Meet Rinkitink--a kindhearted king who's as fat and jolly as old Saint Nick himself! When the jovial monarch sails for a visit to the island kingdom of Pingaree, he and his talking goat, Bilbil, are welcomed with open arms. Before long, Rinkitink's lighthearted ways and merry songs endear him to the king and queen of Pingaree, as well as to their son, Prince Inga.
But when the peaceful isle is invaded by fierce warriors, everyone from the rulers to the smallest child is taken off in chains. Only Prince Inga, Rinkitink, and Bilbil escape the conquerors. And so the three friends set out--aided by the magical Pearls of Pingaree--to rescue the prince's people.
Their perilous quest takes them across the vast Nonestic Ocean to the terrible islands of Regos and Coregos to the dark underground domains of the Nome King. Victories are followed by setbacks, which are in turn followed by strokes of good fortune. Just when it seems our friends have met their match in the clever Nome King, Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz arrive to lend a hand.
First published in 1916, this handsome new edition of a much-loved classic features all twelve of John R. Neill's original color plates as well as his nearly one hundred black-and-white drawings.
Thrilling tale of adventure from a master storyteller, Rinkitink in Oz is sure to enjoyed by Oz fans far and wide and by all who delight in tales of enchantment and adventure.
When the king and queen are kidnapped and their country enslaved, it's up to the handsome young prince and his friends to save the day. But to defeat such foes as the Chuggenmugger-a beast so ferocious it devours dragons-even the prince must receivehelp from Dorothy, the Wizard, and their Oz companions. With all twelve of the original full-color plates, this handsome new edition of a beloved classic is sure to be enjoyed by all.

Marcus review of Rinkitink in Oz, by L. Frank Baum,
By
レビュー対象商品: オズのリンキティンク (ハヤカワ文庫NV) (文庫)
Hello! I love the Oz books, and this one is no exception! L. Frank Baum originally wrote this book as NOT an Oz book, but he turned it into one because his publisher (Reilly & Lee) wanted another story about Oz, and he had most of this book written already. So, at the end of the story, Dorothy and the Wizard come into the story, but I will not reveal the secret of how they help! I love Sonoko Arai's wonderful artwork. She brings a breath of fresh air and new life to the old stories, and it is like discovering the world of Oz all over again for the first time!

オズワールド内のとある国の話,

レビュー対象商品: オズのリンキティンク (ハヤカワ文庫NV) (文庫)
おなじみのオズの国ではなく、オズワールドのなかにあるピンガリー王国の話です。めずらしく少年が主人公です。 一瞬のうちに滅ぼされたピンガリーの国のインガ王子が、陽気なきのいいリキティンク王とともに奴隷となった国民を助け出しに行く話。 リキティンク王はいつもおおらかでこちらまでほっとします。心のありかたが素敵です。 ノーム王やドロシーもちょこっとでてきます。 海にかこまれたピンガリー王国を思うと、リキティンク王でなくとも出かけたくなるのではないでしょうか。
