A Very Unfortunate Entry

I ordered this today from Amazon. It’s the Lemony Snicket A Series of Unfortunate Events box set. I’ve been promising myself that I’d buy these books ever since I bought one as a gift for someone several years ago. Amazon UK were out of stock so this is coming from the States - I’ll have to plant a tree to offset the carbon footprint!

As book blurbs go this is one of the better ones that I’ve read:

Amazon.com’s Book Description

For readers who deserve the very worst, all thirteen volumes in Lemony Snicket’s best-selling A Series of Unfortunate Events are now available in one terribly heavy package. Slip-cased in an excruciatingly exquisite box, readers can now uncover the entirety of the Baudelaire’s misfortunes—right from The Bad Beginning through to The End. There is nothing worse than having all thirteen of Lemony Snicket’s books in one place, except, perhaps, reading them.

About the Author

Lemony Snicket is the author of all 170 chapters in A Series of Unfortunate Events. Despite everything, he is still at large.

You probably won’t want to visit the rather unpleasant official website?
