Rinkitink in Oz

Autor L. Frank Baum
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 mai 2010
Rinkitink in Oz is the tenth book in the Land of Oz series written by L. Frank Baum. Published on June 20, 1916, it is significant that no one from Oz appears in the book until its climax; this is due to Baum having originally written most of the book as an original fantasy novel over ten years earlier. Most of the action takes place on three islands - Pingaree, Regos, and Coregos - and within the Nome King's caverns. Since the original ruler of the nomes, Roquat - who later re-named himself Ruggedo, was deposed in 1914's Tik-Tok of Oz, Baum had to cleverly rework the tale to accommodate his selfish but well-intentioned replacement, Kaliko.The book was dedicated to the author's newborn grandson Robert Alison Baum, the first child of the author's second son Robert Stanton Baum.

Notă biografică

Lyman Frank Baum (1856 - 1919), better known by his pen name L. Frank Baum, was an American author chiefly known for his children's books, particularly The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. He wrote thirteen novel sequels, nine other fantasy novels, and a host of other works (55 novels in total, plus four "lost works", 83 short stories, over 200 poems, an unknown number of scripts and many miscellaneous writings). His works anticipated such century-later commonplaces as television, augmented reality, laptop computers (The Master Key), wireless telephones (Tik-Tok of Oz), women in high risk, action-heavy occupations (Mary Louise in the Country), and the ubiquity of advertising on clothing (Aunt Jane's Nieces at Work).

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

Rinkitink in Oz (1916) is the tenth novel in L. Frank Baum's beloved Land of Oz series. Although it features a few of Baum's regular characters, the story mostly takes place outside of Oz, expanding upon an already enormous fictional universe.

King Rinkitink and his talking goat Bilbil are on holiday in the island kingdom of Pingaree when invaders from Regos and Coregos attack, kidnapping the local king and queen. He agrees to aid the young Prince Inga in his quest to rescue his parents and restore the power of Pingaree. With the help of three magic pearls, Prince Inga and Rinktink defeat King Gos of Regos, but lose the pearls in the process. With bravery and willpower alone, the companions journey to the island of Coregos to face the evil Queen Cor. Although they manage to recover the magic pearls, as well as to free the people of Pingaree, Prince Inga's parents are taken to the underworld kingdom of the Nomes and sold into captivity. Faced with this most recent setback, Rinkitink, Bilbil, and Inga will need the help of Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz if they have any hope of saving Pingaree. Frank L. Baum's Rinkitink in Oz is a larger than life story of what a brave youth will do for love of family and country.

From the mind of master fantasist L. Frank Baum, Rinkitink in Oz is a beautiful addition to an epic series that has captured hearts and minds for over a century. Long overshadowed by the film, Baum's series is required reading for children, adults, and anyone who refuses to let life lose its flavor of fantasy.

With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of L. Frank Baum's Rinkitink in Oz is a classic of children's literature reimagined for modern readers.
