This is not a normal Wodehouse story. It is more for the scholar than for the casual reader. This is the last novel he wrote, and it is unfinished.
Its value lies in the insight it gives into how he wrote. The stories, so easy to read, were not so easy to write. They were the result of detailed preparation and painstaking outlines of potential plots. His original notes for the end of "Sunset at Blandings" are included after the text.
I give it 5 stars, not for readability, but because it is unique.
