Summary: The Vile Village
Review: The Vile Village is one of the most captivating books in A Series of Unfortunate Events. It gets you hooked and you want to keep reading it. The story is about the horrible experiences of the Baudelaire orphans in the Village of Fowl Devotees. The Baudelaire children's parents died in a horrible fire which happened in the first book of the series. Since then, the children have stayed at many different places. In The Vile Village, the children go to live with Hector. Hector is a man who lives in The Village of Fowl Devotees. The people in the town assigned the children to live with Hector, the handyman. In the Village of Fowl Devotees there are over twenty thousand rules. If you disobey them you will be burned at a stake. Hector told the orphans that he has broken some of the rules himself. One rule he broke was when he made a mobile hot air balloon. Making any kind of mechanical device is against the law in the Village of Fowl Devotees. It is also against the law to have any books that talk about forbidden things. Hector has some books like this in his personal library. If people found out about this he would be burned at a stake. Soon after the Baudelaire children arrive at the Village of Fowl Devotees, Count Olaf enters the town. He is a man who is after the Baudelaire children's enormous fortune. It is against the law in the Village of Fowl Devotees to be evil, so the townspeople are going to burn Count Olaf at the stake. Then the orphans find out he is not the real Count Olaf. The night before he is about to be burned at the stake he gets murdered. The real Count Olaf killed him but the Baudelaire children get accused of the crime. The next thing they know they are being put in jail and are scheduled to be burned at stake the following afternoon. Do you think the Baudelaire orphans will get burned or will they escape? Or will another unfortunate event happen? Read the book to find out!!!!

Summary: The Vile Village
Review: The Vile Village is the seventh book of A Series of Unfortunate Events. This is a great book. If you have read any of the Series of Unfortunate Events I think you will like this book. The books are about three orphans named Violet, Klaus, and Sunny. Starting in the fifth book they have been trying to find out the true secret of V.F.D. Violet is an inventor, Klaus does the researching, and Sunny likes to bite stuff. In each book they go to a different guardian. If you don't have this book buy it now. The reason I like these books is because they keep you interested and are really exciting when the orphans are trying to get away from Count Olaf.

Summary: They're alive! They survived the Vile Village
Review: The Vile Village by Lemony Snicket puplished in 2001.
Boom! Count Olaf has a harpoon gun and is shooting at the Baudelaires
while they're getting into their balloon. And there are millions of crows everywhere. Olaf shot the rope, now they're falling. Want know what happens? Then read the Vile Village.
The main idea is basically Olaf follows the Baudelaires, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny .They have been going from relative to relative but Olaf always finds them and tries to capture them. Why is olaf after them? Because when their parents died they left behind a lot of money and that's the main idea basicaly.
This is a part I liked, here's how it went. "The children scarcely looked at the town. Instead looked straight up at the mysterious and beautiful sight of the sky .Isn't it marvelous hectar cried .His long skinny arms were outstretched and had raise his voice over the sound of luttering wings".
I think others will like this book because it's funny witty and sad combined making atragic funny story.I liked it because you think good prevails but then there stranded again
Out of the whole series i'd give this book a 7 if you dont beleive me reread my review then read the series.

Summary: Don't try to break out of jail by pouring water on the wall!
Review: This book was really good. I thought it was one of the best in the series. Lemony Snicket was streching the truth a little when he wrote about the kids breaking through the wall of bricks with water, though.

Summary: Catchy!
Review: The Vile Village is great for kids. I never liked the Lemony Snicket books before but now I do. Now that I'm in fourth grade, I love them. I recommend this books to kids 9 years and older. It's better than any book I've ever read.

Summary: A Dark Comedy For Kids (adults are welcome)
Review: The book explains terms like "barking up the wrong tree" to young readers, and I've heard that young folks are not bothered by the gloomy story. For adults it's an entertaining adventure with literary references such as the lawyer "Poe" who sends the orphans to a village dominated by crows, who roost every night on Nevermore Tree. Tongue in cheek most of the way, with the audio edition offering exaggerated voices and music to create a mood that is both dark and over the top silly.

