The first book I read of Mary Stewart's was The Little Broomstick which was given to me as a child. It was one of my earliest re-read books. I lost my original in a house move and it was out of print for years. When it was eventually re-printed I immediately snapped up a copy and also bought a couple for children of friends.

It is a wonderful little book which would appeal to Harry Potter fans. It is deliciously dark like the best old fairy tales. It is not available as an ebook alas, but I am going to convert my paper copy at some point.

Nine Coaches Waiting was the first of her romantic suspense novels that I read in my teens. It remains a favourite and I also have a soft spot for Madam, Will You Talk.

I have read the Merlin books but they didn't appeal to me as much. I am not sure if I will buy the ebooks to replace my paper copies.

I did buy most of her romantic suspense ebooks from Kobo earlier in the year - that magic Kobo code, sigh.
