	Amazon.co.uk: Wicked: Books: Gregory Maguire (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The Wicked Witch is a wonderfully captivating tale, with richly drawn characters and a terribly involving plot.
		Wicked is the sugary sweet tale of the Wizard of Oz told from the perspective of the Wicked Witch of the West.
		By the end of the book we are unsurprised by her bitterness, and her untimely demise at the hands of Dorothy is a moment of sadness rather than the joyous victory of ‘good over evil’.

	Nextbook: Publishing Program
		Inspired by the enormous hunger for books on Jewish subjects written in a lively, intelligent, and popular manner, Jewish Encounters brings together writers of the first rank with people and ideas and events from the Jewish past.
		The series, under the general editorship of Jonathan Rosen, is a collaboration between Nextbook, devoted to the promotion of Jewish literature, culture, and ideas, and Schocken, with its storied backlist of Jewish classics.
		Idiosyncratic and ambitious, these books will explore ideas and themes that have been integral to Jewish life and culture through the ages, and that in many cases lie at the heart of not only American society but Western civilization itself.

		The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (Chronicles of Narnia Series, Book 2)
		The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis, the first book published in the Chronicles of Narnia series (although number two of the series in chronological order), is one of the best children's books of the 20th century.
		The wicked witch is ultimately defeated and the four children become kings and queens of Narnia.

	A Series of Unfortunate Events - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Series of Unfortunate Events is a children's book series, written by Daniel Handler under the pseudonym of Lemony Snicket, and illustrated by Brett Helquist.
		The books also have strong themes of moral relativism, with the Baudelaires becoming more confused during the course of the series about the difference between right and wrong, feeling they have done many wicked things themselves, and struggling with the question of whether the intentions behind an action justify it.
		The books seem to be set in an alternate version of earth with stylistic similarities to both the 19th century and the 1930s, though with contemporary, seemingly anachronistic and scientific knowledge.

	Wicked (book series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gregory Maguire is the author of the Wicked Cycle, a series of novels based on the Oz Chronicles by L.
		Frank Baum, that focus on the Wicked Witch of the West (Elphaba Thropp) and her family.
		The first, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, was published in 1995 and adapted into the current hit Broadway musical Wicked in 2003.

	Ex Libris Book Reviews: Wicked - Gregory Maguire
		The Wicked Witch wasn't born a witch, nor wicked.
		And the parts of the book where things are actually relatively happy for Elphaba are very poignant in their contrast to the rest of the book.
		A number of people have said that they felt this book was superior to the original book and film because it was more 'real.' This, to me, seems unfair because of the intent of the original material that Maguire is using as a premise.

		In Maguire's Oz, Elphaba, better known as the Wicked Witch of the West, is not wicked; nor is she a formally schooled witch.
		I was looking forward, apparently to come at the end of the book, of the witch coming down to Munchkinland when her sister died, confronting Dorothy in the forest, how she came to know Glinda (the northern witch), etc., overall getting a coherent backdrop to the movie.
		The book is purported to be the prequel to The Wizard of Oz, a la Star War Episodes 1-3, to give us the inside story about the land of Oz and its denizens, especially the Wicked Witch, aka Elphaba.

	O'Reilly -- Safari Books Online - 1593270615 - Wicked Cool Java
		While this book is not a typical tutorial or reference, it does give the reader a brief glimpse into a wide variety of Java topics.
		There are books for learning a technology (Head First), books that are references for the technology (Nutshell), books that list problems and their solutions using that technology (Hacks, Cookbooks), and books that are for just exploring (Developer's Notebooks).
		The Wicked Cool series (actually associated with O'Reilly-owned No Starch Press) seems to be for people who know the core technology, and are looking to explore more of it (but not the standard stuff you would find elsewhere) without necessarily trying to solve specific application problems.

	Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		When Dorothy triumphed over the Wicked Witch of the West in L. Frank Baum's classic tale, we heard only her side of the story.
		Wicked is about a land where animals talk and strive to be treated like first-class citizens, Munchkinlanders seek the comfort of middle-class stability and the Tin Man becomes a victim of domestic violence.
		And then there is the little green-skinned girl named Elphaba, who will grow up to be the infamous Wicked Witch of the West, a smart, prickly and misunderstood creature who challenges all our preconceived notions about the nature of good and evil.

	Wicked -- book review
		Wicked's flavor is the gothic freakishness of Carson McCullers and Flannery O'Connor blended with liberal amounts of dark humor and socio-political satire a la Kurt Vonnegut and Tom Robbins, seasoned with honesty, sympathy and earnestness.
		It is the heretofore untold story of the Wicked Witch of the West.
		I made this book my in-store staff recommendation twice when I was a bookseller, in hardcover and paperback, and my evident love for Wicked caused nearly half our store staff to read it for themselves.

	His Wicked Ways by Samantha James (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Cameron of the Clan MacKay and Meredith of the Clan Munro are avowed enemies--the longstanding feud between their clans has been filled with treachery and deceit.
		One story I found intriguing was this one: as a means of ending bad blood between two warring clans, there was a woman forced to marry the man who had murdered her father.
		The words slid past her ear, cold as a loch in the midst of a wintry freeze.

		They conduct themselves in a completely inappropriate manner — enjoying risqué amusements in secret theatres: running about disguised in the seediest parts of the city — and then they call you vile names for coming to their rescue.
		Amidst the pageantry, rampant desire, and very real dangers of Queen Victoria's London, a bevy of lovers is about to stumble into a spectacle of sin and scandal, where appearances are deceiving and anything can happen when desire is pulling all the strings.
		And when Igrainia discovers the true heart of the fearsome knight, her life--and loyalties--will never be the same...

	Mary Stewart, The Wicked Day (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The in-your-face simplicity and promise of the title drew me, and I devoured the book in one all-night sitting, blissfully ignorant of the fact that this was but the final volume in a four-book series.
		Completely self-contained, The Wicked Day traces the life of Mordred, the bastard son of King Arthur, as he grows up and moves ever closer to fulfilling Merlin's prophecy that he should be Arthur's downfall.
		Stewart, unlike those who have trodden these paths before, brings the rich, knowledgeable eye of a historian to the tale, and the result has an authentic air about it, so much so that if this isn't the way things actually happened, then by golly, it's the way they should have.

		I know every book starts in an author's heart and heaven knows I tried to look at WICKED UNDER THE COVERS as a piece of fiction.
