Die Zauberflöte

About this book

Sarastro kidnaps the beautiful but naive Pamina, whose mother is the Queen of the Night. Understandably upset, the Queen commands Prince Tamino to rescue her daughter, but while Tamino soon falls in love with Pamina, he also comes to believe that the Queen who commands him is the real villain, not Sarastro.
