Once upon a time, the Scarecrow's only wish was to have a brain. This digital original novella is the fifth installment in the prequel arc to the edgy and thrilling New York Times bestsellers Dorothy Must Die and The Wicked Will Rise and follows the Scarecrow after he finally gets his wish. In The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, the Scarecrow received the gift of a brain from the Wizard and was appointed the new ruler of Oz. In The Straw King, the Scarecrow's tale takes a crooked turn when his reign is threatened. With faith in his newfound wisdom shaken, the Scarecrow will turn to anyone who can helpeven if others have their own interests at heart. The Straw King by Danielle Paige is a dark and compelling reimagining of a beloved classic and is perfect for fans of Cinder by Marissa Meyer, Beastly by Alex Flinn, and Wicked by Gregory Maguire.

4/5 for this novella! I thought this was going to be so much darker than it was. Especially considering how dark Scarecrow is. I still enjoyed seeing what happened to him and more proof that Glinda is evil!

Just finished this one. I didn't enjoy it as much as the others I've read in the series. I did still enjoy it just not as much.

Just finished another prequel by Danielle Paige this morning. I'm loving all of these stories so far, and can't wait to read about the Cowardly Lion and the Tin Man next. 🦁🤖

ChicaReads This is an awesome series.. Coming from Kansas, I never liked the Wizard of Oz but Iove this twisted tale. 7y

After finishing the Dorothy Must Die stories earlier on audiobook, I immediately downloaded The Straw King on ebook. 🌽🌽🌽

Book 5 in the prequel arc in the Dorothy Must Die series is much better than Heart of Tin. This goes back a bit and shows what happened when the Scarecrow was still king of Oz, and the way Glinda manipulated everything to make sure Ozma was the next ruler. I'm totally addicted to this series! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Oz #Scarecrow 👑🌪💛
