Dear reader,

In Lemony Snicket's series "A Series of Unfortunate Events," there is nothing but misery and despair. However, if you insist on discovering the unfortunate adventures of the Baudelaire orphans, proceed with caution…

Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire are clever children. They are charming, inventive, and have pleasant features. Unfortunately, they are extremely unlucky.

In "The Bad Beginning," the siblings face unpleasant issues such as migratory crows, an angry mob, a newspaper, the capture of innocent people, Deluxe prison, and some very strange hats.

In the tradition of great storytellers, from Dickens to Dahl, comes an extremely dark comedy that is both literary and irreverent, comic and skillfully crafted.

Despite its infamous nature, the series "A Series of Unfortunate Events" has sold 60 million copies worldwide and has become a Hollywood movie starring Jim Carrey and a Netflix series with Neil Patrick Harris. You have been warned.

Are you unlucky enough to have all 13 adventurous books?
