Official Soundtrack to Absolution

Since Absolution is as done as I can get it, I want to share the soundtrack. Each song is a chapter title, as is the title of the novel.

Enjoy the songs. I have such a varied taste in music, so I knew it was going come through the novels.

I have a Pandora playlist entitled “Writing Music” which has all sorts of songs, most will make it in all the books of this series.

Some songs are covers because they had the feeling that better suited that chapter. A good example is “Enjoy the Silence”. Tori Amos’ cover was more like a mother singing to her child. Which is exactly why I picked it.
