Remembered for historical fiction rooted in Wales and the Marches, this author is associated with Star of Mercia, a collection of historical tales. Little biographical information appears to be readily available online, which gives the work an added air of mystery.

by Blanche Devereux
Available catalog records identify Blanche Devereux as the author of Star of Mercia: Historical Tales of Wales and the Marches. From that title alone, the writing seems centered on regional history and storytelling, with a clear interest in the past and in the Welsh borderlands.
Beyond that, confirmed personal details are scarce in the sources I could find. Rather than guess, it is safer to say that Blanche Devereux appears to be a little-documented author whose surviving public footprint is tied mainly to this historical work.
That relative obscurity may even be part of the appeal for curious listeners: the focus stays on the stories themselves, and on the atmosphere of legend, place, and history suggested by the book.
