Another Non-Oz book I haven't mentioned yet, if I'm reading my past Preview Reviews right, is The Stardust Kid by J.M. DeMatteis and Mike Ploog. Ploog is known for his artwork, and has done at least one adaptation of Oz. The team of DeMatteis and Ploog also did the excellent but entirely too short-lived Abadazad, which was based on the Oz adventures. The Stardust Kid is another fantasy adventure which throws ordinary children into a fantasy world. This book is a five issue mini-series.

Previous Issues: - Stardust Kid #1 - Order Code: MAR05 1683 - $3.50
- Stardust Kid #2 - Order Code: MAY05 1576 - $3.50

I was rather impressed this month to see The Living House of Oz by Edward Einhorn, with illustrations by Eric Shanower, show up in Previews. If you are looking for a fun Oz read, check out this book. And, as Eric pointed out to me, you can also get it directly from the publisher.
- The Living House of Oz - Order Code: NOV05 3411 - $27.95
