Naturally this was my next choice after reading Son Of A Witch, but alas I had to wait for the book to arrive at my library. Once it did I picked it up and tried to furiously read it. I found this book a bit slower read than SOAW partially because I don’t think i liked Sir Brr as much and I liked Lir. I tend to get annoyed at whiny characters(both in books and IRL) but about halfway through it really picked up. I think the best bit of the book is really in the last two sections. All that said Yes I really did like the book it showed us even more of Maguire’s Oz, which I love just as much as Baum’s Oz. I do feel the need to pick up some of the original Oz books to read after this one. I am also really thrilled that Maguire as stated that he will be creating another Oz book after this one.
