Synopsis

Join the Phantom, Christine and Raoul in this unabashedly romantic sequel to one of the best loved stories of all time!

This sequel to Gaston Leroux's Phantom of the Opera begins just after Christine and Raoul leave the Phantom in his lair in the basement of the Opera House. After faking his own death to escape the Paris authorities, the Phantom sets out to find Christine again, eventually following her and Raoul to London. When a crazed maniac begins his killing spree not far from Christine's home, her life may be in danger... In the ultimate test, will the Phantom put his life and his freedom at risk for his love?

And will Christine -- desperate for song (which her husband, Raoul, has forbidden in his jealousy) -- finally open her heart to the Phantom, as he desires?

Review

For Love of the Phantom is the first in the Phantom Rising series written by Davyne DeSye. Beginning exactly where the original Phantom of the Opera had ended, Erik's regret in losing Christine is so deep that he chooses to pursue her once more after she has left. When Jack the Ripper starts his murderous rampage, Christine's safety quickly becomes Erik's only focus, regardless of what he must sacrifice.

Davyne DeSye kept true to the style of Phantom of the Opera in writing this wonderful sequel. For Love of the Phantom takes into account every aspect of the original tale, while taking Erik, Christine and Raoul across the globe. Erik's love for Christine is timeless and without limits. For Love of the Phantom does not rehash too much of the original story, and I therefore suggest that readers first read the story of Erik and Christine in the book (or film) Phantom of the Opera prior to reading For Love of the Phantom, in order to gain full enjoyment and understanding of this tale. I recommend this book to all fans of Phantom of the Opera and to those who believe in unbridled true love.
