A Great Ending To The Series - By: Alex Rider, 28 Feb 2008
I had bought the first ten, & had the last 3 for christmas. I finished the three in about 2 weeks. The series had me gripped from the start, from the weird disguises of Count Olaf to the pointless descriptions & totallly off the point paragraphs written by the extremely talented Lemony Snicket. An excellent series that I would recommend to anyone & everyone.
The End... - By: Mehajabeen Farid, 13 Jan 2008
This book is the last in A Series of Unfortunate Events, & even if you read the last twelve books full of courageousness, you probably can't stand such unpleasantness as a fearsome storm, a suspicious beverage, a herd of wild sheep, an enormous bird cage, & a truly haunting secret about the Baudelaire parents. This book doesn't completely finish of the series because at the end of `The End' there is the first chapter of `The Last' which continues the story even further. I think this book is the worst & least frightening or full of bad luck. They are stranded in the sea - they come onto an island, they are hungry & thirsty - they get nourished, they want to find out about their parents - they do. So as you can clearly see this book isn't too bad. And there is a very unusual twist to 'The End'.
A lot of people will be mad! Personally I liked it. - By: Xocrates, 05 Jan 2008
Those who expect to get a sense of closure after reading The End are in for a sad disappointment, as the book offers little to no answers.

However after reading the book myself, I think that the book works rather well, if not by being a conclusion to a series, then by fitting well with its own themes.

I'm divided as to whether or not this is a cowards exit, while at the same time offering something a bit different & less cliché than most endings or those where the solution of the darkest mysteries are sadly disappointing.

All in alll, a good book as long as you don't expect any answers.

Thoroughly disappointing. - By: Eragon, 01 Dec 2007
This book was terrible & quit boreing. I expected there to be at least a few answers to some of the questions in the earlier books but there were none. It didn't have a satisfying ending. It was like he ran out of ideas & just finished it. The earlier books were good but this one wasn't.
