If we're going to bicker issues of closeness to canon we should probably also throw in the fact that the Witch of the North apparently didn't exist, the whole green-West thing, and whatnot. I think it was more intended to be a prequel to the film. But they included the Dainty China Country and mentioned the Quadlings and Oscar's full name, so I'm not complaining. (Still prefer Return to Oz, love that movie)

Or the Nome King! Oooh, or that princess with a hundred heads--Langwidere, I believe? That'd be cool! And I'd dig a Chopfyte character, if only because Chopfyte is kinda creepy if you think to hard about him.

I have found a fellow Oz geek you don't know how happy I am.
