I loved this book. Oz books were one of my childhood favorites, and this book taught me about role playing games while giving me a happy taste of nostalgia. Even though I'm not experienced in these kind of games, I think it's just fantastic the way this particular game inspires imagination and cooperation in such an entertaining way. There really is an encyclopedic amount of information pulled from many Oz novels, but it is so well organized that it comes out quick paced and easy to read. It's evidence of a lot of thought that these fantasy stories, which are so fanciful, can be given a robust kind of structure. It's a genuinely beautiful idea that this structure can be used as a base for players to create even more fantasy stories of their own. Wonderful!!!
