Oz Reimagined is a 2013 anthology that collects fifteen stories set in reimagined versions of L. Frank Baum’s Land of Oz. Edited by John Joseph Adams and Douglas Cohen, the collection invites different authors to take the familiar characters and setting in new directions. The stories range from dark reinterpretations to playful riffs on the source material.
The fifteen entries cover a lot of ground. The Cobbler of Oz, Dead Blue, and One Flew Over the Rainbow suggest the variety of approaches, from fairy tale retelling to genre mashup. Each story stands on its own while drawing on the shared Oz mythology that readers will recognize.
For fans of Oz or anthologies that play with well-known settings, this collection offers a concentrated dose of creative reinterpretation. The range of tones and genres means that different stories will appeal to different readers, but the unifying thread of Baum’s world holds it all together.
