Glinda of Oz is the fourteenth and final book in L. Frank Baum’s original Oz series, published by Reilly & Lee in 1920, illustrated by John R. Neill. The novel features two journeys, that of Princess Ozma and Dorothy Gale, who set out to avert a war between the Flatheads and the Skeezers, and by Glinda the Good and friends, who must rescue Ozma and Dorothy. As is typical in many of the Oz books, the adventurers encounter a great variety of magical creatures, both benign and dangerous. Among others, in Glinda of Oz, the reader meets gigantic purple spiders and lovely Mist Maidens, as well as the strange and frightening Flatheads, who wear their brains in canisters in their pockets.
