Warning: Your day will become very dark—and possibly damp—if you read this book.

Plan to spend this spring in hiding. Lemony Snicket is back with the eleventh book in his New York Times bestselling A Series of Unfortunate Events.

Lemony Snicket's saga about the charming, intelligent and grossly unlucky Baudelaire orphans continues to provoke suspicion and despair in readers the world over. In the eleventh and most alarming volume yet in the bestselling phenomenon A Series of Unfortunate Events, the intrepid siblings delve further into the dark mystery surrounding the death of their parents and the baffling VFD organisation.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Grim Grotto to be better than the print version?

I haven't read the print version but I'm loving the audio versions.

What other book might you compare The Grim Grotto to and why?

Other Lemony Snickets, of course.

What does Tim Curry bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Love Mr Curry - he does an excellent array of voices too.

Tim curry makes a good story terrific

these stories are clever and use literary devices in a most inventive way. any repetition and fatiguing use of these devices becomes terrific fun in the voice of Curry's masterful narration. curry makes this story sing! GREAT fun!

Listen to this series with kids while you can

Although it has been a few years, my children who are teens still remember these books. We always listened to them on car rides to Cape Cod. Now that they are teens, they sit in isolation each plugged into their own audio device. So if you have children from 6 to 12 and have a long car ride planned or drive with your kids on a regular basis, listen to this series. You should start with book #1, they are a hard listen out of order. At 5 hours in length you can make it pretty far down the highway.

Marine adventures in the Series of Unfortunate Events!

This is another great story in the series - mostly because of the interesting setting and new cast of characters that we meet. Tim Curry narrates again! Fantastic!

Wow

I liked how he had different voices for every character it made me feel more connected to the story
