I liked the puns (Queen Ann Soforth) and the alliteration in every chapter title ("Tik-Tok Tackles a Tough Task"), but, I'm afraid, little else.įor more book reviews, come visit my blog, Build Enough Bookshelves. ![]() More so than the others, this book seemed to be a rehash and thrown-together bit of a bunch of stories. Glinda was in the *south*, not the north.Ī little consistency! Is that too much to ask?! And your mental map of Oz is completely screwed up. If Ozma has the Nome King's Magic Belt, she doesn't need the Wizard to transport people anywhere - she can do it herself. Really? Don't you remember that Shaggy and Polychrome met each other and traveled together three books ago? Or that the Love Magnet doesn't need to be seen to work? And why on earth did you change the Nome King's name from Roquat to Ruggedo? Even my 9-year-old remembered that Ozma had told him his name after he drank from the Waters of Oblivion before she sent him back home through the tunnel. ![]()
