Fiona Robertson is a writer, editor, and author of Stone Lands (Telegraph and Waterstones Best Book of 2025), inspired by a lifelong passion for megaliths.
From Avebury to Brittany, she has explored standing stones across Britain and beyond, combining personal journeys with her work commissioning books on folklore and the mystical past. Following her husband’s cancer diagnosis, these ancient monuments took on deeper meaning, symbolising endurance, memory, and love. Fiona now works as a freelance writer and editor, celebrating life’s fragility and wonder.
