<p>Dear reader,</p><p>There is nothing to be found in Lemony Snicket's 'A Series of Unfortunate Events' but misery and despair. You still have time to choose another international best-selling series to read. But if you insist on discovering the unpleasant adventures of the Baudelaire orphans, then proceed with caution...</p><p>Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire are intelligent children. They are charming, and resourceful, and have pleasant facial features. Unfortunately, they are exceptionally unlucky.</p><p>In The Penultimate Peril, the siblings face a harpoon gun, a rooftop sunbathing salon, two mysterious initials, three unidentified triplets, a notorious villain, and an unsavoury curry...</p><p>In the tradition of great storytellers, from Dickens to Dahl, comes an exquisitely dark comedy that is both literary and irreverent, hilarious and deftly crafted.</p><p>Despite their wretched contents, 'A Series of Unfortunate Events' has sold <strong>60 million</strong> copies worldwide and been made into a Hollywood film starring Jim Carrey. And in the future things are poised to get much worse, thanks to the forthcoming Netflix series starring Neil Patrick Harris. You have been warned.</p><p>Are you unlucky enough to own all 13 adventures?</p><p>The Bad Beginning</p><p>The Reptile Room</p><p>The Wide Window</p><p>The Miserable Mill</p><p>The Austere Academy</p><p>The Ersatz Elevator</p><p>The Vile Village</p><p>The Hostile Hospital</p><p>The Carnivorous Carnival</p><p>The Slippery Slope</p><p>The Grim Grotto</p><p>The Penultimate Peril</p><p>The End</p><p>And what about All the Wrong Questions?
