* Recommended by [[Pheonix Reaper]]
* Writes brilliant, engaging fics, covers a wide range of genres and makes all of them work. An Erik/Raoul shipper (yes, that's slash).
 
Line 33:
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2788152/1/The_Conjurors_Masque The Conjuror's Masque]'' by Tytania Strange
* Recommended by Zerbinetta
* ''Synopsis'': Mayhem enters the [[Pot O]]PotO book as a Christine Daaé is murdered before she can make her debut, a waifish imposter claims her place and Erik seems to be undergoing a strange transformation... and it's up to Carlotta to solve the mystery.
* ''Comments'': This fic is wonderful, snarkily funny and filled with wonderful details about the life of an opera singer (Tytania Strange herself is a pro). Her interpretation of how Erik would turn out under these circumstances is also spot-on.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2456703/1/Koszcey Koszcey]'' by Phoenix Flame6
* Recommended by Elenor
* ''Synopsis'': Nadir will bring back the frenchman like he was ordered to. But a dinner out reveals a magician with more than a few tricks up his sleeve.
* ''Comments'': A nice little character piece of Erik's pre-Angel-of-Music days.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2233990/1/ See Christine Sing! Sing, Christine, Sing!]'' by Silver Whirl
* Recommended by [[Super Troper]], albinotiger
* ''Synopsis'': Phantom, in the Style of a Dick and Jane book.
* ''Comments'': Brilliant - wonderfully acute and it had me in stitches the whole way.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5712517/1/The_Phantom_of_Harrison_High The Phantom of Harrison High]'' by [[Bleeding Heart Conservative]]
* Recommended by albinotiger
* ''Synopsis'': Someone at Harrison HS has been reading POTO and taking it too seriously. About bullying, peer pressure, isolation, cruelty.
* ''Comments'': A great story with an excellent twist on the usual "POTO in high school" genre. Very touching, with an excellent PSA about bullying following the story.
 
[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3856634/1/Spare_Me_These_Unending_Trials Spare Me These Unending Trials] by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1204015/Petit_Parapluie Petit Parapluie]
Line 65 ⟶ 62:
* ''Pairings'': Erik/Christine, Raoul/Christine
* ''Synopsis'': It's 1870, and the Opera Populaire is gone. Those who survived that strange affair are left to struggle with its aftermath while war with Prussia approaches.
* ''Comments'': The summary above doesn't even begin to do this story justice. Dark, psychological, moving, and realistic. While researched extensively it never lectures. Everyone is not only in-character, but fleshed out in such a way that makes them feel even more human. Easily the best ''Phantom of the Opera'' sequel this troper has ever read. Hasn't updated in a few years though, so be warned. ETA: Now being actively updated again.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2391034/1/Cosi_Fan_Tutte Cosi Fan Tutte]'' by Ione
Line 71 ⟶ 67:
* ''Pairing'': Erik/Christine
* ''Synopsis'': A small town girl who hopes to one day write operas, Christine's life at the time involves day dreaming of her French teacher M. De Chagny and spending time with her best friend Meg. When she has a chance encounter in the library while looking for a opera book she doesn't know that she's caught the attention of a retired Phantom. Nor does she know that he's quite willing to kill to have her. After all, it's nothing he hasn't done before.
* ''Comments'': Very good in keeping in character in a modern setting.
** Read with care. This story is freaking creepy—and not in a good way.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2428303/1/The_Six_Months_of_Winter The Six Months of Winter]'' by Celestel
Line 78 ⟶ 72:
* ''Pairing'': Erik/Christine
* ''Synopsis'': Six months, that's how long Erik has left to live. And Christine agrees to be his wife for just six months. But is that amount of time too long, or too short.
* ''Comments'': A haunting story that doesn't end sugar coated, by may yet be happily ever after.
 
''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4221258/2/Mingled_Tears_Tales_of_a_Living_Wife Mingled Tears: Tales of a Living Wife]'' by bwayphantomrose
Line 84 ⟶ 77:
* ''Pairing'': Erik/Christine
* ''Synopsis'': Christine chooses to stay with Erik. A rich complex look at the characters and how they grow and change.
* ''Comments'': It was a true masterpiece! I followed - cheering, laughing, screaming, crying. It was, in the end, perfect.
