5.0 out of 5 stars Great Collection!, July 7, 2010
By 
Donna Castro (Orange, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This anthology is a thorough body of work by Edgar Allan Poe, consisting of all his great early detective and Gothic horror stories, including my personal favorite "Tell-Tale Heart". The beating of the heart beneath the floor and the crazed main character. It's a story that capture and embraces ones cynical side of the psyche. This collection includes all of Poe's short stories. For the price, it is a great and highly recommended investment. A+.

This review is from: Edgar Allan Poe: The Complete Short Story Collection (with Illustrations & optimized for Kindle) (The Poe Collection) (Kindle Edition)
I've been reading this book every night for the past week. Edgar had some pretty good stories, I just wish his poems were also included. The table of contents work fine on my 3rd generation Kindle. Great book!
