"This queer sequel to the Leroux novel...is absolutely gorgeous and powerful." - "In this Labyrinth: Getting to the Heart of The Phantom of the Opera" Podcast Dear Reader, I must confess, I have discovered firsthand that my conclusions in my previously published work, The Phantom of the Opera, were false. Oh, the Opera ghost was real, as I first asserted; he lived and breathed in the Paris Opera House and haunted the inhabitants for many years in the precise methods I set to paper. I was false, however, in believing his ruse of the skeleton buried near a cellar with a golden ring... Now, I will relate to you the continued story of the Opera ghost, of which I have pieced together the facts with painstaking integrity and delved into the sweeping emotions of love and redemption and madness in turns. With humblest gratitude, Gaston Leroux K. E. Torwood is a pseudonym for author Katherine Forrister. Forrister is the author of Lodestone, The Hand-Me-Down Maiden, and Curio Citizen.
