Review # 1 was written on 2016-11-13 00:00:00 Heri Arshal Lots to enjoy--multiple story lines, dreams within dreams, excellent dialogue and prose. I grew up enthralled by Eddie, and imagine the man must have had his quirks. Hints to his works are plentiful, and the read is richer for recognizing them.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-09-08 00:00:00 Rohini Kandepaneni This is a 2 star not because it was bad but because I think this book told the wrong story. As imaginative as this interpretation of Edgar Allan Poe's life was, Nola was definitely a way more interesting character, at least the way the book presented her. I wish the last 50 pages had been the bulk of the book with the previous 200+ condensed to something else - perhaps more background than main plot. I would have enjoyed much more the alternate universe adventures of Poe and Nola rather than a slightly roundabout interpretation of most of Poe's life with also some adventure kind of slapped on at the end.
