Series of Unfortunate Events: The Videos

HarperCollins Publishers has one of the smartest and slyest book promotion teams ever working on The Series of Unfortunate Events Books. I am continuously delighted with the periodic announcements they send out about the series and today, as the series approaches The End, they have introduced:

The Vile Videos. "12 Books in 120 Seconds," the first in a series of three panic-stricken videos leading up to The End, to summarize the first twelve books.


Narrated by Tim Curry and with music supplied by the Gothic Archies, it is a treat for someone like me who intends to listen to the books very soon.

The End will be available on Friday the 13th, October 2006.
