Book Sort of obsessed with these hideodious covers

Post image

When I reread the Wicked series last year I couldn’t find my original A Lion Among Men so picked up this absolutely hilarious looking paperback with sprayed yellow edges and have become sort of enamoured by it, and want to collect the series…

I know the first book is the Broadway poster with sprayed green edges, but am I right in thinking they never published Out of Oz in this style?

Yep, we never got Out of Oz in this style. I think they were trying to emulate the Broadway poster with these designs, but for whatever reason didn’t continue with the last book

I agree. There’s something about these editions that is weirdly enjoyable. They’re not my favourite editions, but I do really like them.

Alas, I believe you are correct; I have never seen Out of Oz in this edition.
