Lyman Frank Baum penned fourteen novels in his famous Oz chronology. The thirteenth, The Magic of Oz, was published in 1919 and introduced the Munchkin boy Kiki Aru and the magical word "Pyrzqxgl," with which he and former Nome King Ruggedo attempt to conquer Oz. This volume of Original Oz Stories is formatted not only for ease of reading, but to emulate the textual structure of that original publication.
