The Baudelaires face another perilous chapter

In the tenth installment of Lemony Snicket’s saga, the Baudelaire orphans’ misfortunes unfold amid worsening cold and a collection of hazards that includes snow gnats, a secret headquarters, and an organized troupe of youngsters. An evil villain’s plan and dangerous antics add to the book’s adventure-driven premise. The supplied description frames the series’ ongoing story through its distressed, unlucky orphans and its catalogue of alarming complications, giving this volume a place in a longer sequence rather than presenting it as a standalone adventure.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 9–12 interested in action-and-adventure fiction
  • Readers following the Baudelaire orphans’ continuing saga
  • Young readers who enjoy stories involving villains, secret headquarters, and perilous situations

NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

Like bad smells, uninvited weekend guests or very old eggs, there are some things that ought to be avoided.

Snicket's saga about the charming, intelligent, and grossly unlucky Baudelaire orphans continues to alarm its distressed and suspicious fans the world over. The tenth book in this outrageous publishing effort features more than the usual dose of distressing details, such as snow gnats, an organised troupe of youngsters, an evil villain with a dastardly plan, a secret headquarters and some dangerous antics you should not try at home. With the weather turning colder, this is one chilling book you would be better off without.
