Book Reviews of The Complete Wreck (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Books 1-13)
Book Review: An Unfortunate Series of Red Herrings and Nothing Else
Summary: 1 Stars
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 END Snickett laid down his hand and showed his cards. There was nothing there. No Answers. [...]
Anyone who made it through to THE END, would have to be a sucker and fool to buy Snickett's next offerings, which are already hitting the market. My explanation for the high ratings for this series is that they were written mostly by people who never made it to THE END.
Summary of The Complete Wreck (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Books 1-13)
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!
