A review by nickmasters
The Paris Mysteries by Edgar Allan Poe

3.0

At least I can now say I have read Edgar Allan Poe.

Look, there was some interesting writing, and interesting detective work, but a lot of it seemed like ramblings to me. Having said that, I do appreciate that this was penned in the early 1800's and that what I read was the inception of the detective genre. For that alone it deserves to be held up high.

Thank you NetGalley and Pushkin Press for a review copy.
