Gothic master Edgar Allan Poe's complete works are collected in this multivolume set by Blackstone Audio. Here are his short stories, detective fiction, and poems in all their mysterious and macabre glory. Also included are Poe's literary reviews and editorial musings, comprising an often caustic analysis of the poetry, drama, and fiction of the period. This collection includes Poe's famous stories "The Masque of the Red Death," "The Pit and the Pendulum," and "The Tell-Tale Heart." Poe's poetry features prominently in this collection, with well-known classics such as "The Raven," "Annabel Lee," and "Lenore" presented alongside lesser-known works like "Eulalie" and "The Conqueror Worm." Poe fans will be treated to his fearless and acerbic analysis of then-modern works, a practice earning him the reputation as a "tomahawk man" in artistic circles.

      I forced the last stone into its position; I plastered it up. Against the new masonry I re-erected the old rampart of bones. There's a reason Edgar Allan Poe is still widely popular after nearly 175 years. His tales are well told, timeless, and darned creepy. Jim Gallant's readings of "The Masque of the Red Death," "Silence," and "The Cask of Amontillado" do an excellent and understated job of bringing out the rhythms and meanings in Poe's richly drawn text. A subtle original musical score provides an appropriately dark background. This is a classy production and a nice introduction to some of Poe's best-known tales. B.P.
