Poor Bertie is in the soup again, and throughout this latest omnibus it is only Jeeves who keeps him from being the fish and the main course as well. In these delightful pages you will encounter all the stalwarts who have made the Jeeves novels and short stories the pinnacle of English humour, from Aunts Agatha and Dahlia to Roderick Spode, Tuppy Glossop, Madeline Bassett, Oofy Prosser and Anatole the Chef. At the end even Augustus the cat has come to be much obliged to Jeeves. This volume contains Much Obliged, Jeeves, Aunts Aren't Gentlemen and the short stories 'Extricating Young Gussie', 'Jeeves Makes An Omelette' and 'Jeeves and the Greasy Bird'.

Kundevurdering:
Boken inneholder historiene "Much Obliged, Jeeves", "Aunts Aren't Gentlemen, "Extricating Young Gussie", "Jeeves Makes An Omelette" og "Jeeves and the Greasy Bird". De siste tre er korte historier, men ikke noe mindre fornøyelige av den grunn. Stakkar Wooster må sloss mot de gamle sparring-partnerene sine som Tante Agatha, tante Dahlia, Roderick Spode (hail Spode!), Tuppy Glossop, Madeline Basset, Oofy Prosser og kokken Anatole. Her blir vi også kjent med katten Augustus the Cat som Jeeves har hengende i hælene. Foreløpig er dette siste Omnibus som er laget. Det er synd i grunn fordi tilhengerskaren av disse bøkene øker bare og de er flotte samleobjekter.

«For as long as I'm immersed in a P.G. Wodehouse book, it's possible to keep the real world at bay and live in a far, far nicer, funnier one where happy endings are the order of the day»
