''Bloodstained Oz'' is a ''Wizard of Oz'' related novella by Christopher Golden and James A. Moore, and it was illustrated by Glenn Chadbourne. It was published as a limited edition hardcover by Earthling Publications in 2006. It comes with an introduction by Ray Garton. It was nominated for the Horror Writers Association's Bram Stoker Award for Best Long Fiction in 2006. The story falls outside of L. Frank Baum's original storyline for his ''Wonderful Wizard of Oz'' series and its official sequels. Being outside of the canonical restrictions, ''Bloodstained Oz'' makes the Land of Oz a nightmare for adults instead of a children's story. Both first editions of ''Bloodstained Oz'' were sold out very soon after publication, and there are no current plans to reprint it by Earthling Publications or any other publisher. Being an ''Oz'' related book and a horror novel have made it a collector's item. Copies have been sold on eBay for $300.00 or more. ==Plot== 1930s dust bowl Kansas natives and an alternate version of the Wonderful Land of Oz collide during a huge dust storm. The Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and the Cowardly Lion may or may not help them on this adventure because the other inhabitants of Oz include vampire flying monkeys, emerald eyed demonic creatures, and other horrors beyond imagination. Down home farm girl Gayle Franklin and her family, escaped convict Hank Burnside, and Roma gypsies Elisa and Stefan along with their infant son Jeremiah, all find themselves face to face with the unbelievable terrors from Oz. The creatures have taken over Oz and now they are threatening to take over Earth too. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bloodstained Oz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
