Industry Reviews
"I fell quickly and totally under the spell of this remarkable, wry, and fully realized story....Elphaba--the Wicked Witch of the West--is as scary as ever, but this time in a different way; She's undeniably human. She's us."
Wally Lamb
"A glorious frolic, a feast of language, a study of good and evil, and a massive history of the fabulous land of Oz."
Jane Langton
"Funny and serious, pulsing with imaginative energy and encompassing political thriller and moral reflection, this is truly a fabulous novel."
Press Materials - Jill P. Walsh
"Starting with the 'Wizard of Oz' material, Gregory Maguire has added greater depths and different facets, creating something altogether different and unique. It's a magnificent work, a genuine tour de force."
Press Materials - Lloyd Alexander
"Would that all books with this much innate consumer appeal were also this good. And vice versa."
Los Angeles Times Book Review - Robert Rodi (10/29/1996)
"[The heroine's] journey...is a captivating, funny, and perceptive look at destiny, personal responsibility, and the not-always-clashing beliefs of faith and magic."
Kirkus Reviews (08/15/1996)
