Neil Gaiman reads "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe

The Worldbuilders charity passed a very big stretch goal for 2016 (one million dollars!), so today Neil Gaiman read a poem chosen for him by the charity: Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Raven.” Surrounded by candles, a flickering fire, and wearing the coat of a murdered prince of Stormhold, Gaiman is here to make the changing seasons more atmospheric for fans everywhere.

Get your cocoa and/or tea ready….

The Worldbuilders fundraiser is still going, for those who would like learn more and donate. You can find them at worldbuilders.org.
