Holy moley. I have to wait how long now??? As usual, so much happened in this one. I was so happy that Ian found love again. I loved the split stories between 1770s America and 1980s Scotland. Though I don't love all the unfinished threads in this one. Some threads were finished, but SO many at the ...

I have been faithfully reading the Outlander series for several years, and while I stil think Diana Gabaldon is a GREAT storyteller, I have to admit, I'm getting a bit weary of how the series is being dragged out. For one thing, I've lost count of how many times Claire and Jamie have been in peril ...

Loved this one, especially the different stories going on at the same time. Can not wait for the final book to come out and see how it all ends.

Feb 2012: 4+ stars (2nd read)I finally read the entire book this time!

Strong finish! Yes, there is a bit of meandering as is usual with the Outlander books. It's filled with impossible coincidences, how could the Hunters be so tightly tied to the Frasers and the Greys? And when and where did Rachel and Ian manage to develop feelings for each other? But Echo manag...

Long book is LONG! Worth it though. I'd have to say that this is probably better than both book 5 and 6. Wasn't quite as heart wrenching, and for once Gabaldon gave her characters a bit of a break. Not much though... otherwise it wouldn't be her!One of the weaknesses of the later books is that Gabal...

I am actually a little confused right now, having finished what I thought was the last book about Jamie and Claire, Brianna, Roger, Jem and Mandy... This book did not at all have any final rings to it! And I am wondering if the Lord John Grey books have more about my new friends...I did like this ...
