To stop evil Dorothy (who, it turns out, is not dead) once and for all and save Oz, Amy (Yellow Brick War) travels to the bleak land of Ev, ruled by the equally evil Nome King. While the Dorothy story line anticlimactically ends in this fourth volume--narrated from Amy's and (less successfully) Dorothy's perspectives--it's clear that additional adventures still await Amy in Oz.
