This is the first collection ever of Poe stories illustrated with the influence of steampunk. Running Press Teens has selected some of the most popular, thrilling, and memorable stories and poems by the classic 19th century American writer whose literary talent continues to open the mind to countless interpretations.

Just in time for Halloween, Steampunk: Poe is the perfect classic horror choice with a haunting steampunk twist!
