Rhapsody Series Book Review

Rhapsody Series, by Elizabeth Hayden

This series of books is about a half human, half-Lirin woman named Rhapsody who goes on en epic journey with her two new friends, Achmed and Grunthor. They travel along a magical tree root and come up on the other side of the world to find that their home island, Serendair, was destroyed by an asteroid that had fallen centuries earlier and suddenly rose from the sea to consume the island. Achmed becomes King of a race of primitive people known as the Bolg, and they soon get on the nerves of all the humans in the new world. They go on lots of adventures, fight enemies that they had on the old island, and encounter new enemies.

I found that the entire series was rather wordy with whole walls of text on information and subjects that I didn't really want to know. I found myself skipping pages so I woudln't get a headache. Rhapsody was spasmadic and had a somewhat disturbing love for children and adopting them. However, the plot was interesting--moslty-- and I just wanted to know what happened so I kept reading the books.

"Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West" by Gregory Maguire

This is a whole new take on "The Wizard of Oz". It is from the point of view of the Wicked Witch, who isn't actually wicked. She is working for Animal rights. Animals are different from animals because Animals have soles. The Wizard is actually the wicked one. He has revoked Animal rights.
The story starts not long before Elphaba (The Wicked Witch of the West) was born and continues on through the events in her life. She goes to school in Shiz and is room mates with Galinda (The Good Witch of the North). They aren't enemies, infact they become "sisters" and try to make things right in OZ.
It took awhile to read this book, mostly because it just didn't captivate me.
Three stars ***
