Summary
Now a Netflix Original Series
Dear Listener,
If you have not read anything about the Baudelaire orphans, then before you read even one more sentence, you should know this: Violet, Klaus, and Sunny are kindhearted and quick-witted, but their lives, I am sorry to say, are filled with bad luck and misery. All of the stories about these three children are unhappy and wretched, and this one may be the worst of them all.
If you haven't got the stomach for a story that includes a hurricane, a signalling device, hungry leeches, cold cucumber soup, a horrible villain, and a doll named Pretty Penny, then this book will probably fill you with despair.
I will continue to record these tragic tales, for that is what I do. You, however, should decide for yourself whether you can possibly endure this miserable story.
With all due respect,
Lemony Snicket

fantastic book, poor narration
Lemony Snicket is a fantastic author and these books were my favourite from childhood. however he doesn't bring the characters alive like Tim Curry did.
the book itself is brilliant and a great read

Narrator not as good as first book
I liked the story, it was interesting to hear about the Baudelaires but Tim Curry was a better narrator than Lemony Snicket. I would recommend thís to anyone who likes Lemony Snicket and It makes you want more.

Why not Tim Curry?
Lemony should stick to the writing. Please provide a consistent edition of the whole series with Tim Curry narrating, as he's someone who's properly trained for the job.

Great book but not brought to life in the same way
I love this book series and have thoroughly enjoyed listening to them however the narrator just doesn't bring this book to life in the same way as Tim Curry.

Narration not nearly as good as previous book

The story was great as usual just not brought to life the same way
