Order of the Wicked

Q: Do I have to buy the ebook to participate in a book club?

No, you don’t have to buy the ebook to participate, but we do recommend it to get the most out of your club. There are several premium social reading features that are only available when you buy the ebook, like annotations, reactions, comment threads, resources, discussion prompts, and more, all embedded right in the text. It’s a unique and immersive way to read.

Q: Why can’t I buy the ebook on the app?

It’s annoying, we know. App store rules prevent us from selling directly in the app, so for now you can only purchase ebooks on our website. Don’t worry: when you purchase an ebook on the web, it’s automatically added to your bookshelf in the app.

Q: How is Fable’s reader different from Kindle?

Kindle is a straightforward e-reader; Fable is an interactive e-reader that includes social features inside the ebooks. When you read an ebook on Fable, you can see and react to the text with others in real time. Start a discussion, share highlights and quotes, add emoji reactions—all of it lives right inside the book. It’s hard to explain and easy to see, so we recommend reading the free sample in one of our most active clubs to get a feel for it.

Q: Do you sell physical books too?

We do not sell physical books at this time. Wish we did? Let us know why here!

Q: Are book clubs free to join on Fable?

Most of our clubs are completely free to join. The only exceptions are clubs marked as “Premium” or “Career Development,” which do require a fee. You can find out more on each club’s detail page.

Q: How do I start a book club with this book on Fable?

The first step is to download the Fable app. From there, you’ll be able to create your own private or public book club and invite others to read with you. Once your club is created, click on the plus sign under “Currently reading” and search for this book to add it to your club.

Good is Wicked and Wicked is Good in the New York Times bestselling Dorothy Must Die series!

This digital original novella is the seventh installment in the series’ prequel arc, and reveals how some members of the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked came to be.

Dorothy Gale’s armies killed Lanadel’s entire family, and she’s determined to seek revenge. She sets off to find the elusive, secretive group known as the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked. They’re rumored to be training their own army to defeat Dorothy. But when she finds them, Lanadel soon learns that she’s seriously underprepared both in fighting skills, as well as magical abilities, and she has to prove herself in order to join the Order and become one of them.

Danielle Paige delivers a dark and compelling reimagining of L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, perfect for fans of Cinder by Marissa Meyer, Beastly by Alex Flinn, and Wicked by Gregory Maguire, and follows some of literature’s most beloved characters as their lives intertwine to bring about the downfall of Oz.

“A retelling of one of the most famous fairytales of all time. Just this time the main character isn't our dear Cinderella, but the one who made all her dreams come true: Farrow, Entente (commonly known as a witch) on the run from the Queen who destroyed her world. Personal thoughts: I loved the magic displayed here, it was honestly the highlight of the film, along with the small twists the book gradually started displaying the more we ventured deep inside the story. I'm hoping Farrow will break free from the original tale and marry instead of . On the other hand I would be elated if ended up marrying , that would be an ending very well deserved for all characters. Talking about characterisation I really liked how Cinderella, South and the members of the courtier were done, their characters being the vividest and the ones that remained inside my mind even after finishing the book. Farrow (Unfortunately yes she had her moments of smartness but they were few) on the other had after she reunited with her sisters became unbearable as soon as she moved inside that house. Every smart idea she'd had in the past was deleted, her sisters literally controlling her in everything and having her use her powers without actual care. Literally, they've been monopolizing her since they found out she was not as magic-less as they thought. Farrow, Farrow, Farrow. Dearest Farrow. You have a working brain use it, there was a reason behind hecate sealing your magic that day, it's not like she woke up one day to choose: -oh-but-let's-seal-Farrows-powers-so that-she-can-struggle-in-life. The story was per see, could the book have been 50/80 pages less at the start? Yes I think so. Will I read the sequel if it comes out? Maybe, just to see if I was correct on who gets with who and the stepsisters learn they aren't exactly the heroes of the story.”

“SPOILERS!! DNF. i did not enjoy this book at all. the concept was very interesting and as someone who loves fairytale retellings i was looking forward to this book but i was so disappointed. first of all, the writing was just not it. there was so much telling instead of showing. the author just tells you that farrow is angry and that she wants revenge. i think an actual sentence is like “i felt rage go through me” or something. what is this? i can’t emotionally connect with the character because you’re just telling me how she feels. she feels angry, she feels sad. what does that look like??? another thing with the writing is a lot of sentences feel clunky. most of the time it makes sense, but it just doesn’t feel right. the pacing is also strange. it feels like there’s too much fluff, and each concept that could be interesting is just a blip in time. another thing that irked me to no end is that all the sisters survived. hello???? the only ones who actually died are iolanta and hecate. that just feels like lazy writing to me. and, back to the telling instead of showing, the initial loss of all of them doesn’t even impact me because i’m just being told how she feels. i think that if just south had survived, i could’ve enjoyed it but the second they all were alive i wanted to scream. i really wanted to like this book. i could have, if either the story had been better or the writing had been better, but with both i just couldn’t do it. it actually inspired me to keep writing my own story so i could do better than this.”
