5.0 out of 5 stars The wooing of Ozma is an enjoyable read-, Dec 30 2002
This review is from: The Wooing of Ozma: Book One in the Umbrella Man in Oz Trilogy (Paperback)
It reminded me a great deal of the L. Frank Baum series that I enjoyed so much as a child, and still do. The characters in this book however, are somewhat aged and a bit more mature then their childish version.

It was nice to see a hint of the adult Dorothy and the adult Ozma. Though Dorothy maintained her child appearance, a hundred years of life was bound to give her a more adult outlook on things.

Ozma chose to allow herself to age, just a touch. Now she is the age of a girl first looking for love, though she doesn't admit it even to herself. That is, until the hero comes along...

A hint of romance, and a lot of adventure makes this an excellent read. I look forward to more of the Umbrella Man trilogy!

4.0 out of 5 stars I'm the author of this so I shouldn't do this but...., Nov 12 2002
This review is from: The Wooing of Ozma: Book One in the Umbrella Man in Oz Trilogy (Paperback)
Well basically I had a great deal of fun writing this book which I believe will probably be the defining work of my career. It's funny, it's got action, it's got romance, all the good stuff I took inspiration from my favorite works (Oz, Last Unicorn, Princess Bride, etc) for. The work sadly lacks illustrations I originally wanted to put in as well as a removed dedication. However I think the story is still worth the money times ten. I hope you enjoy
