Nora Roberts has a gift that is rare and seemingly effortless. She has the ability to create atmosphere, characters and storylines which are immediate, enjoyable and enable the reader to get lost in the world she has so skillfully drawn. In "Mysterious", you will read three of her earlier novels, thankfully available to those of us who missed them the first time round. In "This Magic Moment" we meet an illusionist who captures the heart of Ryan, who learns to trust her heart and believe in the impossible. "Search for Love" tells the story of Serenity, a young woman searching for a way to reclaim her family in France's Brittany landscape, where she meets the cold, enigmatic Christophe. In "The Right Path" we are drawn into the intrigue surrounding a Greek island, smuggling and a handsome knife-wielding stranger. These are three short, but enjoyable reads and still sparkle with the magic only Nora can create.

Old tales retold
4 Aug 2003
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This anthology brings back three old stories by Ms. Roberts, THIS MAGIC MOMENT, SEARCH FOR LOVE, and THE RIGHT PATH. The writing is as compelling as ever but the stories are a bit dated and not quite as good as Roberts current works. For pure romance they work, but don't look for the edge of your seat suspense and sharp plotting of her more current novels. Perhaps the new title is what bothers me- MYSTERIOUS these stories are not.

Early Nora Roberts novels...
3 Sep 2003
Format:Paperback
...are no match for the ones she's writing now. I picked up this collection because I was desperate for some light reading. I got it, but didn't quite have as much fun as I often do when reading NR. The first and third novels are entertaining, if unamazing. The characters were likeable enough, and the stories flowed well. The setting in the third story (a Greek island) is great. However, I pretty much hated the middle novel. I didn't really like any of the characters, and the romance turned my stomach -- I wanted to shake the "heroine" and tell her to punch the "hero," not kiss him. Oh well. My guess is that these novels (which, by the way, are not all that mysterious) were reprinted simply so the publisher could cash in on readers' love for Nora Roberts. There are NR novels from the '80s that are worth reading -- I liked the two in Irish Hearts, and I'm quite fond of Sacred Sins and Brazen Virtue. Sacred Sins is especially good if you're looking for mystery (Brazen Virtue falls more into the category of suspense). Homeport is another great NR mystery. Don't bother with Mysterious.

Please Nora, write something new!
17 Aug 2003
Format:Paperback
I would rather go without reading for a long time than pick up one of these warmed-over, dated, irritating books. I know the publishing company is looking to make every cent they can on their star authors but they are turning off future N.R. readers. I can tell you, if this had been the first Nora Roberts book I read, I would never, ever, ever have read another.
