Got a bunch, maybe all, Baum’s Oz books on Kindle in one bundle for like 99 cents.
Finished the first one.
I wish I’d read it when I was 8 years old. I would have become a better and more interesting man. But I’m very glad to have read it now in my 30s, anyway, b/c it’s funny and sometimes startling. On the same page it can be charming and cute, and also horrifying and mysterious. It’s damn good work, that The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. The movie version does it only a half justice.
Looking forward to the others in the set.
It’s steampunky.
