I GOT MY LORD OF THE HIGHLANDS BOOK NA-NAH-NA-NAHMUFUAHHAHAA!!! (mucho evil laugh). I got it!! I had to go to a few places to find it but I got it!! I was getting really irritated because it seems I was always a day late and dollar short on getting the book! Thank the Lord (ahem) Barnes & Noble in Deptford had it. V...that quote before the prologue...brilliant. I love it. Added November 3rd, 2009 by bttrfly29

Hey V! Have you read/used for research 'Highland Scottish Folklore and Beliefs' by Calum MacLeod? I spotted it at the Book Depository site and wondered if you had used it. I haven't looked at it yet and it sounds great.

Lizzie, sorry I think I answered your post somewhere else but I will answer here too. I checked with Borders and would have had to place a special order which was almost double the cost of the book. That was through the store. The chap who served me also said I could purchase from Borders on-line cheaper. His idea of cheaper was a couple of dollars. So I eventually went through the Book Depository and purchased it for AUD$7.86. Free delivery worldwide. Usually the book would have been anywhere from AUD$12.95 up to AUD$16.95. I think I did well.

Oh Gayle the book depository is an excellent source for reading material! I am psyched that Sarah found my Castle book. But bummed too because I wanted to get it for her brand spanking new.

I can't wait until you get it. It has so many clans in it! I was shocked! 750 clans. Now Sarah do you think you can write a novel for each clan in the book? I challenge you! LOL!

Dear Veronica,
Your "Highlands" series is wonderful. I wish there were men like Ewen, Rollo, Alasdair, and James Graham around...I wish I could meet someone like that. The closest I have ever come to that was my dad. He could have matched these men, gone shoulder to shoulder with them. Sigh.
Hugs and love,
Tina
Live. love, laugh, learn--and feel the joy of the moment!

Hi Tina! Thank you so much for the kind words! I wish there were more men like that around too...that's why I wrote these stories. It was my way to go back in time and imagine I was getting a peek. Hugs right back at you! :)
