Its... (Oops) it's simply marvelous.
Once again, the three Baudelaire orphans are shipped off to a distant relative, Aunt Josephine. Aunt Josephine is afraid of just about everything and everyone. This makes for the most unique lifestyle. The one exception to her fear of people is Captain Sham (and we all know who he is.) Prepare to join them on their unhappy journey and beware of the "Lachrymose leeches."
In case you missed reading the previous two books in the series you are brought up to date in the first few pages of this story.
Lemony does it again using the formula that gives these chapter books life of their own. We look forward to his writing style and his double entendre (which in this case means is a figure of speech similar to the pun, in which a spoken phrase can be understood in either of two ways) has shades of Bullwinkle.
If you also pick up the recording narrated by Lemony himself you will find him adequate, which in this case is sufficient, But no Tim Curry, to the task.
