About this listen

Erik was not always known as the Phantom of the Opera. For the first years of his life he had no name at all.

Forced to flee his home and his mother’s murderous rage when he removes his mask, his greatest desire is to be loved for himself. At the tender age of seven, he must fight for survival in a hostile world where the threat of starvation is the least of the abuses he suffers. Yet, time and again, in his naivety, he extends trust to someone he believes can fill his need for affection and acceptance. Betrayed in every instance, his anger grows.

After decades of being persecuted for his hideous face across Europe and Asia, he returns to his home country of France. Angry, disillusioned and without hope, he makes his home in the cellars of the Paris Opera House, determined to hide from the world forever...until a young girl named Christine captures his attention.

He is one of the most unforgettable characters in history - both loved and feared for the chaos he created in the Paris Opera House. Now, the story of his childhood is revealed.

Enthralling!

Phantom Rising is a brilliantly pend series, a haunting and riveting tale, and the continuation of Gaston Leroux's masterpiece, the Phantom of the Opera. Davyne DeSye creativity, vivid imagery, beautiful words, and expressions pulled me entirely into Erik and Christine's world. Erik and Christine are captivating characters, complex, authentic with genuine emotional depth. In each instalment, their relationship with one another becomes more profound, revealing a hidden layer to their disposition. Their story is enthralling and emotional, woven in mystery, secrets, intrigue, suspense, passion, and desire. Its evident DeSye has done extensive research on topics of history and culture, delving deep into the plot and character development. I found it utterly impressive.

Davyne DeSye's narration of her book is outstanding. She knows her characters and depicts them flawlessly for her audience, making the story even more engaging. Phantom Rising is rich and enthralling, one I'm highly recommending.
