By Gaston Leroux
Most people have heard of The Phantom of the Opera, but that is because of Andrew Lloyd Weber's Enchanting musical.
Not many know about this book. Or that the there once was a Phantom of the opera.
This book was written by a french author who heard about the Phantom and thought to make a book of it.
The
books mainly follows Raoul, the young Vicomte de Chagny, who was
Christine's childhood sweetheart. He is still madly in love with
Christine, but something has changed since he last knew her.
Christine
is somewhat of a hostage to the Phantom. She wants so badly to please
her angel of music that she has trapped herself in a tangled up mess of
fiction and truth.
I enjoyed this book, I thought it
was well writtenv(it was a translation though, I can't read complete
french yet) But I enjoyed. I will probably have to read it again to
truly understand everything that goes on. But I know enough to know I
like it.
