Not my favorite of the Oz books, but still an imaginative adventure. This felt a little more disjointed than the previous works and really didn't seem like it had a specific goal in sight. I still enjoyed Baum's creative characters and interactions, I just wasn't able to connect to this one as easily and somewhat pushed myself to make it to the end. It won't stop me from completing the series, but felt more like an extraneous work meant to simply generate more money and maybe somewhat appease fervent fans than a work of artistic effort.
