A Series of Unfortunate Events
by Lemony Snicket
Read by Tim Curry

Curry portrays the most dastardly villain to ever greet your ears in this wonderfully suspenseful and sinister (somewhat tongue-in-cheek) children’s series which is also suitable for adults who can suspend disbelief. Curry reads all the parts with considerable theatric skill. The first installment, The Bad Beginning, relates the tragic story of how three orphans ended up in the care of a terrible man who only wants their inheritance, but nevertheless it will leave you craving more, more, more distressing developments!
