Similarly massive omnibusii exist for other authors-- I prefer them to collections of individual books. On my reader right now, the largest omnibusii I have claiming to be the complete works (which I've never actually double-checked):

Mark Twain: 15,571 pages
Jules Verne: 12,978 pages

(This is with Calibre's page numbering-- for some reason, Calibre always shows a much higher page count than my Sony.)

(Waiting for HarryT's head to explode over the faux-latin plurals.)
