The Oz Series

Though Dorothy Gale has told them many stories about her frequent visits to the Land of Oz, Aunt Em and Uncle Henry have always thought she was merely a dreamer. But when Dorothy learns that her aunt and uncle are in danger of losing their farm, she makes arrangements with Princess Ozma to bring her guardians to Oz, where they can all live together in safety. While the Wonderful Wizard takes them on a fabulous tour of their new home, however, jealous Nome King Roquat plots to conquer the land.

Ojo the Unlucky isn’t sure how he got his nickname, but he finds it fitting after a visit to Dr. Pipt the Crooked Magician. There, he learns about Dr. Pipt’s incredible Powder of Life, which has turned an old patchwork quilt into a living girl. But when Dr. Pipt’s Liquid of Petrification accidentally turns Ojo’s uncle into a statue, Ojo must seek out the magic ingredients that will bring Unc Nunkie back to life.

When Queen Ann of Oogaboo raises an army to take over Oz, Gilda the Good magically rearranges their path to send them into a fog. Meanwhile, the Shaggy Man has gone in search of his brother Tik-Tok, who’s been tossed into a well by the wicked Nome King. On his journey, the Shaggy Man encounters Betsy Bobbin of Oklahoma, the Rainbow’s daughter Polychrome, a royal rose named Princess Ozga—and Queen Ann herself, who is very angry at being lost.

With his talking goat, Bilbil, by his side, jolly King Rinkitink of Gilgad sails to the island of Pingaree, where he charms the royal family with merriment and song. But when the festive holiday is cut short by a surprise attack, only King Rinkitink, Bilbil, and young Prince Inga manage to escape capture.

One morning in the Emerald City, Dorothy Gale awakens to discover a series of baffling disappearances. Glinda the Good’s Great Book of Records has vanished, along with her magical implements. The Wizard of Oz discovers that his black bag of magic is gone as well. Most distressing of all, however, is the disappearance of Princess Ozma herself.

In this magical tale from the author of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, fans of Dorothy Gale’s adventure not only learn how the Tin Woodman came to be, but also follow him and his good friend the Scarecrow as he goes in search of his true love, a beautiful Munchkin girl named Nimmie Amee.

When the peace and prosperity of Oz is threatened as the Flatheads and the Skeezers—two obscure tribes who inhabit a far corner of the realm—declare war on each other, Dorothy Gale and Princess Ozma embark on a desperate journey to put an end to the conflict. But with both sides determined to fight, Dorothy and the princess soon find themselves held captive on the Skeezers’ island, which is covered in glass and submerged at the bottom of a lake.

In a remote corner of Munchkin Country lies Lake Orizon, home to the Ozure Isles. The five islands were once a peaceful place, but fire-breathing Quiberon, sent by the dreaded witch Mombi, has changed that. For twenty years, the beast has terrorized the islands. Now it’s threatening to wipe them out for good.

The heroic Prince Philador embarks on a quest to get help from the Good Witch of the North to defeat Quiberon. Meanwhile, the royal soothsayer has a foolish plan of his own.
