Description

The Giant Horse of Oz

In which the Scarecrow, tiny Trot, from California, and Benny (a living statue from Boston) encounter High Boy, whose telescopic legs and airy personality make him in every way the Giant Horse of Oz!  High Bot himself is on an expedition with Herby the Medicine Man and little Prince Philador of the spectacular Ozure Isles, whose home has been threatened with utter destruction by a terrifying monster sea serpent.

They all come together in a thrilling episode of Ozian history—which includes the discovery of the enchanted past of the wonderful Good Witch of the North, the very first person Dorothy met when she arrived from Kansas many years before.

We have recently acquired a supply of the first nine Ruth Plumly Thompson Oz books as issued by Del Rey in the mid-1980s. These “like new” copies are forty years old and look like they were printed yesterday! Each are first printings of the Del Rey paperbacks featuring the stunning new cover paintings by Michael Herring. Del Rey’s later printings were produced via “Print on Demand” with badly warped and stretched cover art. Don’t miss this chance to collect these forty-year-old original paperback editions – while supplies last!
