N2  - When Milo's uncle and Tilly's grandfather are poisoned by a mysterious copy of The Wizard of Oz and fall into a deep sleep, Milo and Tilly travel to the Emerald City to find out who is behind the poisoning; Milo lives on board the Sesquipedalian, or Quip - a magical train that uses the power of imagination to travel through both Story and the real world. The train is owned by Milos uncle, Horatio, and Milo has witnessed many of his uncles dodgy dealings as a book smuggler trading in rare books. When Horatio takes on a dangerous new job, he needs the help of Tilly Pages. And Tilly owes Horatio a favour.
