In this wildly creative, horror-soaked reimagining of L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, nothing is as it seems in Dorothy’s dystopian nightmare. Most of all Dorothy herself. A dystopian nightmare for fans of Tender Is the Flesh and Cursed Bunny.
This isn’t the world of Oz you remember, and no road is safe here.
A woman teetering on the edge after a terrible loss. Fanatical militants, hidden behind grimacing masks, whose slogans are written in blood red. A magnetically charming imposter, with so many faces that even he can no longer distinguish the real from the fake. Desecrated corpses and organs scattered across the city, sending investigators running in opposite directions. An endless nightmare, from which some will never awaken, and vengeance that has taken years to ripen.
This is Oz now and you’ll never guess who is behind the curtain. This edge-of-your-seat retelling of the beloved classic, filled with a twisted cast of your favourite characters, brings together horror and revenge in a blood-soaked, funhouse mirror reflection of the timeless tale. Translated from the French for the first time, The Bloody Brick Road will transport you to a dark new world.
