Wicked Warlock of Oz

Genderbent Fairytales Collection, Book 6

De: KuroKoneko Kamen

Narrado por: L.A. Johnson

The Wicked Warlock of the West, Jadyn, has a plan to conquer Oz.

World Domination Plan:
1. Become the Goblin King: done
2. Become King of the Direwolves: done
3. Befriend Theodore Gale, the Foretold Savior of Oz: done
4. Save the Emerald City from peril: done
5. Become King of the Trolls
6. Defeat the Good Wizard of the North
7. Defeat the Wicked Warlock of the East, Dr. Doppelganger
8. Defeat the Good Wizard of the South, Reginald

Next on his list is to become King of the Trolls. But to do that he has to infiltrate Troll Kingdom and defeat King Belwort’s Champion in the Trolls’ Fighting Competition. Afterwards, he plans on freeing the goblin slaves in the North in order to increase his military might.

Meanwhile, playboy cowboy Theodore Gale is having his own problems. When a giant robot attacks the Emerald City Theo’s mother, Ozlyn, is kidnapped. Theo wants to rescue the Sultry Sorceress of Oz from Dr. Doppelganger's evil clutches before she gets technolyzed, but a robot army stands in his way.

Theodore promises Jadyn to help him win the heart of Tina Woodcutter in exchange for his help. Unfortunately, the cyborg assassin has a cursed artificial heart. If Tina feels emotions like anger or love too strongly her heart will malfunction, and she’ll die. Their love seems doomed. Or is it?

Jadyn comes up with a plan to defeat Dr. Doppelganger that involves tree spirits, and the rescue party travels south towards Dryad Forest. As their adventure unfolds Jadyn keeps crossing things off his World Domination checklist. Is this a mere coincidence, or is Jadyn tired of playing the hero?

so good

such an amazing story and the characters felt like they went so well with the world

Totally Awesome!!!

I am loving KuroKoneko Kamen's genderbent fairytales!! If you haven't heard any of these stories then you are missing out of wonderful storytelling and awesome characters! Now onto the book. 'This one comes after Theodore Gale in Oz and gives Jayden the spotlight. I loved it. As with the other books this one does not disappoint. Will Jayden continue doing good or will he return to his evil ways? Will he win Tina's heart? This has lots of action, adventure, twists and turns that will keep you listening long after you should be in bed! The story is very well written and the characters are complete fun to listen to. The narration, once again by L.A. Johnson is wonderfully done. He keeps the voices the same from Theodore Gale in Oz as well as giving the new characters their own. He really brings the story to life and enriches the listener's experience! Grab your copy today and get hooked like the rest of us!

LOVED IT!!!

I completely fell in love with the wicked warlock! It was great to see him be viewed the way he truly was in the end. I love the major twists in the land of oz and it's characters! I definately recommended it to all adults!

Another fantastic story to the Genderbent world!

Wicked Warlock of Oz (Genderbent Fairytales Collection, Book 6) by KuroKoneko Kamen and narrated by L. A. Johnson is another fantastic adult retelling for the Genderbent world! I highly recommend if you are like me and are not a fan of old school fairytales and enjoy an adult, modern twist to them.

What to expect: The summary always does a wonderful job and without giving too many spoilers away I’ll leave it at magic, friendships, love, teleportation, emerald mines, sex, humor, elves, trolls, princess, demon, Black Swamp village, and plenty more. Good character development and world building.

I love that her stories connect the characters over the course of the series. If you are new to her, you can start with any of the books, although I recommend beginning with the first as the characters will make more sense.

The narrator, L. A. Johnson, was pleasant. As the series continues, the narrations become more polished. 4 ½ stars for this one.

Overall I recommend, it’s an entertaining story sure to keep your interest.

Parental guidance/trigger warnings: This is an adult retelling that contains mature themes. Occasional swearing, violence, death, sex, and like elements.

Great Villain turned hero story!

Loved this one! I think it was even better than the first one in the genderbent Oz series. I can’t resist a good antihero story and Jayden totally fits the bill. He’s the villain that just isn’t evil at heart. He has an intriguing back story and no matter how hard he tries to remain closed off he can’t help letting people in. He also can’t stop himself from standing up for what he knows is right. In the end he truly is the hero of the story. He finds a purpose among the misfits and monsters of Oz and even finds love.
As with all the Kamen’s audiobooks the narrator does a great job. Emotions and personalities are clearly expressed and the books are overall fun to listen to.
Can wait to dive into the next one!

I’m love with a villain

What a great twist on the wicked warlock. You definitely find yourself rooting for the bad guy and then realizing he’s not so bad after all!

All these gender bent fairytales have sucked me in! I’m not usually a fantasy reader, but these stories have changed my mind. Can’t wait for the next one!

Great listen

I love this authors gender bender books, they make the original stories so much better. This is Jadyn's story and let me say it makes so much sense listening to it his side of things. This book does not disappoint as it has plenty of action, adventure, twists and turns that will keep you listening long after you should be in bed! As before with other books in this series the narrator did an excellent job

Adult Trip Back To Oz

The author has created an adult bent fairy tail that will draw you in and keep you hanging on. Suspend the need to keep Oz from your memory and enjoy!

Wicked Warlock of Oz

In this book the story continues in the land of Oz, but we get to hear Jadyn’s story. Jadyn grows so much emotionally since finding a friend in Theodore and begins to see good in himself. I loved this book and hope to listen to even more in the future with this series.

Awesome genderbent book!

This book was an awesome genderbent fairy tale! I will definitely be listening to more from this author!
