Vol.2 of The Panharmonion Chronicles takes a darker, deeper dive into the alternative history of our World – many aspects of which, will resonates with today’s real events.

GHOSTS OF SOUND is the second volume in the epic saga THE PANHARMONION CHRONICLES created and written by Henry Chebaane. Alex Campbell in Edinburgh 1881 (illustration by Ariel Olivetti)

A gritty blend of science-fiction, horror and alternative history spliced with occasional wry humour and philosophical musings. Masterfully illustrated by veteran graphic artist Stephen Baskerville, this story continues the extraordinary adventures of time-travelling musician Alex Campbell, started in TIMES OF LONDON, the first volume of THE PANHARMONION CHRONICLES. 

The action now takes place between Scotland and Nova Scotia in 1881. 

Born from the ashes of the American Civil War and the activities of European colonial powers, the American republic of Varangia is now on a brutal conquest of Eastern Canada and beyond. Nothing seems able to stand in their path as they seek their manifest destiny, led by President Godwin Deblanc and the mystical order of the Immaculate Oblati. As they extend their reach, Varangia and its dominions are being turned into a patriarchal religious supremacy enabled by social control, wanton resource extraction and a powerful military-industrial complex.  

When Alex chooses to protect a group of trafficked women and children, she starts a chain of events with dreadful consequences for her and the people she seeks to protect. She now finds herself facing multiple threats and new horrors, while trying to cope with the many traumas haunting her.

WILL HER STORY END HISTORY?
