BRAVA!! Sadie has done it again! As soon as I received this book I was unable to put it down. You are immediately drawn back into the lives of our beloved Erik and Meg. This book continues where the second novel in the series, 'Out of the Darkness' left off. You are right there with Erik and Meg as they struggle to find one another again. You feel their joy, their pain and their heartache as you read page by page eagerly waiting to find out what lies ahead for our beloved Phantom and his 'Angel'.Book Review: Erik's Undying Love

Sadie has certainly outdone herself yet again.She never ceases to amaze me.Her books just get better and better and I can't put them down and when I'm done I'm upset because theres no more to read.I get so lost in the lives of Erik and Meg.I just love how Sadie works things around and keeps you on the edge and never disappoints you in the end.I highly recommend anyone who has seen Phantom of the Opera to read these books.The movie kinda leaves you guessing but Sadies books give you a whole new outlook on it all.Read the books I promise you, you won't be disappointed.Book Review: I'm Addicted!
Summary: 5 Stars
"The Phantom's Opera" is book 3 in Sadie Montgomery's "The Phoenix of the Opera" series. This book is as good as the first 2 and I was unable to put it down once I started it. Once again, we follow the adventures of Erik and Meg, Raoul and Christine, and those moving in and out of their lives. As with the other 2 books, the story is told from shifting perspectives, which give us a glimpse of each character's motivation, emotions and thoughts.
Erik and Meg are living in Italy, working in the new opera house built with Erik's participation. During a suspicious fire, Erik is presumed dead after rescuing those trapped within. But, he isn't dead! Having sustained a serious head injury, he awakens with no memory of who he is. Thinking that he is married to the woman who rescues him, he takes up what he thinks is his previous life. But he keeps having nightmares, about a beautiful blonde woman, and music that weaves in and out of his dreams. A woman he loves but cannot remember. A woman who isn't his wife! Feeling a restlessness he doesn't understand he returns to Rome, only to discover that his dream woman is the star of the Teatro dell'Opera. He is torn between what he feels is his duty to his wife, and his love for the beautiful diva.
I have become addicted to this series and cannot wait to see how the whole thing ends. It was so easy for me to feel the pain, love and frustration of these characters. I have begun to think of them as close friends. Ms. Montgomery has done a fantastic job of creating individuals that seem real, warm, haunted. I don't know if I will be satisfied with just 4 books in this series!
Book Review: Meg and Erik's story continues
Summary: 5 Stars
"The Phantom's Opera" is book 3 of the "Phoenix of the Opera" series, and is an excellent continuation of the story. Erik and Meg have settled in Rome, working at the opera house and living in the home of Erik's benefactor and adoptive father, Marcelo Costanzi. While Meg and the children are away in Paris visiting Raoul and Christine, a fire breaks out in the opera house, and Erik is presumed dead. When Erik awakens following the fire, he not only faces a painful recovery from his injuries, but also suffers from complete amnesia. He turns to the woman nursing him back to health for answers as to his identity and his past.
"The Phantom's Opera" sees the return of two pivotal characters from book 2, who have a history with Meg and Erik and their own selfish reasons for keeping them apart. It has been said that it takes an excellent writer to cause a reader to actively despise a villainous character and wish that character ill. Ms. Montgomery succeeds in creating not one, but two such characters.
