Toot-Toot needs to learn sign language

Great stories. But the narrator doing Toot's voice sounds stupid. It was difficult not to be in a state of constant cringe. If I were Harry & had to listen to that voice I would either cast a spell of silence on Toot or cut out his vocal cords or put rat poison on the pizza. Otherwise really good stuff.

Great Compilation

A wonderful collection of short stories by some of the greats in fantasy fiction. A couple of the stories that I was not enamoured by, but all in all a wonderful listen. Every performance was a hit and overall I loved it!

Fun

Liked some stories better than others, but was fun catching up with some old friends. :-)

An enjoyable collection of stories

Overall, I enjoyed these stories. The common theme of magic and bravery in the face of danger ties them together well and is a theme I personally really enjoyed. The variety of protagonist was really diverse and I thought that was really cool. Because they are short stories, the writers took more risks and took unconventional viewpoints that don’t usually make it in novels.
Some stories are really great. Others are decent. Only about 2 stories did I find hard to get through. This was mostly due to the narrators choice of voices though.

nice little change

A nice group of not boring happily ever after stories. i only knew a few of the authors, but enjoyed it
