'aS 'IDnar pIn'a' Dun: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
Description:
This Wizard isn't just Wonderful, he's Glorious!
After more than a century, L. Frank Baum's classic children's novel of young Dorothy's adventures in the magical land of Oz can now be enjoyed in tlhIngan Hol, the warriors' tongue used throughout the Klingon empire. In these pages you'll meet not only Dorothy (DortIy) and her animal companion Toto (toDo), but also such beloved characters as the scarecrow (wIjwI' ngeb), the tin man (jey' loD), the cowardly lion (vIghro''a' yoHHa'), and of course Oz ('aS) the wonderful wizard himself.
Not since the Klingon translation of Sunzi's Art Of War has the Emperor himself commissioned such an instructive work to provide insight into the Terran mind. Even mighty Kahless himself would be puzzled by the actions of good and wicked witches, fields of deadly poppies, winged monkeys, and the metaphorical significance of a bucket of water capable of so thoroughly defeating a most powerful enemy. It is surely only a matter of time before the great deeds of this work are the stuff of great songs, and the accomplishments of this warrior from the distant land of Omaha are heard in every bar from Qo'noS to the distant edge of the Alpha Quadrant, inspiring young and old alike.
To paraphrase the oft heard proverb from Empire Union Day, "May the spirit of Oz live within you (SoHDaq 'aS qa' yInjaj).
