Phantom Song by Kate Sheeran Swed
“The new ballet dancer entered from the wrong wing tonight,” she said-slash-sang, switching on the apartment’s news holo as she passed through the living room. She loved to fill her home with layers of background noise, constant streams of chatter over music over more chatter. She had no trouble flitting around or holding conversations without paying attention to any of it.
Sam, on the other hand, could never fully tune out the babble of voices. He tended to get pulled in. But Aunt C had given him a place to stay, and he didn’t feel right complaining.
She bustled into the kitchen and set her bags on the counter without glancing at him, removing containers that smelled like chicken and peanut sauce, with a tang of something peppery.

I wasn’t expecting a ballet dancer in a sci-fi read… lol… Happy Valentine’s weekend!
HCNewton
Me either. Not where I thought this sequel would go

I love that this has a Phantom of the Opera vibe to it. And in a science fiction novel to boot! I need to check out this series. I hope Phantom Song was a great read for you! Have a great weekend!

Book 1–Great Expectations, Book 2–Phantom, this is not the SF trilogy one would expect.

I’m going to have to look into this one. It sounds pretty good. 🙂

Book 1 was pretty good, looking forward to diving in to this one.

Huh…that threw me off. I was not expecting to read a ballet dancer with such a sci-fi looking cover.
HCNewton
Last thing I expected to read, too.
