Reviews
Mark is Great
JohnBog
Mark Nelson is such a great reader that any book he reads would be entertaining but a really good story like this is even better. Is he an actor?

Finally! Love this Wodehouse entry!
Harry Lime
A fresh breath of P.G.W.; one can take just so much Wooster. Yes, there're similarities. However, the mix of Americans (pretentious, yet not able to pull off the class institution of the British) give it the spice that made the story a delightful period fiction. The reader was well matched to the material. His characterization were spot on.
hilarious misadventures
Ally Sch
loved the whole story... and found myself truly laughing out loud often. I couldn't find any prior books about Jimmy but it would character-wise be related and preceded by Little Nugget. The Little Nugget being actually about Nesta's family and marriage to Peter. So if you need more Ogden behaving badly; read The Little Nugget
A LibriVox Listener
Mark Nelson is a delight to listen to. This light-hearted comedy involves characters from other Wodehouse novels, and thus expands this literary universe nicely. A good read for passing the time, although not as deep as Our Mutual Child, for example.
terrific

I like everything by this author, but this is my new favorite by a mile. What a great story, and lots of fun.
