This is an unusual book without the usual type of linear storyline. Instead, there is a loose plot with many, many, meandering diversions and asides. These are frequently funny and usually thought provoking.
Patrick Warburton’s narration marries with this perfectly and gives the book an incredibly charming and listenable quality. His voice is somehow soothing and intensely relaxing, yet always animated and entertaining.
I love his performance and have listened to and enjoyed this unique book multiple times. Highly recommended!

Patrick Warburton Perfection!

Patrick Warburton needs to read more books for audible, especially ones written by Lemony Snicket. I really enjoyed listening to him. Story was okay, found myself laughing at certain parts and slightly bored in other parts. I would recommend it purely for Patrick Warburton.

Brilliant narrator, story was okay.

Loved the narration

Interesting story. Maybe tricky for children but not for my 10 year old who loved it. The narration is in a class of its own. Peerless.

This is the best performed Audiobook I have heard.
