Critic reviews

"This is a wonderful collection, so well done, I m continually amazed at how well BJ does the voices and the production is of the highest quality. The jeeves episodes are my favorites of all time, they make me laugh each time I listen to them time, which I do often. I can't recommend this collection and his work in general enough!" - Anthony G. "I have loved reading PG Wodehouse since I was a teen, and have never ever heard anyone interpret the zany hijinks and subtle sarcasm as well as BJ Harrison. There are nights I would try to fall asleep to his wonderful voice but the funny would keep me awake :) If you love the stories of Wodehouse, you will love how BJ brings them to life." - Dee "B. J. does a great job with all of the Wodehousian characters, male and female. I don't know how he does it, even mixing British and American accents when appropriate. Very entertaining and recommended to all of P. G.'s fans (which should be everbody who cares about great writing.)" - Grampaul

Fine introduction to P. G. Wodehouse

I see that some reviewers aren't too thrilled with B. J. Harrison's narration on the Jeeves stories, but I personally found it engaging, nicely capturing the charm and humor of the stories. Occasionally he makes Jeeves sound a bit robotic perhaps, but overall I thoroughly enjoyed Harrison's rendition.

The "collection" seems quite random, with a smattering of Jeeves stories interlaced with other short stories and one novelette, and capped by the full-length novel, "Right Ho, Jeeves."

At the price, a great value for many hours of fun listening. British humor at its very best.

B.J. Harrison has ruine me for any other narrator!

Any additional comments?
As I stated in my review, BJ Harrison has ruined me for any other when it comes to P.G. Woodhouse. Nobody does it better. Sadly he's only undertaken two thus far. I hope there will be more.

Great Narrator!

I always found P.G. Wodehouse hard to get through because the writing was old fashioned and hard to visualize. But B.J. Harrison brought it to life! Such a wonderful narrator!

Great presentation of a master author

In his own whimsical universe’s parlance, Wodehouse “stands alone.”Harrison’s presentation of this master of finely-pressed mischief is excellent.

An oldie but goodie.

I read Wodehouse books 50 years ago and thoroughly enjoyed the gentle humor. They stand the test of time. Still gentle, still humorous.

Great author narrator pairing

Delightful collection of P. G. Wodehouse with stories I have not heard before and gives me more appreciation of his abilities. Narration by B. J. Harrison is so well done, especially with the variety of characters, enhances these entertaining stories. Great addition to my library

I loved everything about this audiobook

I find that p g wodehouse write fantastically, and in this case the narration is spot-on, especially with Bertie. the humor has me rolling, andthe narration has me speaking with an English accent for the better part of an hour after listening.

Clever stories and delightful narration

I’m American so maybe my ear for an English accent isn’t the best but I found the narration enhanced the characters and now I read Bertie Wooster and Jeeves in his voices. These were some of the most hilarious, witty, and entertaining short stories I’ve come across and I can’t believe more people haven’t heard of Wodehouse! Definitely recommend!

Love P. G. Wodehouse

Love his writing. Have listened to a lot of his work read by different narrators, all of it is great. Light, great humour.

Hilarious, Good-Natured, Pure Joy.

The stories are brilliantly funny. The reader is excellent. This is one of the best Audible purchases I have made. If you love Wodehouse you'll want this collection.
