I’m excited to be teaming up with Pique Beyond once again as a VIP Reader/Ambassador for their upcoming new YA release, The Raven’s Tale by Cat Winters — which follows a young Edgar Allan Poe and the Muse named Lenore that inspires him.
Seventeen-year-old Edgar Poe counts down the days until he can escape his foster family—the wealthy Allans of Richmond, Virginia. He hungers for his upcoming life as a student at the prestigious new university, almost as much as he longs to marry his beloved Elmira Royster. However, on the brink of his departure, all his plans go awry when a macabre Muse named Lenore appears to him. Muses are frightful creatures that lead Artists down a path of ruin and disgrace, and no respectable person could possibly understand or accept them. But Lenore steps out of the shadows with one request: “Let them see me!”
