The Limited Series is a box set released by American country music artist Garth Brooks, released by Pearl Records on May 5, 1998.

The album debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart and the Top Country Albums chart with 372,410 copies sold. It features re-issues of Garth's first six albums, with a bonus track added to each. Sales in the United States were limited to two million copies.

With the release of The Limited Series, Brooks is the first artist to debut at No. 1 on two charts with a boxed set and set a record for first week sales of any boxed set in the Soundscan era.

Of the newly added tracks, "To Make You Feel My Love" (a cover of a Bob Dylan song from the "Hope Floats" soundtrack) reached No. 1 on the country charts in mid-1998. Additionally, "Something with a Ring to It" was previously recorded by Mark Collie on his 1990 debut album Hardin County Line.
