About this product

Product Information

Fleeing the village of VFD, after some time in the Deluxe cell for a murder they did not commit, the Baudelaires hide with the Volunteers Fighting Disease on their way to the Heimlich Hospital. Addressed by Babs, who can only be contacted through an intercom speaker on a desk, the orphans start work with the near-sighted Hal in the hospital library of records. Hal says he remembers a file in the records to do with the Snicket fires, but before the children can find it, Babs is suddenly replace by Mattathias - none other than Count Olaf - who plans to inspect every employee in the hospital. Staying late to find the file, the Baudelaires find a picture of their parents with Jacques Snicket, and another, partly obscured figure who may be a writer. But at that moment Esme Squalor arrives - Klaus and Sunny escape, but Violet is led to the operating theatre for a cranioectomy. Disguising themselves, Klaus and Sunny manage to rescue the unconscious Violet, but not before Esme has set fire to the library of records, adding arson to the false charges now facing the children. Chased through the now burning hospital, they make their escape, only to discover that the only way out is to hide in the trunk of Count Olaf's car - possibly the most dangerous place of all.

  • A series wasted on children

    Having escaped the clutches of Count Olaf and the mob of Vile Village citizens, the Baudelaire siblings continue their hunt for answers disguising themselves as Volunteers Fighting Disease. But their plans do not quite work as Olaf and his crew find them and put into action his most dastardly plan to date, resulting in unnecessary surgery and a hospital fire of epic proportions. Throughout the story Snicket maintains his pessimistic optimism while giving away a little more of his own past and involvement in the VFD (whatever that may be). More darkly humorous and exciting this series just gets better and better (and I maintain is thoroughly wasted on children).

  • Interesting and imaginative

    I have read upto this series. I have throughly enjoyed reading these books. The Hostile Hospital is a good read as are all the books. Recommended for children aged 11 onwards
