Kurztext

Im Rom des 17. Jahrhunderts wird ein Knabe von außergewöhnlicher Schönheit geboren, der als Jüngling durch seine glasklare Stimme auffällt. Bei einer Festmesse im Petersdom wird Papst Urban VIII. auf seine schöne Stimme aufmerksam und schickt ihn zur Stimmausbildung nach Neapel. Bei seinem ersten öffentlichen Auftritt in Florenz, begegnet er dem mächtigen Kardinal Stefano Albizzi, der seiner Schönheit erliegt und mit ihm eine Liebesbeziehung beginnt.

Dem Autor Günther Peer gelingt es in dieser dramatischen und tragisch anmutenden Erzählung, die Leiden der päpstlichen Sängerknaben mit viel Spannung und Selbstbesinnung zu erzählen.

Über den Autor

Der Tiroler Schriftsteller Günther Peer ist durch sein umfangreiches literarisches Schaffen weit über die Region hinaus bekannt. Unter dem Titel „Die verbotene Liebe des Kastraten“ erschien sein dritter historischer Roman. Er ist ein Kenner der Kirchengeschichte und behandelt in seinem literarischen Werk regelmäßig Themen wie Papsttum, Ordensleben, Zölibat und Gottglaube.

Seine Darstellungen zeichnen sich durch detailgetreue Schilderungen aus, da er persönlich als Zeremonienmeister fungiert hat und als Mönch mit zeitlichen Gelübden in einer Benediktinerabtei gelebt hat.

Get Them Excited to READ
Format: Paperback
I bought this book for my daughter's 8th birthday. She reads on a mid-third grade level and I needed some chapter books that would hold her interest. She is big on starting books but they "bore" her and don't hold her attention for 100 pages of text. I thought I'd buy her a couple of "starter" books so if she liked them we could continue the series. She is really into Monster High right now so I thought this series might interest her. I was right. She has told me daily how much she enjoys this books and actually looks forward to her 20 minute reading time both at home and at school. Every night during bath time she tells me what she read that day. As a book lover I am so excited to see her finally showing some interest in reading! I knew if I found the right material I could get her hooked.

... 8 year old son is having a lot of fun with this book
Format: Paperback
My 8 year old son is having a lot of fun with this book. It has a good balance of illustration and text. He has struggled to read and is considered average for his age. We have tried to get him interested in a series and have purchased many other books. Since reading Haunted library #1 he has requested the next book in the series. He also likes the Yeti files and is waiting on pins and needles for the next in that series to be released. It is such a relief to finally get him excited about reading!

Engaging
Format: Paperback
We love this entire series. We had read book 3 first & my 8 year old loved it so much we bought the rest of the series. There’s enough of a cliffhanger that you want to know who he finds next in his family.
