A Box of Unfortunate Events brings together the first three books in Lemony Snicket’s darkly humorous and wildly popular A Series of Unfortunate Events. Follow the misfortunes of the Baudelaire orphans—Violet, Klaus, and Sunny—as they navigate treacherous guardians, cryptic clues, and the relentless pursuit of the villainous Count Olaf. The Bad Beginning introduces the tragic tale, The Reptile Room offers a brief glimmer of hope, and The Wide Window plunges them into yet another perilous predicament. Filled with clever wordplay, gothic charm, and a narrator who warns against reading further, this set is an excellent introduction to the delightfully grim world of Snicket’s storytelling.

This three-book box set from 1999 is in very good condition. The books are clean and well-preserved, with minimal wear to the covers and spines. The slipcase is also in very good condition, showing only light signs of handling. A wonderful set for collectors or fans looking to revisit the early books in the series.
