Query: Resolves nothing from Wicked

I was disappointed. This book lacks the passion of Wicked, and it doesn't really continue the story from the original book. It tells a largely unrelated tale about Liir, who is fairly insignificant in Wicked. It isn't really even the story of Liir but more like a sequence of events that he drifts through. So beyond being disappointed that nothing from Wicked is resolved in this book, I didn't find the story engaging. Liir is never passionate about anything he does, which leaves the reader wondering, who cares? Fans of the original book will want to read it anyway. Others shouldn't bother -- but do read the original. And see the musical. Both are outstanding.
