Win a Leatherbound Copy of Wicked/Son of a Witch and the Wicked Cast Recording

This contest is now closed. Please check back for more great giveaways!

Phew. I’m a bit behind, but I think it’s worth it! This is a lovely gift for fans of Gregory Maguire and of the musical, Wicked.

I’ve got a Barnes & Noble leatherbound edition of Wicked and Son of a Witch by Gregory Maguire. This book is beautiful with gold and green embossed styling on the front and a green ribbon bookmark.

To go with it, I’ve got a 5th Anniversary Special Edition 2 CD copy of the Wicked Broadway Soundtrack. In addition to the cast recording, the second CD has recordings from several other casts around the world, as well as newer versions of “For Good,” “I’m Not That Girl,” “Making Good,” and “Defying Gravity.” It’s also got a collector’s booklet with photos. Some fan is going to be in heaven…
