A Box of Unfortunate Events: Books 7 - 9: Dilemma Deepens: The Vile Village: The Hostile Hospital: The Carnivorous Carnival
- Book Review,
by Lemony Snicket

Book Description
The third unfortunate gift/box -- set of this New York Times best -- selling series, which will include The Vile Village, The Hostile Hospital, and The Carnivorous Carnival.

About the Author
Lemony Snicket was born before you were, and is likely to die before you as well. His family has roots in a part of the country which is now underwater, and his childhood was spent in the relative splendor of the Snicket Villa which has since become a factory, a fortress and a pharmacy and is now, alas, someone else's villa.To the untrained eye, Mr. Snicket's hometown would not appear to be filled with secrets. Untrained eyes have been wrong before. The aftermath of the scandal was swift, brutal and inaccurately reported in the periodicals of the day. It is true, however, that Mr. Snicket was stripped of several awards by the reigning authorities, including Honorable Mention, the Grey Ribbon and First Runner Up. The High Council reached a convenient if questionable verdict and Mr. Snicket found himself in exile.Though his formal training was chiefly in rhetorical analysis, he has spent the last several eras researching the travails of the Baudelaire orphans. This project, being published serially by HarperCollins, takes him to the scenes of numerous crimes, often during the off-season. Eternally pursued and insatiably inquisitive, a hermit and a nomad, Mr. Snicket wishes you nothing but the best.

A Box of Unfortunate Events: Books 7 - 9: Dilemma Deepens: The Vile Village: The Hostile Hospital: The Carnivorous Carnival

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Dear Reader,

This box contains three books, none of which would be good for you to read. All you will find here are depressing tales, unpleasant settings, and endless misfortune. These books contain no additional information whatsoever. There are no important secrets to be found within these volumes -- particularly secrets that would be of interest to a treacherous villain. For that reason, if you are a treacherous villain, please skip to the end of this letter.

The books within this box -- entitled The Vile Village, The Hostile Hospital, and The Carnivorous Carnival -- are the results of a solemn vow I made to research every last detail of the miserable lives of the Baudelaire children. I'm sad to say that these chronicles include such unpleasantries as kidnapping, disguise, murder, paperwork, another disguise, heart-shaped balloons, false allegations, stiletto heels, a shattered crystal ball, a cryptic map, an irritating song, and quite a few more disguises. Such disagreeable details cannot possibly be of interest to you unless you are a treacherous villain. If you are not a treacherous villain, please skip to the end of this letter.

This is the end of the letter. Good-bye.

With all due respect,
Lemony Snicket
