P. G. Wodehouse
Bill (Lord) Rowcester was well and truly in the gumbo. With the benefit of hindsight he could see that setting himself up as a Silver Ring bookie might not have been his smartest move ever. Particularly when being down on his dibbs threatens his oncoming nuptials with the sterling Jill Wyvern. Lucky for Bill he had the land-lease of Jeeves. Lucky indeed that the fish-fed mastermind's formidable genius was at liberty to take a header into such teasers as borrowing the stellar Mrs. Spottsworth's pendent for an hour or three or overseeing the added ingredients of Abbey's Derby Dinner, to say nothing of his lordship's mauve pajamas.

The Audible narration is very good—the best Wodehouse reader out there who’s not named Cecil.

Jeeves tale with no Wooster

But the real crime and why I put it down was Wodehouse lost Jeeves. This book written after WWII did not have the same Jeeves The resourceful, wise, always one step ahead Jeeves was replaced by a common thief. . It had a Jeeve that would resort to dirty underhanded tricks to get ahead. The back breaker was when Jeeve suggested a theft to get his new dim witted Sir out of a bind. Theft! Straight up robbery! Crime! Dishonorable escape from a most legitimate debt. ! Not something the always resourceful Jeeves of the past would ever resort to. I put it down and am not coming back.
I put it down.

First, this is perhaps the only Jeeves tale in which Bertie Wooster does not appear accept by reference. As a result, Bertie’s blathering narration - the pinnacle of Plum’s art - is consp. by its a. in this work.
Also, the narration of this particular version, while extraordinarily versatile, has two characters so overacted that they detract from even the flawed book from which they are drawn.
Given that Wodehouse wrote nearly 100 books, it’s easy to find spectacularly superior ones if you’re in the market - the names of Joy in the Morning, The Code of the Woosters, and The Mating Season spring to mind.
Not his best
