He wrote a nice little author's note at the beginning of the book which is basically pages of bashing Gaston Leroux and kissing ALW's ass. Also, the Phantom dies at the end of the book so there really isn't... room for a sequel... and it just needs one so badly, you know?
Mostly it reminds me of your story because reading it is like taking the premise of at least 50% of the Phantom fanfic written by 13-year-old girls who just saw the movie and think the Phantom is soooo hoooot and then just having a professional author write it as if it's a brilliant idea. I can't talk too much about it or I'm prone to RANDOM FITS OF VIOLENCE.
Also: I think the cover is to make you WISH you were reading gay robot porn instead :)
