Beware of bad things in beautiful packages! The book that launched the New York Times bestselling Series of Unfortunate Events is getting an unbelievable transformation. In this limited-run deluxe edition, The Bad Beginning will receive a luxurious leather lamination cover with gold foil stamping, full-color digital edges and endpapers, and bonus content written by the elusive Lemony Snicket and illustrated by his esteemed associate, Mr. Brett Helquist. Imagine, if you will, a series of tales so terrible that over 50 million innocent minds have been ruined by them--stories so indelibly horrid that the world has remained rapt for more than a quarter of a disturbed century. Now visualize this scourge on society being suddenly available in a shameful new edition so sensational, so irresistible, so spectacular that Snicket fans and schadenfreude enjoyers from all walks of life will fiend to get their grubby hands upon its newly gilded cover. Lock your doors and hide your little ones, for this is no mere fancy. The reviled Lemony Snicket''s The Bad Beginning --book the first in the Series of Unfortunate Events--may only be available in this wretched yet ravishing edition for a limited time. But Count Olaf has been known to do more harm in the blink of an eye . . . so heed this warning!
