Alice In Wonderland Series の小説・ストーリー

If you're talking about the original Lewis Carroll books, 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' and 'Through the Looking-Glass', there are a ton of audiobook versions out there. Public domain status means every narrator and their cat has taken a crack at it.

I've listened to a few. The one by Scarlett Johansson is... fine, very polished but maybe a bit flat for such a weird story. The Audible exclusive with a full cast, including Michael York and Jim Dale, is more lively. The real standout for me is the one narrated by Christopher Plummer. His voice has this perfect mix of gravitas and twinkle that fits the nonsense poetry so well. There's also a version read by Michael Hordern from the 90s that you can find on Librivox; it's charmingly old-fashioned.

Beyond the main books, I'm not sure there's an official 'Alice in Wonderland series' unless you count continuations by other authors, which rarely get audio treatment.

If you mean Lewis Carroll's original 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' and its sequel 'Through the Looking-Glass', they're honestly two very distinct moods for me. The first book feels more chaotic and dreamlike; Alice falls down the rabbit hole into a world where the rules keep shifting. It's packed with those iconic moments like the Mad Tea-Party and the Queen of Hearts screaming 'Off with her head!' The sequel, where she steps through the mirror, has a different structure—it's framed as a chess game, and the nonsense feels more mathematical and puzzlesome, with characters like Tweedledee and Tweedledum and the poem 'Jabberwocky.'

Some readers find 'Looking-Glass' a bit colder or more intellectually playful compared to the raw, bewildering wonder of the first. The tone shift is noticeable; Wonderland is impulsive, while the Looking-Glass world often feels preordained, like a sequence of moves. I've always been more attached to the first book's sheer anarchy, but the sequel has a haunting, logical beauty that grows on you with rereads.

Actually, Lewis Carroll only wrote two books: 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' and 'Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There'. Everything else is by other authors or compilations. So, the only real 'order' is to read those two, and in the order they were published. Wonderland first, Looking-Glass second.

That said, if you're diving into the extended universe—like the 'Looking Glass Wars' series by Frank Beddor or Christina Henry's 'Chronicles of Alice'—those are totally separate modern reimaginings. I'd finish Carroll's originals first to get the references, then jump into whatever spinoff catches your eye. My local library had a collection called 'The Annotated Alice' with amazing footnotes that made the Victorian jokes make sense, which was a game-changer for me.
