About this listen

In this seventh installment of the Jeeves series, the unflappable butler once again must apply his cleverness to rescue Bertie Wooster—this time from being arrested, lynched, and engaged by mistake! Chaos ensues when Aunt Dahlia demands that Bertie help dupe an antique dealer into selling her an 18th-century cow creamer. Complications grow as Bertie's pal Gussie Fink-Nottle is more interested in studying the effects of a full moon on the love life of newts rather than marrying Madeline Bassett. Added to the cast of eccentrics are Roderick Spode—leader of a fascist organization called the Saviors of Britain—and an unusual man of the cloth known as Rev. H. P. "Stinker" Pinker. The seventh installment in the Jeeves series is off to a rollicking start.

 The Best of Jeeves and Wooster cover art
The story as ever is great. I was disappointed to find this was a different reader as I have been listening to Jonathan Cecil to this point. Both he and Martin Jarvis are excellent. This chap is pants. I am only a short way in but will persevere as there is no better alternative.

Turgid narration

The Jeeves and Wooster books are always brilliant,. However, this version of The Code of the Woosters is badly let down by very lackluster narration. I only listened to half of it and then had to give up because it was painful to experience. This really needs to be re-recorded by a top-notch narrator.

I was really looking forward to this audiobook, but a great book was turned into a slog to get through because of poor narration.

Please Audible give us an unabridged version with a different person reading.
