Jim & Zeb in Oz

Winner, the International Wizard of Oz Club's Otto Award for Short Fiction - Summer 2000.

 

Dorothy Gale's cousin Zeb and his cab-horse Jim are off on another adventure in the land of Oz, having previously visited it in Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz, by L. Frank Baum. This time, an evil witch has magically transported them into Oz so that she might use them to take over as ruler. Along the way, Zeb and Jim meet up with Jack Pumpkinhead and Glinda the Good Witch, and they come upon a tiny baby princess who holds the key to the witch's undoing.
