This was the June/July read-along book for the TURTLE RECALL Discworld reading challenge hosted by A Dance With Books. I loved it! It's definitely one of my favorites. There was a good mystery to it.

ADULT FICTION
THE WICKED YEARS SERIES
FANTASY
WIZARD OF OZ RETELLING
Published 2011- Own Hardcover
He finished up The Wicked Years series with this book. He said the first book, Wicked, and this final book were tied for his favorite. His least favorite was Son of a Witch, which was my favorite; and this one was my least favorite of the four, but I still loved it.
I found out last week that Maguire is writing a spin-off trilogy about the main character in Out of Oz. Baz said this character was his favorite, so I guess we'll both be reading it!

He's almost finished and unless the ending tanks the story, this is his favorite of the four we have read. I get to choose next year's book and my high school Physics lab partner, whom I am friends with on Facebook, ha ha, suggested his favorite... Galapagos.
