Product Description:
Some boxes should never be opened.
For the first time, the complete A Series of Unfortunate Events – including the highly feared #13: The End – is available in one awful package!
We can't keep you from succumbing to this international bestselling phenomenon, but we can hide all thirteen books in a huge, elaborately illustrated, shrink–wrapped box, perfect for filling an empty shelf or deep hole.
From The Bad Beginning to The End, this box set, adorned with Brett Helquist art from front to back, is the only choice for people who simply cannot get enough of a bad thing!
Ages 10+

And are starting to read them through again. If you didn't get them one at a time, this is a nice set for a (pricey!) one time purchase. Nice quality hardcover books, and a poster and the case for the books.

The stories weave through the terrible circumstances of three siblings giving snippets of Snickets own experiences with the fiendishly clever Olaf, who manages to conceal his identity (along with his cronies) from all the inept adults whose care the children are placed in.

We purchased and read all 13 hard cover books in the series (as they came out) and were thoroughly engaged, although there was NO DEPTH to the characters at all. What kept us going was the entertaining writing style, and the challenge of trying to tie together the multitude of mysterious and interesting loose ends that teased the reader into trying to deduce the underlying fabric of the story that would explain everything in the end.
The last book in the series was entitled THE END. In THE ... Read More
