The Phantom of Manhattan is a 1999 novel by Frederick Forsyth that serves as a sequel to the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical adaptation of Gaston Leroux's The Phantom of the Opera. In The '90s, Lloyd Webber was developing a stage sequel to his biggest hit and he and Forsyth collaborated on a storyline for it. While plans for that show ultimately fell through, this novel has many story elements that would appear in Lloyd Webber's official sequel Love Never Dies in 2010, and Forsyth is given proper credit for those contributions.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Forsyth opens with a preface that examines the Direct Line to the Author approach of Leroux's work — and argues that he didn't properly research Erik's (the Phantom's) story, and that Lloyd Webber's version of it was much more plausible. From there, the story is told through the first-person viewpoints of different characters, switching with each chapter.In 1906 New York City, thirteen years after the events of Phantom, Erik Mulheim is now a wildly successful businessman. This is partially thanks to Darius, a wicked young man who serves as his public face — he worships "Mammon the god of gold" and has turned Erik into a fellow believer. Erik is preparing to open the Manhattan Opera House to indulge his love of the form when he receives a letter from Madame Giry, the woman who helped him escape the authorities over a decade prior...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Soon, no less than Europe's greatest soprano, Christine de Chagny, is announced to be making her first visit to America. She will perform at the Manhattan Opera House, in a new work by an anonymous composer. Why has Erik dared to once again risk the rejection of the one woman he ever loved? And how will his dare affect those around them?This novel contains examples of: | |
