“Is there a gleam of hope for the orphans and their new friends? Most certainly not. The only thing we can really count on are more gloriously gloomy adventures.” Karin Snelson, Amazon.com

Joining the Caligari Carnival, where people come to see lions and messy eating, the Baudelaire siblings' story involves a confusing map, an ambidextrous person, a wooden plank and Chabo the Wolf Baby. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Carnivorous and hungry for more!, 22 May 2005

D'Angelo Twain "davidoff2005" (Cork, Ireland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Carnivorous Carnival - Book The Ninth (A Series of Unfortunate Events: 9) (Hardcover)

The ninth book in the series is one of the funniest and is extremely interesting throughout, despite a slow build up. The Baudelaire orphans find themselves arriving at caligari carnival in the back of olaf's car this time. They disguise themselves as freaks for the freakshow in this carnival to find out what olafs really up to. It turns out Madame Lulu, a mysterious fortune teller, holds the answers to all the baudelaires question, but as their luck would have it, their are many obstacles along the way, incluing olaf and some hungry lions...

4.0 out of 5 stars Is this the best book in the Series?, 6 Sep 2003

"jonf14" - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Carnivorous Carnival - Book The Ninth (A Series of Unfortunate Events: 9) (Hardcover)

Im not able to comment on whether this is the book in the series as we are still waiting for all 13 books to be published, however I can say that this is the 2nd best book to date. I recently purchased this in Canada and I read it in a few days. The plot follows on from Book 8 (so read Book 8 before this one!!!!)
The scene for this book is a Carnival in the Hinterlands where the Orphans end up after travelling in Count Olaf's car boot. They are sent to work in the Carnival as "Freaks." However you will have to read the book to find out what happens to them in the end. All I will say is the end of the book will leave you wanting the 10th Book (The Slipperly Slope) immediately!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Carnivorous Carnival, 9 Nov 2003

"margaretpikovsky" - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Carnivorous Carnival (Series of Unfortunate Events) (Library Binding)

Life had never been good for the Baudaulaire orphans. Although Violet, Klaus and Sunny were very talented and clever, they were constantly on the run from people who wanted to steal their fortune and kill them.In addition to this their friends, the Quagmires, had been kidnapped. And then there was the mystery of "the survivor" and V.F.D.In this thriller the Baudaulaires find themselves in the world of the carnival, where carnivorous beasts lurk behind every shadow and trouble clings on to the orphans like velcro, where fortune tellers pedict unpredictable things...

3.0 out of 5 stars Carnivals are not carnivorous except in this one case
