Just last night I was thinking about how much I enjoyed Mary Stewart’s novels when I was younger. Imagine my surprise when seven (!) of the novels came up as e-book bargains today.
I would describe the author’s books, which were originally published over fifty years ago, as romantic suspense at its best, with a literary flair. The flair is seen in the quotes that head up each chapter. Each novel is a standalone and each takes place in a location that you will enjoy visiting, for example, Provence or Corfu or Crete or the Pyrenees.
I am looking forward to re-reading some of these novels. They seem like the perfect antidote as holiday stress comes into play…and by the way, the covers are so gorgeous!
As a teen I really loved her Merlin series, though I didn’t read her Gothic romances until I was older. She is a great author, I agree!

I also enjoyed the Merlin series. I think I mentioned this before but if you like books about Merlin, Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, etc, I really enjoyed The Mists of Avalon and The Once and Future King.

Yep, they are both on my TBR, if I ever have time to get to them!
