A Retelling?
Yes please!
In this modern day spinoff of Leroux’s gothic tale of unrequited love turned to madness, seventeen-year-old Rune Germaine has a mysterious affliction linked to her operatic talent, and a horrifying mistake she’s trying to hide.
Hoping creative direction will help, Rune’s mother sends her to a French arts conservatory for her senior year, located in an opera house rumored to have ties to The Phantom of the Opera. At RoseBlood, Rune secretly befriends the masked Thorn -- an elusive violinist who not only guides her musical transformation through dreams that seem more real than reality itself, but somehow knows who she is behind her own masks.
As the two discover an otherworldly connection, a soul-deep romance blossoms. But when Thorn’s dark agenda comes to light, he’s forced to make a deadly choice: lead Rune to her destruction, or face the wrath of the phantom who has haunted the opera house for a century, and is the only father he’s ever known.
I love this cover, I love that it's similar to the Splintered series, they will look fantastic on my shelf ;) I adore Howard's gorgeously eerie writing, if anyone can mix fantasy and horror together it's her. I'm so excited to see how she rewrite's/retell's A Phantom of the Opera, it's sure to be fascinating.
So, what do you guys think of the cover?
WHAT WHAT WHAT HOW COULD I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS omg I love the phantom of the opera and I love splintered and that cover omg! I can't be more excited for this book!

DeleteWhat is life? I need this now. How dare them reveal this cover and then tell me oh by the way it doesn't come out until next year. Boo!
ReplyDeleteI know right? It's so cruel that we won't have this beauty until next year :(
DeleteWow I love this cover. When I first saw it, I thought it was the next book in the Splintered series. Wow that's so deceiving!!! I can't wait to see this one when it comes out. The cover is so fantastic!!

I know right? It's so similar but I strangely like that. I usually like different series by authors to have crazy different covers, I can't wait for it :D
