| Publisher Description: The evil Nome King is determined to recover the Magic Belt from Ozma, ruler of Oz. He plans to tunnel under the Deadly Desert that surrounds Oz, to emerge in the Emerald City and lay waste to it and the land around it. Meanwhile, Dorothy has moved to Oz with her Uncle Henry and Auntie Em after life got hard in Kansas. They tour the land, having entertaining adventures, and return to the Emerald City just as the armies of the Nome King are beginning their final assault. |
Contributor Bio(s): Baum, L. Frank: - "Lyman Frank Baum (1856 - 1919), better known by his pen name L. Frank Baum, was an American author chiefly known for his children's books, particularly The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. He wrote thirteen novel sequels, nine other fantasy novels and a host of other works (55 novels in total, plus four "lost works," 83 short stories, over 200 poems, an unknown number of scripts and many miscellaneous writings) and made numerous attempts to bring his works to the stage and screen. His works anticipated such century-later commonplaces as television, augmented reality, laptop computers (The Master Key), wireless telephones (Tik-Tok of Oz), women in high risk, action-heavy occupations (Mary Louise in the Country), and the ubiquity of advertising on clothing (Aunt Jane's Nieces at Work)." |
