Title: Not So Hot
Review: As someone who read all of the original Oz books as a kid, I thought this new side of the story would be good. I was wrong. Maguire did not do his research into the land of Oz. He repeatedly confuses locations and facts about characters and environments. The blatent mistreatment of L. Frank Baum's creations is not my only fault with this book. The writing is somewhat shallow, and slightly unfocused. Also, he doesn't seem to be focused so much on his characters as his message, making the characters seem slightly two-dimensional. One thing this book has going for it...it wasn't nearly as bad as it's sequel.
