A war-torn return to Maguire’s Oz
The fourth and final Wicked Years novel brings Gregory Maguire’s alternate Oz into open political conflict. Social unrest reaches from the Emerald City to Munchkinland, with Glinda confined to house arrest, the Cowardly Lion pursued by the law, and civil war looming. Against that upheaval, Rain—Elphaba’s granddaughter, first introduced as a baby in Son of a Witch—steps into adulthood and takes up a broom. Dorothy Gale also returns as the series gathers its established figures and story lines for its concluding volume. The book frames Baum’s familiar fantasy world through questions of power, war, inheritance, and the consequences carried across generations.

New York Times Bestseller
Gregory Maguire's stunning saga set in the world of Oz comes full circle in the unforgettable conclusion to the Wicked Years epic fantasy series which started with Wicked, the multimillion-copy bestseller and basis for the #1 smash hit movie starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande.
Bestselling author Gregory Maguire's remarkable series, The Wicked Years, comes full circle with this, his fourth and final excursion in his dark Oz reimagining across a richer, more complex landscape of "the magical land of Oz."
In this compelling political fantasy, Out of Oz brilliantly reimagines L. Frank Baum's world over the rainbow as wracked with social unrest--placing Glinda the good witch under house arrest and having the Cowardly Lion on the lam from the law as the Emerald City prepares to make a brutal civil war on Munchkinland.
Amid all this chaos, Elphaba's granddaughter, the tiny green baby born at the close of Son of a Witch, has come of age. Now Rain will take up her broom in an Oz wracked by war.
Even Dorothy Gale makes a triumphant return in Maguire's magnificent Oz finale--tying up every loose green end of the series he began with his classic Wicked, the basis for the smash hit Broadway musical.
