Queen of Hearts

By: Colleen Oakes

Narrated by: Moira Quirk

The first novel in Colleen Oakes’s epic, imaginative and twisted series, perfect for fans of Dorothy Must Die and Heartless, tackles the origin of one of the most infamous villains—the Queen of Hearts.

This is not the story of the Wonderland we know. Alice has not fallen down a rabbit hole. This is a Wonderland where beneath each smile lies a secret, each tart comes with a demand, and only prisoners tell the truth.

Dinah is the princess who will one day reign over Wonderland. She has not yet seen the dark depths of her kingdom; she longs only for her father’s approval and a future with the boy she loves. But when a betrayal breaks her heart and threatens her throne, she is launched into Wonderland’s dangerous political game. Dinah must stay one step ahead of her cunning enemies or she’ll lose not just the crown but her head.

Don’t miss Blood of Wonderland, the must-read sequel to Dinah’s story!

Wonderland

I enjoyed this different perspective on an old favorite story. You learn the backstory for the Queen of Hearts.

Wonderland

Awesome I'm going to go get the next one. I don't doubt it'll be just a great.

A more than fine novel for fans of Carroll's work

The story is well crafted, plus the vision of the original characters is both pleasantly familiar and refreshing.

The nod to American McGee's Alice made me giddy, though.

ADDICTED

This story is entertaining can't get enough! I wish I could watch this on Netflix. It would be a great series. Same feel as Alice in wonderland but a completely different story line.

Loved It!

Loved everything about this story. Very addictive and entertaining. Time to begin reading book two!
