While this wasn't my favorite anthology, I could tell that each author had a clear vision for what they wanted to write and how they wanted to relate their stories to The Wizard of Oz. In my opinion, the standouts in Beyond Oz came from authors Erin Lee, Rena Marin, and Lorah Jaiyn.
Beyond Oz features some very talented authors. All the stories were great and I look forward to reading more from these writers. I definitely recommend it!
There were minor editing problems throughout the entire book but easy to overlook overall. Each story was a different version of OZ that we can dive into. Good book and several of the stories great lessons learned. The last story really wasn't OZ related in my opinion but still an emotional, wonderful story!
I loved this Anthology with the different takes on an American classic. Each Author took their spin of Wizard of Oz and made it their own. The characters were flawless. Highly recommend!
