This is an amazing collection of poe inspired poetry and short stories. Just right for giving you a chill and maybe keeping you up at night. It's fun to see some of the classics reimagined for a modern time. Black cats, dead loves, accidents covered up but sins that can't be silenced... this is a great collection and just in time for Halloween!
A solid collection. There were four stories I really didn't like and I wasn't a huge fan of the poetry, but some really great gems in here.Favorites:My Love, In Pieces by Tiffany Michelle BrownTooth and Nail by Vicki WeisfeldMarcela by Penelope PalingThe Facts in the Case of M.

Quoth the Raven is a collection of short stories and poems that takes the works of Edgar Allen Poe and places them in the 21st century. Funny, scary, thoughtful, delightful and fascinating, it’s quite intriguing to see how well Poe’s feverish imagination plays out in our modern times…(Trigger Warnings: A LOT of drug abuse and some sexual assault.

This is a wonderful collection. I'm proud to be a part of this anthology with so many talented writers. Give this a read if you like Poe, or even if you just like something chilling - with 30 stories and poems, you won't be in want of a good scare!
Edgar Allan Poe, king of 19th century mystery and the gothic horror tales, is credited with inventing the modern detective story, wrote stories about inventions, science, and adventure, and, as people may remember him best, was a master of the macabre. The 169th anniversary of his own mysterious death in Baltimore was this month. To mark the occasion, Camden Park Press published a notable anthology of short stories and poems inspired by Poe’s works, reimagined for contemporary times.Lyn Worthen
I was excited to be part of this collection. The idea for my contribution, "The Cooler of Craft Brew," grew from a news story that caught my attention while I was living in Florida, and I realized at once it was an instance of Florida Man Meets Edgar Allan Poe.The story idea bounced around in my head a while until everything fell into place, and happily as I finished, it was just in time to stumble on the guidelines for Quoth The Raven. It was also great fun for me once the anthology came out to...
As one of the writers in this anthology, I'm not rating the book because of my own contribution but because I thoroughly enjoyed every author's entry. Each author was a true Poe fan, staying pure to either the author's original voice or his vision. Sometimes both. I feel confident that Poe would have been proud (and honored). Quoth the Raven references many Poe favorites and some of his more obscure work. This anthology is a good mix of deeply dark reimaginings and oddly humorous takes on Poe's
What a fantastic collection! Creepy and satisfying modern retellings of Edgar Allen Poe works. They kept me up turning pages and then worrying about monsters in the dark.
