I just found Valancourt Books and their wonderful editions and I've been having a blast. <BR/><BR/>As for Holt, I have a sentimental attachment to the <I>Shivering Sands</I> because it is the first Victoria Holt I ever read -- when I was about fifteen at my grandmother's house. As much as I like the new editions, I don't need them since I have all my grandmother's Victoria Holts in my library now.<BR/><BR/>...Although, I have other books where I have collected a copy to Save and also one to Read, hmmmmmm....Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02790012757391157680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19307003.post-12104813793007318742007-02-11T16:03:00.000-06:002007-02-11T16:03:00.000-06:00Of course they re-print Victoria Holt's most borin...Of course they re-print Victoria Holt's most boring book! They couldn't have chosen "The Demon Lover" or "On the Night of the Seventh Moon", or "Devil on Horseback" or "The Landower Legacy"? But I like the covers as well!
