It's an "all right" read, IMO. I definitely preferred Wicked and especially Son of A Witch.
I doubt I'll try Out of Oz. How about you?

I am currently reading 'Guns of The South' by Harry Turtledove.

It's an "alternate history" novel about a group of South African Boer mercenaries who travel back in time to the American Civil War to arm the Confederacy with AK-47 assault rifles. The South of course wins the war. Johnny Reb has just stormed the White House and forced "Honest Abe" to sign armistice papers.

Just finished "Swan Peak" by James Lee Burke. Fantastic book by a fantastic author. He was recommended to me a few monyhs ago and I have devoured his books ever since. His prose is superb and the mystery to be solved id riveting. Can't recommend highly enough

I'm going to read Out of Oz. I like Gregory Maguire. I enjoyed A Lion Among Men the second time around. I didn't get really into it the first time. I LOVED Wicked and Son of a Witch.

hi,i've finished MISERY and am reading MOBY DICK it's an american novel..

This is my second of the series, and I've picked up a few more from various second-hand bookstores.
Very enjoyable!
