ELPHIE A Wicked Childhood

by | Read by Cynthia Erivo

Fantasy • 8.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

Actor Cynthia Erivo narrates this WICKED prequel about future witch Elphaba's childhood. In the land of Oz, Erivo introduces listeners to precocious Elphie and her missionary family as they travel across the swamps and marshes of Quadling country. Elphie's complex relationship with her disabled sister, Nessarose, and curiosity about the world at large are at the center of this story. Erivo's clear delivery and English accent invite listeners to escape into the fantasy world of Oz. Her voice is smooth and warm, and she clearly delivers the fanciful language. Whimsical music between sections heightens the listening experience. This audiobook sets listeners up for the future events and characters in the other WICKED novels.
