use a magical substance called PermaSmile, which is exactly what it sounds like — a magic gel that, when applied, forces your mouth to smile. | |
