Inked in Emeralds

By: Shannon Mayer

Narrated by: Amelia Hugh

A dashingly romantic and rivetingly adventurous new dark fantasy fairy tale retelling from New York Times bestselling author Shannon Mayer inspired by The Wizard of Oz. Perfect for fans of Pirates of the Caribbean, Once Upon a Time, and Wicked.

There’s no place like home…

Surviving a pirate-infested hell-scape—complete with a giant crocodile and a fairy with bad intentions—was rough. I’d been hoping for better days when a cyclone of story-magic dropped me and Hook smack in the middle of a place called Oz.

At first it seems like paradise, but as always, there’s a catch. The Wicked Witch of the West and her flying monkeys are terrorizing the townsfolk, and they’re in desperate need of saving. A job made near impossible when I find out that my mortal enemy, Almira, and The Wicked Witch of the West are one and the same… And she will stop at nothing to end me.

If I ever want to get back to C’an Saas and save my own people, my band of misfits and I will have to defeat the strongest witch who ever lived. With the right combination of wits, heart, and courage, we might have a chance. I just have to hope that the dark pirate of my dreams and Prince Charming don’t kill each other in the process…
