Reviews

smashing!


(5 stars)

This is brilliant! One of the funnies books I’ve ever heard. The narrator is maturing into quite a rummy reader and all that. At a few points I laughed so hard I thought I couldn’t go on, but I’m up and taking nourishment.

Funny!


(5 stars)

Mark Nelson does a good job reading these very entertaining escapades of Mr Wooster and his butler Jeeves. However a reader who could deliver this recording in the appropriate British accents would make this audio absolutely hilarious!

Great fun


(5 stars)

Charming collection of short stories featuring the irresistible pairing of Wodehouse’s quietly brilliant man servant Jeeves and his predicament prone employer Bertie Wooster. Includes several stories featuring Wodehouse’s earlier prototype Reggie Pepper. Bertie and Reggie’s richly colorful English slang is half the fun. Perfect escape from the cares of the real world.

a fun listen


(5 stars)

this series of short stories or episodes is very outside my usual listening preferences but I enjoyed both the storytelling and the narration. If you are into the 1910's then I recommend this as a great source of turn of the century vernacular - not quite Edwardian, very nearly roaring 20's

So much fun


(5 stars)

As a great fan of the Jeeves and Wooster TV show, it was easy for me to picture the all of the scenes as they were narrated so expertly by Mark Nelson. Nobody can top him for creative narration. All of the stories are entertaining and so much fun.

Fantastically Funny!


(4.5 stars)

A highly amusing read! All of the old slang is hilarious and the tales are clever. Wodehouse has way or portraying actions with strange word choices that somehow hilariously work! Mr. Nelson narrates excellently: his changes of voice and tone bring all of the "chappies" to life!

Excellent reading of classic humour tales


(5 stars)

Mark Nelson is a delight as a reader and Wodehouse is a delight as a writer. I was surprised several tales in this collection do not feature the eponymous Jeaves nor Wooster but I enjoyed the variety
