Music is the muse Issue One - The Interview edition | Seite 22
Book corner:
In each issue, I will feature books which were inspired by music. Even though it’s some
shameful self-promotion, I will start with my own books. After all, I’ve talked so much about
my writing so far, it’s only natural to give you an opportunity to see and judge for yourself. �
Midnight Lullabies and dark songs:
The headlines that chronicle Raoul Sinclair’s adventurous life in all its highs and lows often
overshadow his work. All the gossip and the rumours make you forget that he is first and
foremost an artist. A singer, passionate on stage and striving for perfection in the studio, but
also a song writer and a poet.
This book collects the lyrics from songs that span all of Raoul's career, from its sensational
beginnings with The Romeos, to The Dreaded Bliss and his solo work. Enjoy the journey into a
man's mind, who though plagued by darkness, despair and depression, has not only managed
to survive but to shine.
Shattered Tales: stories from the Mirror Walker universe:
In this collection of short stories set in the Mirror Walker universe, we learn more about
Raoul's mysterious past in Victorian England, then move forward in time to the year 2000.
There we meet some of Raoul's friends, characters all mentioned in Shattered, the first Mirror
Walker novel, who tell us about their illustrious past. Secrets are revealed, loves lost
remembered and decisions made as we join Francis O'Neal from Synthetic Symphonies, Kevin
Anderson, Tommy Johnson and others on a trip down memory lane. Of course, this being The
Mirror Walker universe, that road is both rocky, full of twists and turns and dark corners.
Do you dare to open the book and step into the mirror?
