THE THIRD NOVEL IN THE BESTSELLING OUTLANDER SERIES, NOW A HIT TV SHOW

Jamie Fraser is lying on the battlefield of Culloden, where he rises wounded, to face execution or imprisonment. Either prospect pales beside the pain of loss - his wife is gone. Forever.

But sometimes forever is shorter than one thinks. In 1746, Claire Fraser made a perilous journey through time, leaving her young husband to die at Culloden, in order to protect their unborn child. In 1968, Claire has just been struck through the heart, discovering that Jamie Fraser didn't die in battle.

But where is Jamie now? With the help of her grown daughter, Claire sets out to find the man who was her life - and might be once again.

hor of the breathtaking bestsellers Outlander and Dragonfly in Amber, the extraordinary saga continues.

Oh Editor. Where Art Thou?

Reviewed in Australia on 29 May 2016

Verified Purchase

This book needs a damned good edit and an editor who can say, "NO. Just no. The heroine CANNOT be kidnapped, quell a typhoid epidemic, jump ship AND be ship wrecked and then be set upon by pirates, all in the space of 50 pages." "And if you even think about floating that serial killing priest nonsense to me again.... I swear....one of us is fired". Poor editor. Seems she lost both the the battle and the war.

It's clear from the deteriorating quality of the successive books that the editor won Round (Book) 1 and has been losing ground ever since. The clear, relentless and absurd unlikeliness of their plots and their tendency to ramble between the sex bits indicates that the writer is winning and the editor is on a beach somewhere in the Caribbean, dreamily contemplating her writer's next outrage against good, clear writing......whilst Jamie sucks languidly on her toes.

I've read the whole series 3 times thus far and am hanging out for the next book. She researches her books very well and therefore it can take years before the next one is out. Of the whole series, this one, #3, is my absolute favourite, and that's saying something. But I recommend starting from the beginning. When I'm in the Gabaldon snare I resent having to join life.... I'd rather be stranded on a desert island and immerse my self in these books. Good luck at staying away....

I enjoyed this continuing story of Jamie and Claire but felt that this book could have benefited from a good edit. Too much unnecessary waffling. I found evidence of this in Book 2 of the series but it really became a distraction in Outlander 3. I found myself flicking through vast sections and really didn't miss much by doing so. It verges on becoming a pedestrian historical romance but is saved by the strength of the realtionship between Jamie and Claire. "Less is more"

Very Disappointed

Reviewed in Australia on 25 January 2017

Verified Purchase

After having thoroughly enjoyed the first book in the series and then watching season 1 and 2 of the TV series I couldn't wait for season 3. The result was the purchase of this, the third book in the series. I found it so verbose and without direction that I did what I rarely do when reading and that is skip passages. I ploughed laboriously through the last 1/4 and am pleased it is behind me. It is such a pity as I was totally immersed in the first two and would have happily kept reading if it had carried on in the same tone and skill level. I won't be pursuing any further issues.

though I was disappointed to be leaving Scotland behind

Reviewed in Australia on 15 December 2014

Verified Purchase

Again, this is a very gripping and well written novel. The characters are still very strong and the scenery is richly painted, though I was disappointed to be leaving Scotland behind. We are constantly left with a 'what happens next' expectation which holds this series together so well. Jamis and Claire are still the central characters, but we are introduced to more characters drifting in and out of the story line, some important and will appear again, some we can forget. The narrative is still tight and the tension is well executed, if not a little obviously convenient at times.
A great read and I went straight to the next bookin the series.

Fabulous writer!

Reviewed in Australia on 18 January 2020

Voyager is the third book in Diana Gabaldon's "Outlander" series of eight (soon to be nine). The series is simply the best read I've ever come across. Don't be put off by the intimidating size of each book - they are a totally addictive read and you will find yourself whizzing through them and wanting to re-read from the beginning. You'll be glad that you were introduced to the Outlander world

The outlander books have a huge fan base from teenage to mid 80's and from all countries around the world and hundreds of fan groups with thousands of fans. We all love them the same. The casting directors have done an amazing job of giving us Sam Heughan as our hero James Alexander Malcolm Mac

Just read it, anything I could say would be spoilers, I wouldnt do that as I have read some reviews and found out stuff I would rather not have found out until I read it myself.... Diana Gabaldon is a brilliant writer, and the story continues seamlessly in this book as in the previous ones

Suspend disbelief and enjoy a ripping good yarn

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 August 2017

Verified Purchase

I read reviews of this book before buying it. Some of the criticisms are that there are just too many coincidences and that the story is too farfetched. I'd agree with them. However, despite this being the case it's still a ripping good yarn. When one considers any story whether in writing or on film/television, there are always loads of coincidences. And, just how many times that the baddie who gets knocked to pieces spring back to life again and it takes the goodie 4 or 5 goes to kill the baddie off?

The one thing that I found astounding about the story is the part where Claire gives Jamie the photographs of Brianna. This, I would have thought, would have produced some sort of amazed outburst, but there was none. There were no cameras in the 18th century. So, you might ponder, would Jamie not be astounded by the sight of an actual photograph? Of course, he would have! Now this, was the silly part for me.

Another major annoyance was at the start of the book, before Claire goes back through the stones. She's sitting in the doctor's lounge with Joe Abernathy and there, seemingly an awfully long time, Gabaldon reproduces the script of book that Claire is looking at. Was that really necessary? Did it anything to the story? Of course not and I don't see why she felt the need to it other than perhaps to satisfy her desire to write a Mills & Boon novel.

