Peter returns
to Oz for a third time, this
time with Captain
Samuel Salt and his pirates on the Nonestic Ocean (which
surrounds the landmass of Oz and its neighbor countries). Meanwhile, Old
Ruggedo, the Gnome King is back.[1]
He had been cursed with a Silence Stone at the end of The Gnome King of Oz, and decides to
answer an advertisement for king of the Land of Menankypoo, whose people
communicate with words that appear on their foreheads, and demand "a dumb king".
He soon becomes leader of a band of pirates and rebels, and attempts once again
to conquer Oz.
