   Fantasy román ze země Oz, podle kterého vznikl slavný muzikál i film Čarodějka. Když Dorotka zvítězila nad Zlou čarodějnicí ze Západu v klasickém příběhu L. Franka Bauma Čaroděj ze země Oz, byli jsme svědky jen její části příběhu. Ale co její úhlavní nepřítelkyně, záhadná Čarodějka? Kde se vzala? Proč je tak zlá? A jaká je pravá povaha zla? Román Čarodějka vypráví příběh o zemi, kde zvířata mluví a touží po uznání a Plecháč se stane obětí domácího násilí. A pak je tu malá holčička se zelenou pletí jménem Elfaba, která vyroste v nechvalně proslulou Zlou čarodějnici ze Západu. Chytré a popudlivé stvoření, které nikdo nechápe a které stojí proti všem našim předpokladům o dobru a zlu.
