Psmith Journalist
Summary
Cosy Moments did not have a reputation for being controversial. In fact, packed as it was with gut-churning items like "Moments in the Nursery" and "Moments of Mirth," it reconciled Psmith to toothache. Falling in with its deputy editor Billy Windsor, Psmith allows his literary aspirations to run riot and soon Cosy Moments is not cosy at all. With biting attacks on the New York slum problem, the circulation goes up and up, but the owner of the tenements is not amused. He is willing to pay the magazine to pipe down, but the phrase on everyone's lips is "Cosy Moments cannot be muzzled." So the villain has to think of more devious ways of keeping Windsor and Psmith quiet, permanently.

The Inimitable Jeeves
Summary
The Inimitable Jeeves, sees the welcomed return of the loveable fop Bertie Wooster and his ever faithful valet Jeeves. This second book in the Jeeves series follows our favorite English toff as he gets himself into more tricky situations, usually trying to assist his old school friend Bingo Little in his ongoing quest for love. Bingo is one of Bertie's oldest friends and has a propensity for falling for every girl he meets, but things don't always go to plan for poor Bingo so he often turns to his old friend for help, and with Bertie being about as much use in the love department as he is in pretty much everything else it usually comes down to Jeeves to save the day and help the course of true love run smoothly (just not always for Bingo). There are 18 hilarious new stories here for you to enjoy, each of them a separate tale in their own right, and together they make up the tale of Bingo Little's search to find the woman of his dreams. You'll also get to meet Bertie's cousins, the twins Claude and Eustace, and there's no doubt that all of them will be thanking good old Jeeves at one point or another for getting them out of another fine mess, even if Jeeves is usually the one who comes out on top in the end. The stories are told and brought to life with the amazing vocals of David McCallion.

Thank You, Jeeves
Summary
First published in serialised form in The Strand magazine between 1933-34, Thank You, Jeeves is a novel that lends itself to an audiobook, with its diverse range of dotty voices all relayed magnificently by master Wodehouse reader Martin Jarvis. No longer in master Bertie Wooster’s employ, Jeeves is engaged with a new employer, Lord "Chuffy" Chuffnell, an old friend of Bertie’s. True to form, thus follows a supreme comedy of errors which is guaranteed to raise many a chortle, as Wooster travels to one of Chuffy’s cottages in Dorset to carry on his banjolele practice in (dubious) peace.

Leave It to Psmith
Summary
Leave it To Psmith By P.G. Wodehouse Narrated by Graham Scott The immaculate Psmith - newly emancipated from an unwilling participation in the fish business - donates an umbrella (not his own) to a damsel in distress; and to further press his suit, he follows her to Blandings Castle - seat of that amiable and boneheaded peer, Clarence, ninth Earl of Emsworth - in the guise of an absconded Canadian poet. And, for the best possible motives, Psmith is also embroiled in a plot to steal Lady Constance Keeble's fabulous diamond necklace - an endeavour which brings him into conflict with both professional rivals, and with the ever-vigilant Baxter, Lord Emsworth's efficient secretary, and amateur flowerpot flinger...

Something New
Summary
Downton Abbey - P. G. Wodehouse style! Here, we have a glorious ensemble of Woodhousian characters knocking elbows to foreheads in the elegant and grand Blandings Castle. Meet Freddy Threepwood, the vagrant son of doddering old Lord Emsworth of Blandings Castle. Freddy has recently become engaged to Aline Peters, the American heiress of an irascible father. The snag is that Freddy seems to have at one point become enamored of a struggling actress, Joan Valentine, and written some impetuous and imprudent letters to her. Joan has now moved on and is currently employed as a writer for a magazine's society column. Freddy has employed a certain R. Jones, a man of portly and dubious character, to attempt to buy back Freddy's letters, and keep his engagement safe. We also meet Ache Marson, an athlete who writes the Gridley Quayle series of pulp mystery stories, and also lives in the flat just below the actress/writer Joan Valentine. Got that strait? Sound confusing? Wait till we get going. Narrated by B.J. Harrison of The Classic Tales Podcast, who brings each whimsical Wodehouse character to life with his usual, wonderful gusto.
