About this listen

 In The Tell-Tale Start, twins Edgar and Allan Poe foiled the nefarious Professor Perry, who wanted to use them in his deadly quantum entanglement experiment. In Once Upon a Midnight Eerie, they took on his equally evil mother and daughter. Now, in The Pet and the Pendulum, it's time for the real showdown, which takes place in an old mansion right outside Baltimore. As with the first two books, The Pet and the Pendulum is filled with codes, brain-teasers, smart (not snarky) humor, and cameos by the actual Edgar Allan Poe, who is watching over his great-great-great-nephews from the Great Beyond. Listeners won't want to miss the Misaventures' end! Action & Adventure Humourous Fiction Literature & Fiction Mysteries Mystery & Suspense Scary Stories Witty

Critic Reviews

PRAISE FOR THE MISADVENTURES OF EDGAR AND ALLAN POE:

"Funny, outrageously punny, and intricately plotted in a way that will captivate young readers.An easy sell to boy and girl readers who love a funny mystery . . . Book two is on the way and, truly, I can't wait."--Children's Literature on The Tell-Tale Start

STAR “Entertaining and original. . . . Endlessly fun and ultimately very satisfying on every level.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review of The Tell-Tale Start audiobook
