Todos los relatos ordenados cronológicamente por primera vez en castellano. Con Poe nacería el terror como género, fruto de sus obsesiones y de su corta vida errante. Transmutó el gótico alemán utilizando las claves del Romanticismo, anticipándose un siglo a los miedos y a los deseos más íntimos del hombre moderno. Las maldiciones ancestrales, las fuerzas ingentes y desatadas de la naturaleza, son elementos con los que el autor tratará de contagiar al lector para enfrentarlo al pavor de sus miedos más profundos. Edgar Allan Poe nos lega una obra inmortal, catálogo de sus propios terrores, pero muestra, además, el fino hilo que separa la realidad de la locura.
Han asesinado a Edgar Allan Poe. El famoso detective Auguste Dupin tendrá que resolver el enigma más difícil de su carrera. Con sus habilidades deductivas iluminará ese rincón oscuro que habita en todos los seres humanos. El asesinato de Edgar Allan Poe y otros misterios literarios es un libro de cuentos donde se dan cita grandes autores y personajes de la literatura universal como Dostoievski, Mary Shelley, Franz Kafka y, por supuesto Edgar Allan Poe

?? ?Edgar Allan Poe, one of the great American writers, died a mysterious death in 1849. Found delirious on the streets of Baltimore and wearing clothes that were not his own, Edgar was admitted to Washington Medical Center where he died without explaining what had happened to himself. Even his medical records and death certificate have been lost to history. ?? ?This is the story of the two men whose blood feud brought about Edgar?s death. ?? ?Alexander Reynolds and Matthew Cromwell have both lived many lives under many names. They are men of biblical renown, resurrected men who, having died once, can no longer die until the foretold Second Coming. Eternal life has its cost, though, whether or not Alexander and Matthew want to pay it. ?? ?Alexander has already seen Matthew kill Edgar?s mother and he is determined to keep the same fate from befalling Edgar. ?? ?From the time of Christ to the modern days of the Poe Toaster, The Man Who Killed Edgar Allan Poe is a sweeping novel of love, terror, and mystery that could have come from the imagination of Edgar Allan Poe himself.
