Deal Details
Various Retailers have The Wicked Years Complete Collection 4-Book Bundle: Wicked, Son of a Witch, A Lion Among Men, and Out of Oz by Gregory Maguire (eBooks) on sale for $3.99.

Thanks to Deal Hunter phoinix for sharing this deal.

Available From:About these Books:
  • Years before Dorothy and her dog crash-land, another little girl makes her presence known in Oz. This girl, Elphaba, is born with emerald-green skin—no easy burden in a land as mean and poor as Oz, where superstition and magic are not strong enough to explain or overcome the natural disasters of flood and famine. Still, Elphaba is smart, and by the time she enters Shiz University, she becomes a member of a charmed circle of Oz's most promising young citizens.
  • But Elphaba's Oz is no utopia. The Wizard's secret police are everywhere. Animals—those creatures with voices, souls, and minds—are threatened with exile. Young Elphaba, green and wild and misunderstood, is determined to protect the Animals—even if it means combating the mysterious Wizard, even if it means risking her single chance at romance. Ever wiser in guilt and sorrow, she can find herself grateful when the world declares her a witch. And she can even make herself glad for that young girl from Kansas.

Four more Wicked books have come out since these. Three about Elphaba's granddaughter, and one that is a prequel about Elphaba as a child.

Although the book is the basis for the musical, it is not kid friendly. Drug use, violence, and mature themes abound. If you have read the book, it's more WTF... how did someone read this & think it would make an awesome musical.

The book is also, frankly, not that great. The musical did what most musicals do, which is take the base story and theme and run with it. Throwing most of this book away was smart.
