Crap. PURE CRAP! It was difficult to pick it up because the Wizard of Oz has been done so wonderfully and is a masterpiece in itself how could ANYONE add to it to make it any better, right? Well, I tried to keep an open mind when cracking it open and I am disgusted! The author puts a modern sick twisted story together to make it work. I have only read to the fourth chapter and couldn't stand it. One of the suggestions is that the witch was castrated at birth, REALLY? Would this really make someone so evil and wicked? The story idea was good, but really, really horrible and annoyingly sickly put together. Makes me think the author has some serious issues! This is TRASH!
