Alice of Oz A Novel from The Oz Multiverse
London, 1912: Just as Alice starts to come to terms with the dreams that plagued her childhood with the help of her empathetic analyst, Dr. James Preston, she's thrown into the grim transition ward of Pastoria House, where she encounters Wendolyn Darling, a fellow dreamer with whom she shares an unknown connection. When their care is taken over by Nan, a sinister figure with violent motives, Wendy's defiance leads to her mysterious disappearance. Alice escapes through a mirror and finds herself in Oz. Meanwhile, Dr. Preston and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, searching for Alice, uncover a chilling secret in Nan's manor: a wardrobe filled with the dreaming heads of women.
Oz: Alice is pursued for powers she unknowingly possesses by Princess Languidere, a deranged beauty driven by blood lust; the exiled witch Mombi; grotesque, flesh-eating gnomes with razor-sharp smiles; and the fallen demi-god Lord Roquat, who waits in the shadows of a crystal palace. With help from shape-shifting Prince Blinkem, the ingenious inventor Tinkerton and his robotic soldier, a spunky young Munchkin, and an emerald-eyed dragon with a particular taste for gnomes, Alice journeys through Queendoms to find Tattypoo, the enigmatic witch of the North, who may hold the key to locating Wendy. Yet, Tattypoo also holds secrets that could alter Alice's destiny and the future of Oz itself. As Alice unravels the mysteries of her existence, she must reconcile her past and reclaim her powers before it's too late.

As a creator with a background in performance, film, and commercial creative production – fantasy and storytelling, and optimism and hope, are at the heart of all that I do. That said, I do like my stories to be a bit dark and twisty! I have honed my craft of storytelling and grown a loyal community of followers on TikTok (@papaterence).
