The global bestseller that inspired the hit musical phenomenon.

The third book in Gregory Maguire’s Wicked Years series – inspiration for the major movie and record-breaking box office sensation.

As civil war looms in Oz, an ancient and tetchy oracle named Yackle prepares for death.

Before she can return to dust, however, the Cowardly Lion – an enigmatic figure named Brrr – arrives seeking knowledge about Elphaba Thropp, the Wicked Witch of the West. The woman who defended him when he was a cub.

But Yackle, too, demands answers of her own.
