Ring for Jeeves by P.G. Wodehouse

3.0

---

I thankfully credit Christopher Hitchens and Richard Dawkins for putting me on to Wodehouse, but this (my second book of Jeeves) seems somehow darker and more contrived. Ring for Jeeves is, as I understand it, the only book in the series without the presence of Bertie Wooster. Maybe that’s it. Maybe it’s Costello without Abbott? Hardy without Laurel? Chaney without Bush? Whatever it is, Ring seems somehow less inspired.
