This abridged audio collection was well produced. That being said it was a very odd collection, and it wasn't what I was expecting. I'm not sure what lead me to believe this, but I had expected an unabridged Full Cast Audio book like the Scripner Juvenile series by Heinlein I loved so much. returnreturnThis was actually a collection of radio shows and not actually the audio books. No narrator, so the character had really odd conversations to tell the listener what was happening. returnreturnThe oddest part though was the collection of the 1st, 2nd and 5th book in the series. Even worse that the end of "The Marvelous Land of Oz" we are told "Join us next week for Ozma of Oz" which we never got and without the in between books some stuff really doesn't make sense in "The Emerald city of Oz"
