A review by ajsquilla
Out of Oz by Gregory Maguire
3.0
My feelings are mixed for the last of this quadrilogy. I read the first 3 books quickly and fervently. I struggled through many parts of this one and it took me months to finish. It is considerably longer, suffers from terrible pacing issues and unnecessary asides to bring back every single side character from the 3 previous books.
However, once I reached the end I was fairly satisfied with how the story concluded. I looked back fondly and remembered how much fun I had with this series as a whole. I felt like I spent a lifetime with the characters (you actually do as the book spans 3 generations), and it was sad to say goodbye as this epic tale concluded.
