About the author
Kendra Moreno
74 books791 followersKendra Moreno is secretly a spy but when she’s not dealing in secrets and espionage, you can find her writing her latest adventure. She lives in Texas where the summer days will make you melt, and southern charm comes free with every meal. She’s a recovering Road Rager (kind of) and slowly overcoming her Star Wars addiction (nope!), and she definitely didn’t pass on her addiction to her son (she did). She has one hellhound named Mayhem who got tired of guarding the Gates of Hell and now guards her home against monsters. She’s a geek, a mother, a scuba diver, a tyrannosaurus rex, and a wordsmith who sometimes switches out her pen for a sword.
If you see Kendra on the streets, don’t worry: you can distract her with talks about Kylo Ren or Loki.

Loved all of the short stories, it was awesome to hear from some of our favorite characters again but: What is wrong with these children parents???? Fearing them and turning them into monsters!!! And prince Phillip??? What can I say about him without giving away spoilers? Just know that I hate him! And I love Kendra for being a writer that can make us feel such strong emotions!!! Can't wait to read what comes next!!!!

I loved this companion to The Heirs of OZ series. I experienced so many emotions while reading this book
VENGEFUL AS A BEAUTY - Ananke- where to begin. My heart broke for her several times throughout this story. I loved watching her grow in this story - perserving with each obstacle thrown her way. And then, the defining moments that turned her into what we met throughout the series.
THE FLAMINGO IN OZ - The formation of a brotherhood like no other. Before Flam knew what was happening, he was thrust into a world like no other. What happens next ( or should I say the next 100+ years is nothing like what you would expect. The epic battles, the transformation and the forming of a bond like no other. I am ready for more.
ORIGINS: GRETAL - THE RISE OF TWO WORLD BREAKERS - This was an interesting tale. A retelling of Hansel and Gretal. The bond of siblings shines bright and grows stronger throughout the story. They grew from little children into a Kick Butt duo to be feared!
BLEEDING HEARTS AND THREADED NEEDLES - An attack can't stop this celebration!!!! Through the midst of chaos and destruction we find ourselves a part of a joyous celebration! The description of the clothing was amazing. I could close my eyes and just picture the stunning creations. The March Hare's part was priceless and every bit a part of him.
I love this series even more after this book and can't wait for the next book to come out!!!

Loved It!
As always the last book tied everything up in a nice bow! I loved that I got a lot more insight on Ana, Hansel & Gretel & why they were the way they were. I understand how they got to be this way. I love each world & the characters in it but Wonderland & it's inhabitants holds a special place in my heart so I'm always excited about more stories with them. I loved getting to see the flashbacks with Doe & Flam's time is Oz & the friendships he created! I would read a whole book on Flam & Doe! I love them so much!! That wedding was EVERYTHING!!! It was absolutely prefect for Tin & Briella!!!

Finale
This book people! Okay so every baddy has his/her story but never have I felt more sorry for a baddy as I do for Ananke, I mean I would probably be even worse if I was her, I cried for her.
Kendra doesn't stop there oh no, let's also have feelings for Hansel and Gretel because yeah if she plans to unalive them we gonna cry because how unfair!
I love the story of how Flam knew the Heirs so that brought a smile to my face thanks for that Kendra.
And that last part yas people you live for that one if you have read heartless as a tinman!

Absolutely love the companion book for The Heirs of Oz. I have been reading all these series from Kendra Moreno from the beginning with the Sons of Wonderland series. Obsessed much. Yes I am. This book has 4 short stories in it. And they are oh so good. No spoilers. But I would definitely read this one. I am so looking forward to reading the next part of the series which starts with Lords of Grimm. So excited!!!

This book was An amazing ending to the Oz portion of this series. Anakae's story definitely had me feeling for her and almost completely forgetting she is the baddie in the books. Kendra Moreno has done amazing with this series and I cant wait to see what happens in the Grimm books!

Monsters are made, not born
This is a prequel story for the Heirs of Oz trilogy!! However the story focuses on rise of the villains. Read their side of their story and bawl your eyes out! 😭💀.. and like most villains... they are made, not born, so sometimes we understand the villains.#GetRevenge#IsayMurderthemAll
