This collection was a lot of fun. It took me awhile to get through as well, because there's over ten hours of stories on here. There's a story from the 3rd Doctor, the 5th, the 6th, The Doctor Who movie (with Doctor 8) and three brand new stories with the 8th Doctor and his companion, Sam. The good parts about this set were most definitely the fact that all the stories were narrated by the Doctors: Pertwee, Davison, Baker and McGann all did them justice, even if occasionally they went a little too far with the voices (I'm looking at you, Pertwee with the Dalek voices, and you, Baker, for Sil and Peri!). The other unexpected joy was finding three brand new 8th Doctor stories at the end of the audiobook; The Bounty, The Forgotten and The People's Temple. My favorite was by far the last one, but they were all well written and beautifully narrated by Paul McGann's buttery voice. The one drawback here was the other stories were simply novelizations of episodes of the TV show. They weren't new stories. That was rather disappointing- but the collection was still enjoyable.