Claire is kidnapped by a British navy ship which is travelling far faster than than the Aramis. Somehow Jamie manages to row a boat sufficiently quickly to catch up with the navy ship. What an incredible feat of strength! It's obviously been quite a few days. Suffficient for Claire to tend to all of the typhoid stricken sailors before jumping ship, quite literally. In HIspaniola Jamie suddenly appears as the captain of some French soldiers with no explanation of how pulled it off. Hispaniola is a large island and yet, coincidentally, the Aramis lands only 2 miles from where Claire washed up.

Reading this probably sounds like I didn't enjoy the book. as so much of it doesn't stand up to scrutiny. This is not the case. One has to suspend disbelief in so many things. For those who watch soap operas, they'll know that the number of times that a character just happens to be looking out of a window at a crucial moment is par for the course. I think the criticism of Gabaldon is unfair. She is writing to entertain and that she does. If you want to read something that is completely accurate in every single manner you'd find the book the most boring thing you'd ever read and there would criticisms for the flow pace blah di blah di blah.

I've only given this book 4 stars and only this reason. The book is written in Amerenglish. The spelling drives me to distraction but even worse is the use of expressions that an awful lot of Brits would be totally unfamiliar with. And what's with this business of joining two words together unphenated. We most definitely not use the word printshop! At best it would be print shop and more likely just "printer's". Yes, it's petty. I marked every awful American spelling in pink and every American expression in blue. There is hardly a page on my Kindle that doesn't have some highlighting of one sort of another. This book concerns British characters and it should as a matter of courtesy to those in the UK (and anyone else who speaks British English) if nothing else, to have had this book edited as such, as Cross Stich was.

Fantastic.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 June 2017

Fantastic reading. As I watched the first two seasons on tv, I couldn't wait to find out how things turned out so bought the next book in the series.
I found it equally as intense as the series, and could relate to the characters and imagine in my head the sound of their voices. I've not finished the book yet, only 3/4 of the way through, but I can recommend it. Diana has an easy way or writing that envelopes you in the story. I will be buying more of the books in the series, as the tv versions will be a while yet. These books and tv series enticed us to travel up to Scotland this year, we'd not been before, but found it beautiful, so much so, that we intend to re-visit later in the year. I can't say a bad thing about any of her books, if you want to be transported away to another time, pick up and read one, you won't be disappointed.

Inaccurate, please research far more carefully

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 December 2019

Verified Purchase

It's a shame this writer hasn't put in much research about, for example, which plants grow in the UK. Milk Thistle DOES NOT. It's a mediterranean herb and would certainly not have been found growing wild in the Scottish Highlands during the period of this book The writer seems to think (mistakenly) that sow thistle, which is a native plant is in some way related to milk thistle, which it is not. Her use of 'local' language too is a mish-mash of some that sounds Scottish but a lot form northern England that might be found in some Dickens novels from a later period. Slang/swear words too, are ENGLISH but she presents them as Scottish/Gaelic, which they are not. Research, Ms Gabaldon, research!

Another family-orientated masterpiece

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 February 2020

Verified Purchase

This book begins with Jamie and Culloden, he is not dead, but death surrounds him. The English have orders to shoot any survivors, but because Jamie saved the officer's younger brother, he is bound by a debt of honour to spare him and quietly return him to Lallybrock.

Establishing Jamie is not dead is important to the story as it gives impetus to Claire’s decision to return to the 18th century. Again, only Claire’s voice is in the first person and all Rogers's findings and his interactions with her are done in the third person. If she goes, she will be leaving Brianna alone and this idea of family parting and reconciliation is a significant theme in this book, compared to the second one.

When Claire returns nearly 20 years have passed and Jamie has undergone many changes of circumstances and how Claire comes to terms with these things that occupy most of the first part of the book. Jamie’s character has not changed and it is this sense of loyalty and duty that gives rise to the problems in the second half of the book.

Jamie needs money to settle a debt of honour and he means to use the Mackenzie treasure to pay for it. Due to an injury, he cannot swim to the island and young Ian swims the distance. When Ian is captured Claire and Jamie need to pursue the ship to rescue him. This takes them to the Caribbean, the slave trade and dark magic. It feels like an in-joke that the naturalist Claire meets on the island is Lawrence Stern (Lawrence Sterne wrote Tristram Shandy in 1759).

As previously stated, this novel is much more family orientated than the second novel, which felt more political and aloof. In another sense, it is darker, with the black magic on the Caribbean island, the pirate attack, and the typhoid plague. The ending brings all the characters together and has Claire and Jamie landing on the shores of America, ready to begin a new adventure in the New World. As always, this book is full of colourful supporting characters, great attention to detail and historical accuracy which makes it a joy to read.

Big read, good read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 May 2017

Verified Purchase

This is yet another massive volume in the Outlander series. I loved the first two novels, especially the first which is intense and highly focussed. I am slightly less keen on Voyager - it is simply too big, covers two centuries, lives lived twenty years apart and a vast geographoical spread from Scotland to North America by way of Paris and the West Indies. But it is still a brilliant, enjoyable and totally engaging novel. It includes a central scene that readers grreatly love - without spoiling the story, I thought that scene was slightly underpowered and stretched by too much happening. There are few fantasty/historical/whatever novels of such power and offering so much - I look forward to the next volume.
