Hilarious ! This has the usual amount of impostors, butlers, misunderstandings leading to multiple engagements, and pig-napping too. I never get tired of reading similar Wodehouse novels. What a treat it is !

This is another hilarious story set at Blandings Castle with the usual suspects - the Hon. Galahad Threepwood, his dragon of a sister, Lady Constance, and his brother Lord Emsworth. The real story centers around the drama of the Fat Pig Contest - can Lord Emsworth's beloved sow The Empress of Blandings pull off an unprecedented three wins a row this year? Only if his hated rival, Sir Gregory Parsloe, can be stopped from his evil schemes. And since this is Wodehouse, we have two or three sets of love affairs to straighten out before the end.

If you're familiar with Jeeves and Wooster, you'll take right to this book. Perfect summer reading for when you've read too many 'heavy books.' Nothing but fun in this one.
