Product Description

Book 12 in this grim series continues to follow the miserable lives of the Baudelaire orphans: Violet, Klaus and Sunny.

Lemony Snicket tells us that ‘the title and content of this terrible tome are far too distressing to reveal at present’ so the book is for now called The Nameless Novel. This book is so shrouded in secrecy that even the publishers don’t know what to expect. Stay tuned because it promises to be even more terrible for the poor Baudelaires.

The title of the book will be revealed at 3pm on 18th October 2005. Please visit the publishers website to learn more: egmont.co.uk

About the Author
Mr Snicket has spent the last several eras researching the travails of the Baudelaire orphans. During his spare time, he gathers evidence and is considered something of an expert by leading authorities. Lemony Snicket published his first book in 1999 and has not had a good night's sleep since. To his horror and dismay, he has no wife or children, only enemies, associates, and the occasional loyal manservant. Lemony Snicket’s extended family, if they were alive, would describe him as a distinguished scholar, an amateur connoisseur, and an outright gentleman.

Customer Reviews

Hotel horror!
Probably the next-to-last things you would like to read about are a harpoon gun, a rooftop sunbathing salon, two mysterious initials, three unidentified triplets, a notorious villain, and an unsavoury curry and the last thing you would want to do is experience these things. Since you do not want to know how it feels, you can feel sorry for the three children, the Baudelaire orphans, in the book which I am reviewing, who do know how it feels. This book is rather frightening but still is rather fantastic though very upsetting. The rating I would give this book is a disturbing 7/ 10.

As good as ever
Good book.I've read every single book that Lemony Snicket has ever written.This one was just as good as all the rest.He's one of my favourite authors.Is it true that his real name is Daniel Handler? My friend told me it is.But i don't know if i should believe her.Please tell me.Thanks!

Penultimate Peril
When I was little my sister read them and I really wanted to read them, but I didn't understand them. So, now I got the chance to read them all - except from the last one. I thought the first and the second one were a bit sad and from the fourth right up to the seventh book it was a bit boring, because Mr Poe kept on rescuing them at the end of the book. I especially liked the Hostile Hospital and the Penultimate Peril. The most thrilling part was in the Hostile Hospital, when Count Olaf wanted to saw off Violet's head!