Summary: Great Book!!
Review: Great Book to all Baudelaire fans. I was a little dissapointed with the Miserable Mill, but The Series has gotton better now that the Quagmires are involved. Great job, Lemony, your books are great!!

Summary: This Story Is Vile - The Best Book in the Series Thus Far
Review: As a fan of this series is aware, in the last story, "The Ersatz Elevator", the Baudelaire orphans, Violet, Klaus, and baby Sunny, had just lost their last home as it was proven that one of their guardians was in league with the awful Count Olaf. On the theory that it takes a village to raise a child, Mr. Poe, the children's supposed guardian, takes the children to V.F.D., a village populated by crows and really weird people in the middle of nowhere. The children's fortunes have not improved from their last home. This time the children are forced to do chores for the town, all day long. Further, many of the people for whom they do chores little appreciate what the children do. Lastly, the children and everyone in town must follow an extensive list of incredibly ridiculous rules. Soon after the children arrive in town they find a note (a rhyming couplet) from their previously kidnapped friends, Duncan and Isadora Quagmire, kidnapped two books ago by Count Olaf. As time proceeds, the children find more couplets written by Isadora Quagmire. The children hope and believe the couplets will lead them to the location of the Quagmires so that they might be rescued. As always happens to the Quagmires, Count Olaf shows up again, and as usual, he has assorted followers that are with him, including one surprise returning character (I'm not telling!). This time Count Olaf shows up as a detective to solve a murder that occurs in the village. The victim will be an amazing surprise to every reader (and I'm not telling you that one either!). Of course the story climaxes in a way that might lead the reader to believe that the Baudelaire's will escape. Well, the children do get away from town, but when they do they are being hunted for a crime they didn't commit. The ending of this story neatly fits into the beginning of the next book, "The Hostile Hospital", where the children continue to be on the run from the law. It seems like each book in this series is better than the last. While the violence in these books is a lot more than traditional books for this age range, these books clearly distinguish right from wrong and good from bad. Additionally, there are strong educational messages as the children typically have to rely on their own resources and abilities to escape from Count Olaf, typically using their reading skills and innovative abilities to improvise and overcome. Sometimes the educational messages are very strong, such as when the author explicitly defines the meanings of words within the stories. I thought this story was intriguing in a variety of ways, and the author manages to introduce a touch of science fiction or fantasy in the story in the method the children try to use to escape. Lemony Snicket manages to improve his creativity with every story. Because of the mild violence, I would recommend this book for 9 year-olds and above, but, as always, you should know your child and his or her ability to handle the material in this book. Another five star book in this series!

Summary: Finally, a different ending!
Review: The Series of Unfortunate Events, for me, has been a series with serious ups and downs. The first book was good, but two and three seriously meandered and nothing seemed to happen. Four was a little better, and five shook up the status quo quite a bit. Six was different, but kept raising questions without answering them. With this book, book seven, we're still left with more questions than answers, but the status quo is SERIOUSLY shaken up in a way this series really needed, and I'm excited all over again. The Baudelaire orphans -- Klaus, Sunny and Violet, are shipped off again, not to a relative this time, but to to a village with all-too-familiar initials, full of people that will supposedly work together to raise the children. As is always the case in this series, the adults are all either cruel, stupid or wimps -- the children are forced into servitude while being cared for by the kindly handyman Hector, who is nice enough but who does not have the backbone to stand up for the children (much like Jerome in the previous book). Throughout the book the children are trying to solve the big mysteries of this series -- what is VFD? What happened to the Quagmire triplets? And what is the mysterious link between the author and the nefarious Count Olaf? None of these questions are answered definitively, although clues and hints are included for all three -- but what really charges this book up is the ending, which I can honestly say ends (at least in one respect) in a fashion hitherto unseen in this series and which makes you suddenly sit up and take notice. "Hostile Hospital" here I come...
