review 1: I received this book in exchange for an honest review via GR R&R.While I've never been a major Poe fan, this book drew me in from start to finish! I LOVED the way the story linked Poe's poems, and gave them a history of how his poems came to be. This book has all the best qualities from all genres, romance, mystery, intrigue, supernatural & fables, and Mr. Wilson intertwined all of these AND MADE IT WORK! That is a huge feat in itself. BRAVO!I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who likes, loves or detests Poe, with the way the poems are worked into the story, it's keeps readers wanting more. It was properly written, the flow was steady and believable. I'll be praying to the Gods to have a sequel, even a trilogy, or any other works written by Mr. Wilson. He writes with in... moretelligence, and well researched, to bring this story to life.Thank you so much for allowing me to sample your work, and I'm looking forward to more of your work.
review 2: The moment I saw Poe's name I was intrigued. Mr. Wilson did not disappoint. If you are already a fan of Poe you will enjoy this alternate history of Poe as a hero. If you don't have the slightest clue who Edgar Allan Poe is then you will be seduced by the magic and mystery of the tale. I have already recommended this to people who know and love Poe. I am confident they will love it as well. My only issue is with the prose as it tends to overflow in some passages but I think that is a problem with the reader and not necessarily with the writer. I am just one who prefers a simpler style. However fans of Hardy or James will really appreciate the long, detailed sentences. Overall I gave it 4 out of 5 stars. But a very high recommendation for all to read it. less

Excellent story with Poe as the main character and a tie in to the DeChance series.
