Lemony Snicket had an unusual education and a perplexing youth and now endures a despondent adulthood. His previous published works include All the Wrong Questions, the thirteen volumes in A Series of Unfortunate Events, The Composer is Dead, and 13 Words.
"Appealingly quirky descriptions and Snicket's compulsive
definitions contribute humor, and savvy readers will enjoy puzzling
out references to classic works of fiction."--VOYA
"Linguistic play and literary allusions abound in this smart, slyly
humorous noir thriller. Fans will be over the moon, a phrase that
here means exceedingly pleased."--Kirkus Reviews
"This series carries the same sarcastic charm of the "Unfortunate
Events" books and will have young readers chuckling out loud...Fans
of Snicket's previous outings will devour the latest
entry."--School Library Journal
