Definitely Not Kansas...

Oz According to Gregory Maguire
In Maguire's first Oz novel, Wicked, we learned about Elphaba, the much misunderstood Wicked Witch of the West. Son of a Witch told the story of Liir, Elphaba's son or not; we'll not say witch or which...

The third novel in the Wicked Years series, A Lion Among Men, is due for release this coming Tuesday. We expect to enjoy learning about the Cowardly Lion before and after his adventures with Dorothy.

Sounds like another fun read from the inventive Gregory Maguire, who shows great respect for L. Frank Baum's Oz classics and pays it forward...
