Kate, Michael, and Emma have passed from one orphanage to another in the ten years since their parents disappeared to protect them, but now they learn that they have special powers, a prophesied quest to find a magical book, and a fearsome enemy.

"In the final book of the Books of beginning trilogy, Kate and Michael must help the magical world prepare for the final war against the Dire Magnus, while Emma must travel to find the final book--the Book of the Dead"-- Provided by publisher.

A beautifully illustrated graphic novel of what might have happened if we were privy to a journal written by E. A. Poe and the macabre tales, stories of the paranormal, the horrific gift of imagination, and the real cost of pure creativity to his personal life.
