4.5 stars out of 5It was a good read, but the plot was predictable. The artwork was lovely to see. Very enjoyable.I thought this was an interesting end to the series, though it did feel a little abrupt. It is sad that in the end, the family lost the farm, but it really did give meaning to "home is where your heart is": so long as her family was with her, Dorotjy was fine.

Aunt Em and Uncle Henry are about to lose the farm. They are disheartened and not looking forward to a future of hard work for themselves and Dorothy, but Dorothy comes up with a perfect solution. She asks Ozma to move them all to Oz. As her aunt and uncle struggle to deal with their culture shock (and shock that Dorothy's stories were all true), Ozma and Dorothy decide that a tour of Oz might help them out. So Dorothy, Toto, Belina, the Wizard, the Shaggy Man, and the Wooden Horse take Aunt Em

I would like to say "What a great end to a wonderful run by Shanower and Skottie Young and their graphic novels of the beloved Oz books" but the best I can say is - This was a wonderful series and the two of them did their best with some spotty source material by Baum. I admit I never read the novels this series was based on and after seeing these graphic novels I am not too upset about that. It was only the outstanding art by Skottie that made some of these paper thin plots bearable. Out of all
The Nome King plans to invade the land of Oz and not only take back his magic belt, but plunder the entire kingdom and enslave its people. He summons a huge army of new & horrible creatures who are eager to visit pain upon the happy people of Oz. Meanwhile, Uncle Henry & Auntie Em are going to lose the farm due to their inability to pay the mortgage. Dorothy offers for them all to simply go and live in the Emerald City, where she has been named a princess by Queen Ozma. They are
