When L. Frank Baum introduced Dorothy and friends to the American public in 1900, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz became an instant, bestselling hit. Today the whimsical tale remains a cultural phenomenon that continues to spawn wildly popular books, movies, and musicals. Now, editors John Joseph Adams and Douglas Cohen have brought together some of the leading fantasy, science fiction, and young adult writers to create the ultimate anthology for Oz fan – and, really, any reader with an appetite for richly imagined worlds. In “The Boy Detective of Oz: An Otherland Story” by Tad Williams, Orlando the Boy Detective investigates a murder in the Oz simulation of the Otherland network. Some stories are dystopian…Some are dreamlike…All are undeniably Oz.
