Praise for WICKED

'Gregory Maguire's WICKED falls into a fascinating sub-genre of novels that revisit well-known stories as much in the spirit of criticism as homage. Maguire...makes sense of Baum's whims, creating a credible Oz for grown-ups, with religion, politics, racial tensions, an economy, mythology, humour and sex... As moving and tragic as it is refreshing and scurrilous... Outstanding' Independent

'This is a triumph. In startling prose that suggest Cormac McCarthy crossed with a witty Charles Frazier.the comedy never overpowers the drama, nor the sophistication' Daily Telegraph
