Manifestations of a Phantom's Soul: A Duet

Manifestations of a Phantom's Soul: A Duet offers two novels by author Michelle Rodriguez that portray the power and passion behind the timeless story of the Phantom of the Opera. In "Rib-Caged Hearts", Erik realizes that he has a valid chance to win Christine's heart as his forever. But as a rival from his past returns to taunt him and forces him to realize the sort of future he has to offer, he makes a seemingly selfless choice and is forced to suffer the consequences of callously giving true love away. As a new Opera Ghost rises to the throne, will Erik find a second chance at a heart he broke to pieces? Can he rewrite his definition of monster and instead play the hero to save Christine from the new ghost's wrath? And in "Unconditional", after the final events at the opera house, Erik regrets a choice that sent Christine off with her Vicomte. For months, he seeks her out, desperate to repair his mistake. Will he be too late when he finally finds her? Will his past transgressions taint a love he could have had, or will Christine teach him the true meaning of unconditional love?
