Review by Politically Correct:

Set in the mystical land of Oz, Wicked and Son of a Witch are a must read for anyone who wants a different perspective on the classic fairytale. The story follows the Wicked Witch of the West as she travels around Oz, and makes you wonder: is Elphaba really the 'wicked witch?' The book Wicked inspired a Broadway musical by the same name, and is now destined to be another Oz classic. Son of a Witch, the sequel, is set after the Witch melts, and follows the story of Liir, the mysterious child that followed Elphaba throughout her journeys. The story is very well written, and I would recommend it to anyone who loves fantasy. I'd also recommend Mirror, Mirror and The Ugly Stepsister by Gregory Maguire as well.
