It had been decades since I had read any Mary Stewart and this book makes me think that I need to revisit her books -- This was such a wonderful, involving read! This was old fashioned storytelling at its very best. I had a lot on my mind when I began reading this book and within a few paragraphs I left all my troubles behind and disappeared into the magical world of Thornyhold...not that many books can do that! I read hundreds of books a year and this is the rare one that I am going to keep for my keeper shelf to continue to enjoy over the years.
