The Phantom of Paris, by Gwenith M. Vehlow

Has anybody else here read it?

"Books? You want books?! Ha! We've got books on hairy otters, on onions and on mars! All the fungus you could care for, plus, three triple zillion stars. We've got books on flossing teeth, plus three books on tossing sheep. If we spent our lives just counting books, we'd never get to sleep!" -Leopold the Librarian ("The Great Wishy Woz")

The Phantom of Paris, by Gwenith M. Vehlow

Post by Kris Doyle »

The Phantom of Paris is a Christian sequel to Phantom of the Opera. It was published by Publish America a few years ago, and I was impressed when I read it! I know I'm prejudiced (because Gwenith is my cousin), but my relatives and I aren't the only ones who like it. Really, it's great.
As some of you know, at the end of Phantom of the Opera, Eric (the deformed man who called himself the Opera Ghost) was believed to be dead, and the characters Raoul and Christine were about to marry. In The Phantom of Paris, Christine discovers evidence that Eric may still be alive! She finds herself missing him and goes down below the Opera House to see if he really is there. But I can't say anything else without ruining the surprise of a good story for those who haven't read it.
Has anyone on the ToO read it (besides me)? If so, what do you think about it?
God bless you, in Jesus' name!!!! :D

There is also a sequel by a good friend of Andrew Lloyd Webber called "Phantom of Manhattan".

Hadn't heard about it until you mentioned it but it sounds very interesting.
