"One of those rare stories that just seem to grab your interest and make you part of the story, not just a reader. The combination of history, intrigue, drama and romance, not to mention TIME TRAVEL....AWESOME!!." - Raewynn Osborne <h2>Music is not bound by time... </h2> And Adeena Stuart is not bound by anything that will stop her from saving the man she's fallen in love with, even though he's been dead for almost three hundred years. In Book II of the Song for a Lost Kingdom trilogy, her music provides the portal to to James Drummond who is fighting along side Prince Charles Edward Stuart in the 1746 Jacobite uprising. Though their cause is doomed, and James is destined to die shortly after the Battle of Culloden, Adeena's determination never wavers. Left behind in the present, Adeena's friends and families are equally determined to return her to 2019 before the expanding growth in her head becomes fatal and they lose her forever. Throughout it all, the music sweeps across those in both the past and present in this novel of history, fantasy, romance and science fiction. Love never surrenders. "This story grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go!" - Marti Panikkar "Adeena undergoes what seems more like a genuine experience.&nbsp; It takes medical and psychological impact into consideration. Anyone can have an idea, but in the hands of a superior writer, a concept can be explored more completely with greater depth. That's what you have done." - Sarita Talmidah "The relationships between the characters are getting so intense!&nbsp; I found myself mentally yelling at William and Jackie -NO!&nbsp; DON"T DO IT!&nbsp; I know that Adeena (love her resolve) and James are the lead characters, but you're making the supporting cast so interesting that towards the end of the book I wasn't sure whether I liked being in the 18th or the 21st century as both story line were engrossing." - Diane Craig "So, I'm back from my long weekend (went and got in some screen-free backpacking time!) and throughout the duration of the trip, my mind kept wondering back to this narrative. It's captured my imagination!" - Emily Knott "Addictive and brilliant! I was pulled into the lives of these complex characters and by the end became fully invested in their plights. I absolutely loved the ending and can not wait to see how this new situation progresses." - Nevine Ramirez

He changed ballet forever. And hid his wounds even longer. 
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky was a tortured soul. Bestowed with a rare musical gift, but burdened by demons of self-doubt and passions forbidden in 19th century Russia, Pyotr struggled to release the music inside his head. 
And equally, to find romantic fulfillment that always remained just beyond his reach. He was deeply affected by the women in his life – those he loved, those he despised, and those whose affection he longed so badly to hold. Yet, aside from music, his truest passion was reserved only for men. 
Tchaikovsky refused to abide by the rules of the musical establishment of his time. Assailed by critics as being ‘neither Russian nor German,’ he endured scathing criticism which he often took to heart, destroying many of his own ‘imperfect’ compositions. 
This compelling new work takes you inside the head of Pyotr – from age seven to his untimely death at fifty-three. It also provides a layman’s guide to his music and his musical influences, and the techniques Tchaikovsky used to chart his musical destiny. 
Reader comments:\n“I love it! It's moving and makes me want to hear the music.”\n“You cry out in anguish as your mother and sisters disappear in to the distance, leaving you all alone in a strange place, at such a tender young age; or wince in pain with lashings from the tutor.”\n“As a musician myself, I nodded in understanding as Pyotr describes how the music of Mozart moves him to tears, while the notes appear as pictures in his mind.”\n“I appreciated the intimate focus on Pyotr.” 
“I felt compelled to play some Tchaikovsky after reading this, and settled on the first movement of the Manfred symphony.” 
Go behind the scenes and journey into the life and music of one of the world’s most popular composers with Pyotr - The Life and Music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
