Synopsis:

Edgar Allan Poe has lost everyone he ever loved and now he is losing his mind. Haunted by his dead wife and his literary failures, the poet tumbles into a fantastic world created by his genius...and his madness.

In this third and final volume of
The Imaginary Voyages of Edgar Allan Poe, Little Poe, Irving Rat, and friends have one last hope of helping Poe escape the land of dreams. But it is a path fraught with danger, enemies at every turn, and deadly tasks. It is a journey that not all of Poe’s fellowship will survive.

Praise for THE IMAGINARY VOYAGES OF EDGAR ALLAN POE

“Monsters, myth, and magic combine in a dream of an adventure from Dwight L. MacPherson and the Hocus Pocus team. The final [book] has everything you want from this spellbinding series; peril, daring-do, and, most importantly, heart.
- Cavan Scott, New York Times Bestselling Author of Star Wars: The High Republic, The Ward, and more

“The Imaginary Voyages of Edgar Allan Poe is truly literature reimagined and could only have come from a
devotee of Poe. MacPherson and team give us the ending Poe deserves - both as a person and comic hero in this inspiring trilogy. Epic, heartfelt, loving, tragic, and yet full of hope. This is a showcase of the power of comics and will delight readers of all ages.”
- Tim Smyth, Author of Teaching with Comics and Graphic Novels: Fun and Engaging Strategies to Improve Close
Reading and Critical Thinking in Every Classroom, Educator


“The Imaginary Voyages of Edgar Allan Poe continues to combine vivid fantasy imagery and storytelling with Edgar Allan Poe's biography and literature. Fast paced, suspenseful, irreverent and sneakily illuminating, this comic epic will change how you think about Poe's life and legacy.”
-Matthew Pearl, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Dante Club, The Poe Shadow, and The Technologists

"With The Imaginary Voyages of Edgar Allan Poe, Dwight L. MacPherson and Luis Czerniawski take us on an odyssey of epic proportions. Gods! Ghosts! Flying goats! A crab violinist! A Cyclops! And a Nightmare King who must be defeated at all costs. ‘Without imagination, one cannot truly dream,’ we're told, and this story unfolds like a dream, a wild, mind bending graphic work that is home to the most expansive, imagined world I've seen since Jeff Smith's Bone. I read both volumes in one breathless sitting. I anxiously await the third."
- David James Poissant, author of Lake Life and The Heaven of Animals

"Twisted and ominous, yet rich and charming. MacPherson has crafted a complex and enchanting story that blends the macabre and mythological into a strange dream land that is worthy of the great poet and author, Edgar Allan Poe."
- American McGee, Creator and Designer of American McGee’s Alice, Alice: Madness Returns, and Grimm

"A beautiful and bizarre adventure into wonder, quirky, lovely and fascinating!"
- Kurt Busiek, Multiple Eisner Award-winning creator of Astro City, writer of Marvels

"A thrilling adventure with beautiful art. More, please!"
- Roderick Gordon, Author of the New York Times Bestselling Tunnels series
