Two unabridged audiobooks from Acoustic Learning bring classic tales by immortal author Edgar Allan Poe to life. " The Edgar Allan Poe Audiobook Collection #6-8: The Cask of Amontillado and Other Stories" (9780980058147, $19.99, 3 CDs, 3 hours 30 min.) presents Poe's dark stories "The Cask of Amontillado", "The Premature Burial", "Message Found in a Bottle", "The Oblong Box", "Liceia", "Eleonora", and "The Light-House". Recurring themes of death, grief, even murder and revenge haunt Poe's tales, which remain as suspenseful and chilling today as they were over a century ago. "The Edgar Allan Poe Audiobook Collection #9: The Pioneers" (9780980058154, $29.99, 6 CDs, 7 hours 32 min.) collects Poe's stories with common themes of intrepid exploration (and sometimes even science fiction): "Hans Pfaal", "The Journal of Julius Rodman", "The Balloon-Hoax", "Stonehenge", "The Isle of the Fay", "Harper's Ferry", "The Capitol at Washington", and "Morning on the Wissahickon". Both collections are superbly narrated by stage actor and radio artist Christopher Aruffo, and are enthusiastically commended especially to Poe fans and public library audiobook collections.
