THE TRIUMPHANT SEVENTH NOVEL IN THE MULTI-MILLION BESTSELLING OUTLANDER SERIES.

The year is 1777. The place, North Carolina. And as the American rebellion grows in intensity, Highlander Jamie Fraser and his wife Claire need to decide which side their family is going to be on.

The choice should be an easy one, given that Claire was born in the twentieth century and has already seen the future - in history books. But things are never simple where the Frasers are concerned, as father and son unwittingly come face to face on the battlefield, and an old adversary reaches forward in time to threaten the next generation.

Up to now, Claire and Jamie's love has survived every danger history has put in their path, but in the chaos of war, with families bitterly divided against each other, is the future finally going to catch up with them?

This book is a great read. If your into time traveling back 200 yrs to Scotland, then you will love this book, plus all the books that have come before this one. The characters come to life in your mind and in your heart as you become entwined in all their adventures, you will laugh, cry, be filled with anger and rage to happiness and the overwhelming love that all these characters create. I love the whole series and this is not the first time that I have read them. Wonderfully read.☺

There must be more.....

Reviewed in Australia on 5 February 2016

As usual, Diana Gabaldon has presented a fantastic book to her fans. The research is so thorough and her characters have such depth. The many threads to her plots are deftly woven together, leaping effortlessly between time and place. But more than this, we are so invested emotionally with the characters, that to come to the final chapter is a real wrench of the heart. Her legion of fans will be in an agony waiting for the promised future book. There is still so much more to tell historically and in the finer, personal stories of the many inhabitants of this series. Please enjoy the journey. It is a privilege to be allowed into the brilliant, imaginative world that exists in Diana's heart and mind.

I'm enjoying this series greatly but I'd like to see it come to a cl,ear ending. The next in the series turns out now isnt the last after all. This is disappointing to me, but the stories are great so I'll keep on reading.

Effectively written with multilingual words, to create moods and in keeping with periods in which characters dwelt, and some “in” snippets for devotees. Something for everyone adult.

I'm losing the plot slightly.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 July 2018

Verified Purchase

I have spent many many hours reading these huge tomes over the past 2 years and will probably read the next 2 but it's all getting a bit ridiculous. My 3 stars are generous. Anyone who has stuck with the series from The Fiery Cross onwards deserves a medal for perseverance . The books have become overlong and convoluted. Something was lost when Jamie and Claire left Scotland as I find all the American Revolution stuff very boring. The best part of this book is when they briefly go back to Scotland and revisit old haunts and characters. The rest is a long trawl through too many long forgotten threads and characters that reach no conclusion. After spending most of the book devoting pages and pages to battles, Lord John, Ian , Willie and a whole load of other guff the writer seems to remember her two main characters and throws in a plot where Claire thinks Jamie dead and is forced to marry Lord John for protection only for Jamie to return a month later. This story line is unnecessary and covered in so few pages it seems like an afterthought chucked in just to involve them a bit more. Why is this bit rushed when other plots go on for ever? It seems an irrelevant tangent to go off on and not in keeping with Claires character at all. And then the book just ends. Clearly to be continued but with so many plot threads hanging I was looking for a few more chapters and thinking "Is that it?" I hope the upcoming tv series 4, 5 and 6 find a way to adjust it and condense it into something more interesting. I fear the next 2 books will be much of the same. I'll still read them. I have the perseverance.

Diabolical

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 April 2019

Verified Purchase

First of all, if you're reading this and you've only read as far as book 3 (Voyager) then do yourself a favour and stop there.
Don't pick up another one of these books, just pretend that Diana's editor had the nerve to tell her to quit and that was that. As it is, this novel is another in a string of barely believable, contrived, overlong, turgid reads.
There is a phenomenal amount of pointless detail and minutia that could have been cut with no detriment to the plot, such as it is.
The actions of the main characters are often inconsistent with their previous behaviour and demonstrated personality, such that you begin to think that it's a series about body-swappers rather than time travel.
And then of course you have the now familiar desperately reaching plots that reek of a lack of imagination and a sheer disrespect for the integrity of the story and the intelligence of the reader.
For my sins, I've foolishly started reading the next book and within 80 pages I'm wishing I hadn't bothered. It actually gets worse, quite farcical in fact.
So don't make my mistake, stop after Voyager and remember the first few stories for the quality works that they are.
I've heard in recent interviews that DG doesn't care about what her readers think. If you've read this book, you'll realise that already,

Celebrating wildness

gets a bit boring, drawn out

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 October 2019

Verified Purchase

sorry to say, but books, as the series goes along, get quite tedious and boring with many characters, which are not needed. The only parts I still enjoy are the ones with Claire, her character is the strongest. I must admit I do skip through many parts now, as really not interested in them going here and there and everywhere, repetitive and I found when it came to BIG scenes and important events those were quickly skipped through rather than centering on them. The same feeling I had when I first started reading the books and it was the print shop scene that really didn't do it for me unfortunately. That effect of BIG events doesn't come through. The writing is wonderful don't get me wrong, as always, and I learn a lot from Diana, but stories get boring as it continues. I sort of feel I need to finish the books just to find out what the end is going to be.

It is a long book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 November 2020

Verified Purchase

The main reasons why I have not given up on the book is that it is a bit of escapism and I am still curious enough to find out where the plot is going. However, there’s little character development but lots of very detailed explanation of historic events/conflicts and medical procedures. So it’s often a slow read that makes me fall asleep very easily. Also, the language doesn’t seem to reach my heart at all which is strange as I tend to get emotionally involved in my characters when reading. I can’t find much beauty in the language - it’s all about the plot really. Well, I’ll finish it and I look forward to the characters coming alive on screen but I wouldn’t buy more books by this author.

Gripping storyline

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 May 2017

Verified Purchase

The storyline for this book is gripping from start to finish and the characters stand out as real people. I had great difficulty putting it down. The only quibble I had was that Diana writes that the task ahead was similar to, "Jeremiah being sent to Nineveh". It wasn't Jeremiah who was sent to Nineveh, it was Jonah!
