If these stories were used more in the children’s series now it would be amazing

It was a good enough read though the narrator takes a bit getting used to. There is also an error in the telling of the stories as Ozma of Oz is told after Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz so you'll need to skip forward and then back again. There are a few misreads which weren't edited out but that didn't really bother me as it added to the authenticity.

Overall when you consider you got 22 stories and about 90 hours of story telling for just one credit its a pretty awesome deal!

A few errors but we'll worth the money overall

Ozma of Oz is the 3rd book in this series and it’s placed in the audiobook as though it’s the 4th and Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz is the 4th but placed as though it is 3rd. I found this out because I had started listening to the 4th book and they spoke about a trip to Australia I was unfamiliar with and it turns out that’s a major plot point of the third book.

3rd and 4th books out of order

the story "Dorothy and the wizard of oz" is out of order. it is in the play list between the woggle bug book and "Ozma of Oz". but takes place AFTER Ozma on Oz.

…but I am only gonna listen once. The amount of imagination to create these books and universe is of course impressive but maybe because I’m not a kid anymore I wasn’t incredibly overwhelmed with most of these stories. In one of the books Ozma, Dorothy and company have dinner with Santa Claus. A bit outside of my suspension of disbelief or I suppose it’s just that…I’m not a kid anymore. The original Wizard of Book is great as well as the book that the movie Return to Oz is based on (though not incredibly faithful to it). For the love of all things, Frank Baum just couldn’t let go of the Nome King. He shows up again and again even though he was supposed to be rehabilitated and diminished in power multiple times. There’s probably other ideas or things I’m forgetting but I don’t want to gloss over the fact that while this narrator does a good job, he has about 5 stock voices that will annoy the hell out of you after about 50 hours (halfway) of listening. Probably less time than that.

Glad I finally got around to listening to these…

The stories are wonderful. The narrator did a good job with the different characters, giving them life with various voices.
That being said, the fluency of the performance was lacking, and he mispronounced "stingy" -meaning ungenerous- multiple times. It was distracting.

All the Oz Stories!

Good narration but there were numerous points where the narrator repeated a word or phrase that I am surprised the sound editing didn't remove for the final product.

Realistic reading, flubs and all.

I thoroughly enjoyed this series of audiobooks!
The stories were fun and the characters endearing. I was surprised to find myself rooting out loud for our protagonists.
The hours flew by but being that there were 91 hours, I had plenty time to enjoy.
The narrator had a myriad of good voices for man, woman and child and all the weird and wonderful animals.
The last story of this series was finished by another author (Ruth Plumy Thompson if I'm not mistaken) due to Frank Baum's passing. His death was gently touched upon in the story. It was sad to know this was the end of the series but it was written very well and on a warm note.

Thoroughly enjoyed!

Would you try another book from L. Frank Baum and/or Eric Vincent?

No

What could L. Frank Baum have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Too much effort to make the characters react and say things to match the worst behavior of any character. This made it impossible to like any of the characters.
The dialog felt forced and very mean spirited.

Did Eric Vincent do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

The narration was the only good part of the book

Did The Complete Wizard of Oz Collection inspire you to do anything?

No, I didn't even get through the half way point before giving up on the book.

Any additional comments?

I did not finish the book. It was too unenjoyableto continue. I could not reach the point that cared about the characters.

Not at all what I expected
