Edgar Allan Poe Reader Novels & Stories

“A reader. You attach it to any book, codex, or artifact that contains recorded knowledge. When activated, it transfers the contents directly, without opening the object or disturbing any seals bound to it.” His eyes sharpened with interest after my explanation. “Directly… to my mind?” I raised a brow at that. “No, mine,” I corrected subtly, “or to itself. It stores what it reads. The information can be retrieved later, intact. It doesn't depend on the creator’s mana, only activation.” Silence fell between us. Feline let out a low breath, something between disbelief and awe. He stared at the reader as though he were witnessing the finest creation of his time, and heat crept up my cheeks desp

Emon disappears into the history section, but I drift toward the poetry aisle, my sanctuary. I trail my fingers along the spines. Familiar names. Ancient pain in tidy lines. I pick up a volume of Rilke and flip it open at random. > “Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.” My throat tightens. I close the book and put it back. My mark aches. A soft, rhythmic throb that pulses in time with something far away. Edward. I can feel his emotions like shadows under my skin, he’s restless. Searching. Maybe even… sad.

It took everything he had to continue the feigned innocence act while Riley glared at him like he'd clocked time in the land of stupid. "Who's Yeats?" Riley stalked a few steps and came back. "Famous Irish poet? Only one of the best wordsmiths to ever be born? I can't believe..." He straightened suddenly at Brady's grin and Tristan's low laugh. "Walked into that one." Riley resumed their trek. "Assholes." From several paces ahead, Fiona pivoted and sauntered backward. "Personally, I've always been a Robert Browning fan." Kaida glanced over her shoulder and pointed to herself. "Edgar Allan Poe."

*Edgar's Pov* The list had twelve names.He had read it four times before he left the tertiary facility and twice more in the car and was now reading it a seventh time in the upper floor room of his accommodation with the particular stillness of a man who had passed through anger and come out on the other side into something colder and more permanent.

His heartbeat transfers through his chest into my palm, one steady knock after another. I notice the book on his desk. Half-open, a page marked with a folded corner. "What are you reading?" His chest shifts as he reaches for it. "A poem," he says. "Let me read you the part I've been thinking about." He reads it quietly, voice low enough that it doesn't carry past the room. "Put out my eyes: and I shall see you, too, seal up my ears: and I shall hear you still, and without feet I yet can go to you,

And are Dan Simmons books in your rich assortment of mysticism? — Our classics are on the second floor, on the outermost shelf, right next to the stairs. And Simmons... we need to look in the database. Leah headed in that direction, determined to leave today with at least a couple of collectible collections of works, including the short stories: The Dunwich Horror, The Call of Cthulhu, The Murders in the Rue Morgue, and A Premature Funeral. She read them more than once, learning them practically by heart. However, after the move, the number of her books decreased sharply and almost all the works of Alan Edgar Allan Poe and Howard Lovecraft were cut. On the one hand, those books had become di

It wouldn’t do to embarrass myself in front of her. “Louis?” “I like to read.” I blurted out, “Me too, what’s on your nightstand?” She asked, resting her elbows on the table as she leaned forward. “Why don’t you come find out?” “Tease,” She said, leaning back. “Edgar Allan Poe.” Couldn’t tell her that it was a bottle of water, lube, and a pair of shiny handcuffs. I did enjoy Poe. That part wasn’t a lie. The book was just in the living room on the coffee table.

An hour later, after searching for anything to help us within books that ranged from brand new to hundreds of years old, I huffed with disappointment and decided to stretch my legs; my pale finger trailed over the spines of books, dust painting my fingertip. Once I reached the poetry section, I smiled brightly. All around me were books from Silvia Plath, Edgar Allan Poe, Emily Dickson, Robert Frost, and many others that were like my old friends. Taking a random book off the shelf, I flipped through its contents. "(...) Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home." ~ Tecumseh "You enjoy poetry too?" A familiar voice spoke behind me, making my heart speed up as I jumped slightly. Turn

I prompted. “I am reading the epic poems by the Fae Sage Yric of Cynraed, most particularly the Paragon of Theodghar and the Deceit of Elovyn.” “Poetry,” I sat back on my heels and regarded him in bemusement. The beautiful golden-haired man was absorbed in reading poetry, or all the unusual things for him to possibly be reading in a dragon’s cave, poetry had not even entered my speculative list. “I did not imagine you would read poetry.”
