THE SIXTH NOVEL IN THE BESTSELLING OUTLANDER SERIES.
DIANA GABALDON is the author of the international bestselling
Outlander novels and Lord John Grey series.
She says that the Outlander series started by accident- 'I decided
to write a novel for practice in order to learn what it took to
write a novel, and to decide whether I really wanted to do it for
real. I did - and here we all are trying to decide what to call
books that nobody can describe, but that fortunately most people
seem to enjoy.'
And enjoy them they do - in their millions, all over the world.
Published in 42 countries and 38 languages, in 2014 the Outlander
novels were made into an acclaimed TV series starring Sam Heughan
as Jamie Fraser and Caitriona Balfe as Claire. The series has now
been renewed for a fifth and sixth season.
Diana lives with her husband and dogs in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Gripping.
*OK!*
The sixth instalment of the adventures of Claire and Jamie Fraser,
already number one on the bestseller list, is a whopping 980 pages
of action-packed escapism. It also has surprisingly melancholy and
insightful views on the experience of growing old and dealing with
the losses that entails... One of the things that sets Gabaldon
apart from other romance writers is exhaustive research of the
times in which her characters live, so evident in her attention to
period detail.... plot lines and stand-alone yarns are expertly
woven together with the overall theme of impending doom and the
question of predetermination.
