Vile Village : Snicket, Lemony, Helquist, Brett: desertcart.ae: Books Review: Great product for a very good price Review: We read all 13 books in a few months. I enjoyed reading it to my son as he liked the dark humour and the funny wickedness of Olaf. It is a tribute to writing, reading and the world of literature, science and language. But it is also too long and the amount and length of repetitions, side stories and introductions was a little annoying at times.

The Vile Village is the 7th book in the Lemony Snicket Series of Unfortunate Events. The Boudelaire children find themselves in a strange village where crows are loved and the townsfolk have thousands of silly rules you must follow - or get burned at the stake. Their guardian? The entire village, that believes "It takes a village to raise a child." But as soon as the Baudelaires arrive they are put in the care of a timid cleaning man and made to work as his assistants - cleaning the entire town! The village is told about Count Olaf from the start, so that they could keep an eye out for him. When the villagers do find Count Olaf, the Baudelaires are accused of his murder. The Vile Village is clever, exciting and very creative. Characters are well done, as is the peculiar setting. Excellent for childrens' reading, and adults as well.
