Blurb from GoodReads:

Varen Nethers is trapped in a perilous dream world -- a treacherous and desolate realm where the terrifying stories of Edgar Allan Poe come to life. Isobel Lanley, plagued by strange visions and haunted by the nightmares of Varen's creation, is the only one who can save him.
 

Isobel knows that her only hope lies within a Baltimore cemetery. There, in the early morning hours of Edgar Allan Poe's birthday, a mysterious stranger known as the "Poe Toaster" will make his annual homage at the legendary poet's grave.
 

Only the Poe Toaster holds the key to the way between worlds. But even greater dangers lie ahead for Isobel. An ancient evil, draped in veils of white, is watching, challenging her for Varen's affections. When Isobel finally finds Varen, he is no longer the quiet and brooding boy who once captivated her, but a dark force, powerful and malevolent.

My Thoughts:

I fell completely in love with the story of Nevermore, you can read my review here.  (Don't be too harsh, it was one of my first reviews I wrote for GoodReads!)  Dark and broody Varen had me mesmerized from the moment he wrote his phone number on Isobel's wrist (in purple no less!)  Goth-guy and Cheerleader thrown together?!! How can you resist such a story?! Mix in the sinister and dark dream world of Edgar Allan Poe and you have a winning combination. Nevermore left us hanging so cruelly on a major cliffhanger, so I've been desperate for the last two years to get my hands on this story!  I'm counting the days!
