5.0 out of 5 stars one of the best mystery books of all time, October 22, 2001
By 
Ashton Cermak (Sammamish, Wa USA) - See all my reviews
Edgar Allan poe can write mysteries like no other writer. I love mystery books but this one no other writer can compare to. Each mystery has a porpose, a meaning and a moral. Another great thing about the book was the wide time scale that the mysteries were placed on, in-fact one of them happend in the stone age and another in the 1920's. Over all it was an ecellant book and I would definatley recomend it to any mystery lover.
