Summary: In Yellow Brick War, the new girl from Kansas Amy Gumm is caught between her home and Oz. Tornadoes must have a thing about girls from Kansas, because-just like Dorothy Amy got swept away on one too. She landed in Oz, where Good is Wicked, Wicked is Good, and the Wicked Witches clued her in to her true calling: an assassin. The only way to stop Dorothy from destroying Oz and Kansas is to kill her and Amy Gumm is the only one who can do it. But she failed. Because of Amy, the portal between the worlds has been opened. And if she can't find a way to close it Dorothy will make sure she'll never get to go home again. She must stop Dorothy once and for all.

My Thoughts: This book was great. Probably my favourite from this series so far. The beginning continued on directly from where The Wicked Will Rise ended and I loved it. Yet again, Yellow Brick War ended in such an irritating cliff hanger I can't wait until book four comes out!!

I loved seeing Amy and her mother again. Their relationship changed and it was so nice to see it. I also liked how Danielle Paige stripped Amy of her powers in Kansas so she had to carry out her 'mission' without them.

The whole concept of finding Dorothy's shoes was so well done and the whole rest of the plot entwined so well. The action really made an impact on the book and made it really enjoyable for me to read.

The Dorothy Must Die series is a brilliant re-telling of The Wizard of Oz. It's so unique and it's nice to read something different every once in a while!
