The work of which Eleanor Hibbert pseudonym is your favorite?

Post by Lil Reads »

Eleanor Hibbert wrote under several pseudonyms, but some are less well known or several books under one name are now out of print.

So what is your favorite pseudonym?

Jean Plaidy - historical fiction; almost one hundred books

Victoria Holt - gothic revival; around thirty books

Philippa Carr - "Daughters of England"; twenty books

Eleanor Burford - romances; twenty books

Elbur Ford - modern crime; 4 books

Kathleen Kellow - historical fiction; many were republished under Plaidy

Ellalice Tate - these were republished under Plaidy

Anna Percival - The Brides of Lanlory was the only book published under Tate

Thanks for this post, as a teenager I loved Victoria Holt and Jean Plaidy but I don't think I knew they were the same author! Georgette Heyer was another favorite that my mom introduced me to. We once thought we'd "caught her out" when one of her characters described receiving an electric-like shock in a Regency period setting. But a bit of research with our local librarian (pre-internet days) uncovered that the expression was genuinely used long before electricity was in commonplace use.
