The Lost Girls of Glinda the Good — Andrew Heller

Ten-year old Sarah Johnson is lured away from her home  in a tiny Native American village to another world by the Sorceress, Glinda the Good. Sarah soon finds herself a pawn in a deadly game between Glinda and the Witches of Oz. The year is 1809, long before Dorothy Gale set foot on the Yellow Brick Road, before even the Wizard, but  Sarah Johnson's deeds and those of her companions, Phil, the  Logical Kalidah, and Dusty, the Dust Devil, will change Oz foreverThe Lost Girls of Glinda the Good tells the forgotten history of an ancient  time. It is a story of a prophecy of hope turned by good intentions into a tragedy, a story of courage and betrayal. If you have ever asked yourself why the  great Sorceress sent an innocent Kansas farmgirl out to kill the Wicked Witch of the West, instead of doing it herself, you will find the  answer here. The Lost Girls of Glinda the Good is not just a story for fans of L. Frank Baum's books, but written for anyone who enjoys reading a gripping, magical adventure.
