Query: Wicked is Torture For Its Readers

This is an awful book.It starts out interestingly enough, explaining the origin of the Wicked Wich, green skin and all, but then gets mired in a ridiculous and unbelievable plot about religion versus naturalism and the rights of talking animals. In the process, Maguire goes off on pointless tangents about bestiality, class consciousness and consipracy theorists.When you finish it, you'll be singing "Ding, dong, the book is done!" It's an overly long exercise in nonsense.
