This one attempts to embroil 6 and Mel into a series of imaginary death-traps based on the works of Edgar Allen Poe but ultimately only provided a pale pastiche with none of the depth of the original writing. There were one or two mildly clever gags in it (Edgar Alien Poe, for example) , but they were largely wasted. Ultimately, I was left disappointed and with the feeling that somewhere in the universe there must be a much better tale of Poe's mysterious final days.

Besides that, this adventure doesn’t offer a lot unless you’re a mega fan of both Poe and season 23 era Sixie Like Liked 0 29 April 2024 · 159 words Review by CommanderBayban 2 The premise was interesting, but this was way too long for my liking and nothing really stood out. Every scene blended with the previous one, despite each main arc following a different Poe story. If each arc had a distinct shift in atmosphere and tone, there wouldn’t have been a need for the narrator to literally spell out the title of each new Poe story as they switched into new worlds. It seemed a bit amateurish in that regard. I don’t know why this wasn't written as a Peri story as Poe was from Baltimore. Would that be too on the nose? Probably. But what’s wrong with that? I think if Peri was involved, it would've sustained my interest a bit more, because Mel and Six seemed to be going through the motions together. I'm not sure why, in a set that was meant to celebrate S22, there was so much Mel in the first place. Like Liked 2 Open in new window Statistics AVG. Rating21 members 3.02 / 5 GoodReads AVG.
