Jeeves and the Feudal Spirit Audiobook

" It's standard Wodehouse -- love entanglements, aunts, and upper-class awkwardness. The Jeeves & Wooster books are always terrific fun, but can be problematic in audio form. It takes a very good reader to capture the youthful, breezy, and often vacuous Bertie, then a second later give gravitas to Jeeves. Too often the narrators have come off either as snobby, forced, or they sound about 105 while portraying a young lover. Cecil, however, is right on in his portrayal of all the characters. He makes it seem easy...which I am sure it is not. This made a fun story even better. "

" Bertie at one point describes Aunt Dahlia's face as "shining like the seat of a bus driver's trousers." A line like that by itself should make you want to read the book. "

" It's not the best of the Wooster and Jeeves series, but it is still great. Good old frivolous fun. I love pulling out one of these books simply to enjoy the good humor. "

" Laughed my head off. I expect to re-read this. "

" Jeeves and Wooster, always fun and easy. I've a lot going on at the moment, especially at work, so I've not really been able to properly concentrate on any one book. But Wooster's buffoonery is always good to laugh at, so I did, and I love the idea that I have another two or so on my to-read shelf for other busy times ahead. The language is delightful and the antics are funny, and it's good sometimes to know that Jeeves will clear the mess up in the end. :-) "

" Great Jeeves and Worcester, with Aunt Dahlia and a few of Bertie's friends for good measure. "

" Always good. If I could be one fictional character in history it would be Bertie Wooster. The plot does not really matter although it is the same mix of country house, aunt, women who wish to marry bertie to spite someone else, mix ups and late night tip toeing around. "

" Sublime silliness . . . wonderful book! "

" Bertie at his best. I love the "I say" interjections when trying to talk to his Aunt Dahlia and her scathing insults. I love Bertie being constantly insulted and mildly upset by it. I love how Bertie always avoids the gallows. Wodehouse knew his craft. Fun stuff. "

" Pretty standard Jeeves and Wooster stuff. I liked it, but there are others that I like more (Jeeves in the Morning and Code of the Woosters). "

" An entertaining read. I can see why Stephen Fry loves these books. While reading it I couldn't help but get nostalgic for the old tv series and rented the first season. Lots of twists and turns but always in an upbeat Wooster way. "

" I can't think of any other book that has shown me as good a time as this one has. An absolute non-hipsterish pleasure. I'll probably have to go off and read all the rest of them now. "

" Although I much prefer the earliest Wodehouse to most of the later stuff, it seems to me he really gave his all to the Jeeves/Wooster pairing. Everything is more substantial in this book - the characters, the plots, etc. Lovely light reading. "

" I think I esp. like the stories with Aunt Dahlia/Bertie Wooster storylines. Laughing a lot so far...Aunt Dahlia picks up a small footstoll and hurls it at a small china figurine. I almost choked with laughter :D "

" I LOVE this author- he has such a surprisingly slap-stick style, and is always good for several out-loud laughs. "

" I adore the Bertie and Jeeves books. They are all hilarious in their own witty, British, Wooster way. In this one, Jeeves despises Bertie's mustache. Excellent. "

" AKA "Bertie Wooster Sees It Through" "

" Any of the Jeeves books is excellent. Read pratically anything by Wodehouse and you'll be glad you did! "

" Not rubbish, very funny and light. "

" If you have the time, Wodehouse is a great read. His pineapple/mango blend of mystery and witty fiction is a refreshing smoothie on the beach of reading. What I'm saying is, this is great summer/vacation reading. I thoroughly enjoyed his metaphors and witty ways of bringing a story to life. "

" Not my favorite Wodehouse, but it's Wodehouse and nonetheless brilliant. "

" superb... laughed throughout... "

" P.G. Woodhouse will always be a five-star read for me, because his fictional world is the most comfortable and lovely of them all! "

" One of my favorite Jeeves novels. It brings so much to the table in terms of the great mustache debate. "

" As eloquent as it is funny; but that is true of everything PG wrote. "

" PG Wodehouse is a comic genius as always. Unfortunately, unlike the tv show, there was no drag. That only could've made it funnier. "

" I've been listening to Jeeves and Wooster books and think they're hilarious! Love the characters and love the language. "

" I think I esp. like the stories with Aunt Dahlia/Bertie Wooster storylines. Laughing a lot so far...Aunt Dahlia picks up a small footstoll and hurls it at a small china figurine. I almost choked with laughter :D "

" A wonderful BBC adaptation by Jonathan Cecil kept me in stitches on my daily commuter to and from work "

" The book jacket quote says it all: "It is impossible to read Wodehouse and feel bad". It is. It really is. Enough said. "

" I like the books, but (sadly) the TV-series with Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry are som much better... "

" Not rubbish, very funny and light. "

" Very well written. Laughed all the way through it. "

" Another great read by Wodehouse! "

" PG Wodehouse is a comic genius as always. Unfortunately, unlike the tv show, there was no drag. That only could've made it funnier. "

" Wodehouse is always a pleasure. "
