The Paris Mysteries by Edgar Allan Poe

Three macabre and confounding mysteries for the first and greatest of detectives, Auguste Dupin
"A perfect winter evening read.. 5/5 stars." — New Books Magazine

"Each [of Poe's detective stories] is a root from which a whole literature has developed... Where was the detective story until Poe breathed the breath of life into it?" -- Arthur Conan Doyle

"He wasn't just a mystery/suspense writer. He was the first." -- Stephen King 

"What a strange, though enormously talented writer, that Edgar Poe!" -- Fyodor Dostoevsky
Edgar Allan Poe (1809-49) was an American writer, best known for his gothic, darkly romantic stories and poems. He is also credited with writing the first ever detective story: 'The Murders in the Rue Morgue'. Along with the other tales included in this edition, it has inspired generations of crime writers and spawned countless detective descendants of Auguste Dupin, including the great Sherlock Holmes.
