Fresh Fiction Review

Out Of Oz
Gregory Maguire

Reviewed by Lyn Nicholas
Posted January 5, 2013

Fantasy

Okay, so just to get everything out on the table, I love absolutely everything related to Wizard of Oz. everything about Oz is mesmerizing and addictive to me. Ever since I got my first glimpse of that yellow brick road, I have been obsessed. So it's not much of a stretch that I adore the Wicked books.

In this newest and final book of the series, Oz is in a state of civil unrest. Munchkin land and the Emerald City are at war as an invasion attempt of Muchkinland begins. The Lion is actually a Wanted fugitive and Glinda is locked up in her own house. And Dorothy is now in town! When did things become so complicated? And it hasn't even really gotten started...

OUT OF OZ is the last book in the Wicked series and is just as amazing as the first. The story held within these pages is intoxicating to say the least. Oz is such an outstandingly beautiful and vivid world that it is impossible to not fall in love with it and the people who populate this enchanting land.

Gregory Maguire consistently delivers fun, fantastical and page-turning tales, especially when it comes to the stories out of Oz. I'm so happy to have experienced these highly imaginative novels but also sad to see it end.

I would easily recommend this series for fans of the movie or fantasy fan in general!

SUMMARY

The marvelous land of Oz is knotted with social unrest: The Emerald City is mounting an invasion of Munchkinland, Glinda is under house arrest, and the Cowardly Lion is on the run from the law. And look who’s knocking at the door. It’s none other than Dorothy. Yes, that Dorothy. Amid all this chaos, Elphaba’s granddaughter, the tiny green baby born at the close of Son of a Witch, has come of age. Now, Rain will take up her broom in an Oz wracked by war.
