Pet peeve as a witch: A "warlock" is not the same as a witch or wizard, it means "oath-breaker."

I was impressed at the deep knowledge of the author, they used some things from the movies but there were a lot of references to the other Oz books. Disappointing ending, was hoping for some closure, but it's intended as a series opener.

I found the beginning and ending bits of the book to be enjoyable. However, there was a whole middle section that slogged on and, for me didn't have enough action as I had hoped. We spent the entire time in Amy's head, and while it works sometimes, I found it to be severely annoying and distracting from the story (first person narrative woes).

Oh my! I can't believe I didn't pick this up sooner! Although in HS this dark of a book would not sit well. I was hooked by Paige's writing style and wish I could pick up book two this minute!
