In the Eye of the Beholder by Sharon E. Cathcart

It was ok. Erik was just too different from what I remember. I remember him being guarded, and a bit arrogant in the original by Gaston Leroux, but there were just times when he just cruel towards Claire.  I found myself rooting for the heroine- Claire though; after everything she'd been through - being an over thirty independent thinker in a society that doesn't value women, losing her father and having to have and unknown male relative control her assets, losing her fiancee

, and then putting up with Erik, how could I not?! I'd most certainly recommend this one to POTO fans. It was nice to read a "sequel" and for those wondering how Erik fared after Christine Daae, might feel like they've gotten some sort of closure.
