The infinity concerto
Greg BearMichael Perrin is an aspiring poet, struggling to express the chaotic
cadences of his thoughts on paper. He finds a kindred spirit in Arno
Waltiri, the film score composer behind several of Michael's favorite
classic movies. The maestro's greatest piece, however, was performed in
front of a live audience only once. The concerto Opus 45, Infinity left its listeners entranced, altered to the very core of their souls.
Waltiri's composition is a song of power. Never meant to be heard by
human ears, its melody is as captivating as a siren's call; its notes
ring out like a death knell; and its rhythms shake the very foundations
of reality.
The music's otherworldly tones have led Michael through the gate
between Earth and the Realm of the Sidhedark, where faeries reign by
rule of magic—and where Michael must find his muse if he's ever to
return home.
