They are charming, and resourceful, and have pleasant facial features. Unfortunately, they are exceptionally unlucky.</p> <p>In The Grim Grotto, the siblings face mushrooms, a desperate search for something lost, a mechanical monster, a distressing message from a lost friend, and tap dancing...</p> <p>In the tradition of great storytellers, from Dickens to Dahl, comes an exquisitely dark comedy that is both literary and irreverent, hilarious and deftly crafted.</p> <p>Despite their wretched contents, 'A Series of Unfortunate Events' has sold 60 million copies worldwide and been made into a Hollywood film starring Jim Carrey and a Netflix series starring Neil Patrick Harris. You have been warned.</p> <p>Are you unlucky enough to own all 13 adventures?</p> <p>The Bad Beginning</p> <p>The Reptile Room</p> <p>The Wide Window</p> <p>The Miserable Mill</p> <p>The Austere Academy</p> <p>The Ersatz Elevator</p> <p>The Vile Village</p> <p>The Hostile Hospital</p> <p>The Carnivorous Carnival</p> <p>The Slippery Slope</p> <p>The Grim Grotto</p> <p>The Penultimate Peril</p> <p>The End</p> <p>And what about All the Wrong Questions?
