    About this audiobook

    The ubiquitous butler, Jeeves, comes to the rescue of his new master, Bertie Wooster, from a fate worse than death, so they say. And in the second tale, poor Bertie is summarily dispatched to New York, by an overbearing aunt, to extract his cousin from an amorous affair with a vaudeville artiste! How absolutely dreadful! Jeeves’ managing of affairs offers such wonderful amusing stories that make us laugh and enjoy his ingenuity to the fullest.

      "There is no surer foundation for a beautiful friendship than a mutual taste in literature."Firstly I should point out that Bertie Wooster & Jeeves are two of the greatest literary characters ever drawn IMHO. Their stories have a comfortable familiarity that I love to turn to periodically. In Jeeves takes Charge we are given a series of inter-linked short stories that follows the usual formula where dim-witted but likeable Bertie gets involved when one of idle rich friends gets involved with an unsuitable girl (unsuitable in the eyes of their families who disapprove of the union) and the ever resourceful Jeeves must come up with a plan to save the day. Some readers may see these stories as flimsy and superficial but they will still finish with a smile on their faces. Now, as I said previously, I usually love these books but this one didn't quite hit the mark for me. There is still the usual wonderfully witty and tight prose, not a word is wasted, but as these are short stories rather than one full-length one I felt that it was missing some of it's customary humour, it was a series of chortles than that full blown guffaws.
    • 5/5
      Wonderful, as always.
