Editorial reviews

Edgar Allen Poe’s poems and stories of horror and mystery blend wit with the macabre. His inventive narratives and erudite use of language have delighted countless fans since his tragically short career ended in the early 19th century. Here is a selection of works from one of the most admired and entertaining American intellects.

Tim Habeger performs this third volume slowly, deliberately, and with resonance. It includes Poe’s only novel, The Narrative of A. Gordyn Pym, detailing a young man’s adventures at sea, as well as six short stories that will excite and amuse, with descriptions of undead wives, drug-induced states, mistaken identity, and drunken sailors.

I love Poe - great to listen to these

Great compilation of works. If you are a fan of Poe, you should enjoy these.
The narration was well done. The ebook was free and the audio was .99 - really can't get a better deal than that!
