Resumen del Editor

Another classic funny Jeeves and Wooster story. Bertie once again travels to Totleigh Towers to try to repair the rift in Gussie Finknottle and Madeline Basset's engagement. Pop Basset and Roderick Spode (Lord Sidcup) think he is there to steal a black amber statuette for Bertie's Uncle Tom. How could things get complicated?

Terrible narration

Not one of the best Jeeves & Wooster stories, and ends rather abruptly, but would have been 100 times more enjoyable with a different narrator. Such an irritating repetitive rhythm & awkward speech pattern. Sound quality is also bad & you can hear several places where they had to come back & patch some correction into the recording & it sounds like a completely different person.

Fiddlesticks!!!

the story is fun! but the reading was very bad quality, and then the book ended abruptly. I'm so upset that there is no other recording in audible.

Incomplete

Excellent story, but this doesn’t include the whole book. It ends partway through the book.

Dreadful reading by David Ian Davies

The reader has not taken the trouble to familiarize himself with the text, so he injects pauses into his reading at random places that completely disturb the understanding.

absolutely unlistenable

This is by far the worst Wodehouse reader in existence. his habit of lilting the end of every single sentence will get on your nerves immediately and his voice is simply awful to try to listen to. give it a miss.

Painfully awful narrator. Returned the book.

I've been working my way through the Jeeves and Wooster books on Audible. This is the only option for this particular book.

I took no more than 15 minutes to confirm my first impression. The narrator is stunningly awful. So awful, that I could not stand to listen to the rest of the book - because of the atrocious narration. So awful that I looked up how to return a book.

This is by far the worst narration of all the Jeeves and Wooster books. Worst by a very wide margin. The sound quality is horrendous, and the narrator seems to have totally missed the character Jeeves, voicing him as a simpering idiot. The Wooster narration is just as bad,

Listening to this was absolutely painful. Avoid at all costs.

Audible made returning this book easy, and immediately/automatically refunded my money.

Do not buy -- last few chapters are missing!

Bad recording and the last few chapters are missing -- the audio book ends abruptly without any resolution -- the creator of this Audible version didn't bother to finish the book! Do not buy!

Recording kills it.

I don't usually leave reviews, but I just wanted to warn people about this. The recording is absolutely terrible. It almost sounds like they're doing it through a soup can and string method. The narrator puts random inflections like he's asking questions randomly in almost every sentence. The performance itself seems like someone who is reading it for the first time to school children trying to make every sentence seem interesting and so he moves the tone of his voice up and down at random. He also speaks very quickly with no need to pause for punctuation so its the first book I've had to actually slow down . It also feels like any space between sentences was edited out. It's made it very difficult to follow.

I'm sure the story has it's moments and is probably very entertaining, but I'm honestly lost with this performance and I don't really know what is happening with the narrator trying to read the book out loud as fast as possible with no concept of tone or punctuation. I'm also unsure if a single breath was taken in the making of this recording.

This is not complete.

I am not entirely sold on the reader, who for some reason gave two non-Scottish characters a solid Scottish accent, but my main problem with this audio book is that it quits suddenly in the middle of the story. Can I have my money back?
