Has anyone read the Book...

Wicked by Gregory MacGuirre?! I just finished it today! Wow!
I did not think the "Wicked Witch of the West" was such an animal lover!? I'll never watch that movie the same again! Awesome! Just Awesome!

I haven't read it but I have one of MacGuirre's other books that I've been meaning to read for some time (the one about scrooge). I might skip it for a while longer and go straight for Wicked instead.

Thanks for the recommendation.

Cass.

I heard Wicked was the best he put out. I too want to read Lost. I am addicted to his books now! LOL

What is it about?

Glitzie · 01-26-2007, 08:15 AM

The book is about the life of the Wicked Witch of the West from the Wizard of OZ. My 13 yr. old daughter said a friend of hers was reading it also. I really don't reccomend this book for 13 year olds.
The book tells about how she grew up & all the good things she tried to do, but backfired & how she became a witch. There's some political stuff in there. It tells how she became the friend of Glinda & about her sister, the wicked witch of the East. How the Tinman, Cowardly lion & Scarecrow came to be.

I liked it, thought it was good.

I am almost finished with the 2nd book. Son of a Witch. It's good, but way to much detail.

That sounds like such an interesting book! I'll have to keep it in mind when I go to the bookshop next tme. I have an ever-growing list of books I want to read, it's hard getting through them all!
