About the book
NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
Everybody loves a carnival! Who can fail to delight in the colourful people, the unworldly spectacle, the fabulous freaks?
A carnival is a place for good family fun—as long as one has a family, that is. For the Baudelaire orphans, their time at the carnival turns out to be yet another episode in a now unbearable series of unfortunate events. In fact, in this appalling ninth installment in Lemony Snicket's serial, the siblings must confront a terrible lie, a caravan, and Chabo the wolf baby.
With millions of readers worldwide, and the Baudelaire's fate turning from unpleasant to unseemly, it is clear that Lemony Snicket has taken nearly all the fun out of children's books.
- Dark Humor: Lemony Snicket continues his solemn duty to chronicle the Baudelaire’s despair—a word which here means, \"a carnival with a lion pit and no cotton candy.\"
- Secret Societies: A mysterious fortune-teller holds the key to V.F.D., but is she a friend, a foe, or something much more complicated?
- Family Secrets: A crucial clue suggests one of the Baudelaire parents may have survived the fire. But the truth is hidden within the carnival’s walls, guarded by the villainous Count Olaf.
- Unlikely Allies: To survive, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny must join the carnival’s \"freaks\"—including a contortionist, a hunchback, and the mysterious Chabo the wolf baby.
