Dorothy Gale returns to the Land of Oz just as the Nome King prepares a vast underground invasion of the Emerald City. When Uncle Henry and Aunt Em face financial ruin in Kansas, Dorothy asks Princess Ozma to bring the entire family permanently to Oz. Their arrival begins a grand tour of the magical country, introducing them to some of its strangest peoples, creatures, and kingdoms.
While Dorothy, Toto, Aunt Em, and Uncle Henry explore Oz, the vengeful Nome King Roquat secretly gathers an army of Whimsies, Growleywogs, and Phanfasms. His forces plan to tunnel beneath the Deadly Desert, conquer the Emerald City, and recover the magical belt Dorothy once took from him. With Ozma unwilling to answer violence with violence, the citizens of Oz must find a clever and peaceful way to protect their home.
The sixth novel in L. Frank Baum's celebrated Oz series, The Emerald City of Oz combines adventure, humor, fantasy, and a memorable conflict between destructive ambition and imaginative cooperation. This complete illustrated edition includes John R. Neill's original artwork, preserving the visual character and extraordinary detail of the classic publication.
