That's Book 4: The Hand of Oberon down. It wasn't bad. Felt a bit unfocused.
I'll probably take a break and read something else now.

That's Ozma of Oz down. I think I'll take a break from Oz for a bit.

That's The Marvelous Land of Oz. I didn't love this, but it has some enjoyable bits.

That's The Wizard of Oz.
L. Frank Baum's cheeky introduction where he winks at you while saying, "there's no deeper meaning...it's all just pure entertainment."
Oh, Frank.

And that's Lair of the White Worm done.
No joke. One of the most blatantly and aggressively racist things I've ever read.
Sweet mother of crap, but it was bad.
Also, Stoker totally botches a few really cool ideas.

Working through The Garden of Evil aka Lair of the White Worm and this book is racist as hell. Any veils Stoker had up before are gone by this book. Yikes.

And that's the Jewel of Seven Stars down.
Gah.
I don't know about you, but I prefer reading books where stuff happens.
