OUTLANDER - BOOK 3: VOYAGER

(IMG:http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w68/maripoti/OUT03.jpg)

Gabaldon continues the saga of 20th-century physician Claire Randall and 18th-century Jacobite rebel Jamie Fraser in her third Outlander book, Voyager. The first quarter the novel covers, in alternate sections, the 20 years the couple spends apart. Jamie is imprisoned, then pardoned and finally sets up shop as a (seditious) printer. Believing that Jamie died at Culloden, the pregnant Claire returns to her own century, reunites (unhappily) with her first husband and gives birth to a daughter, Brianna. But when Claire takes Brianna to Scotland in 1968 to introduce her to her true heritage, they uncover evidence that Jamie had survived.

Claire determines she must rejoin him and once again steps fatefully through the stones on Craigh na Dun to find Jamie in Edinburgh in 1766. They wish nothing more than to lead a quiet life, but the kidnapping by pirates of Jamie's young nephew sets the couple off to the New World in pursuit, followed by old enemies and faced by new and vicious dangers.

Gabaldon adroitly shepherds her protagonists through the eternal misunderstandings of the sexes, as well as those due to the different epochs in which they were born. Her use of historical detail and a truly adult love story confirm Gabaldon as a superior writer of historical romance.

OUTLANDER - BOOK 4: DRUMS OF AUTUMN

(IMG:http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w68/maripoti/OUT04.jpg)

Gabaldon continues the romantic love affair of Claire (a 1960s woman) and Jamie (an 18th-century Scottish rebel), and introduces us to Brianna and Roger's story. The fourth in a series of linked sagas this new epic has a delicious premise.

Claire Randall, the post-WWII bride of historian Frank Randall, steps through a skew in the Scottish stone circle Craigh na Dun and lands in Revolutionary America and the arms of Highlander Jamie Fraser. Bold and bawdy, but a believing Catholic, Claire struggles to live a rich and moral life--or, rather, rich and moral lives--under these extraordinary circumstances. Claire's adventures in 18th-century Charleston alternate with equally engaging chapters devoted to her 20th-century daughter, Brianna.

Raised as Frank Randall's child, Bree discovers that Jamie Fraser is her real sire. She takes off on a harrowing, confrontational quest through time and space with her suitor, Roger Wakefield, in hot pursuit.

Gabaldon's range is impressive, whether she's evoking the rawness of colonial America, the cozy clutter of a modern Scottish parsonage, the lusts of the body or the yearnings of the spirit. Her legion of fans will love diving into this ocean of romance.

OUTLANDER - BOOK 5: THE FIERY CROSS

(IMG:http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w68/maripoti/OUT05.jpg)

The fiery cross, once used to summon Highland clans to war, now beckons readers to take up Diana Gabaldon's fifth installment in the Outlander series featuring the time-traveling Frasers. Fans will thrill to Gabaldon's trademark detail and sensuality, both displayed liberally throughout the nearly 1,000 pages of The Fiery Cross.

In this new novel, 18th-century Scotsman James Fraser learns from his 20th-century wife, Claire, that the American Revolution is coming.

Claire and Jamie, have crossed oceans and centuries to build a life together in the bucolic beauty of North Carolina. But now tensions both ancient and recent threaten not only Claire and Jamie, but also their daughter, Brianna, her new husband, Roger, and their infant son, Jemmy--as well as members of their clan.

Gabaldon delivers on what she does best: poignant storylines, empathetic characters, meticulous detail, and searing passion.

OUTLANDER - BOOK 6: A BREATH OF SNOW AND ASHES

(IMG:http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w68/maripoti/OUT06.jpg)

A Breath of Snow and Ashes continues the extraordinary story of 18th-century Scotsman Jamie Fraser and his 20th-century wife, Claire.

The year is 1772, and on the eve of the American Revolution, the long fuse of rebellion has already been lit. Men lie dead in the streets of Boston, and in the backwoods of North Carolina, isolated cabins burn in the forest.

With chaos brewing, the governor calls upon Jamie Fraser to unite the backcountry and safeguard the colony for King and Crown. But from his wife, Jamie knows that three years hence the shot heard round the world will be fired, and the result will be independence, with those loyal to the King either dead or in exile.

And then there's also the matter of a tiny clipping from The Wilmington Gazette, dated 1776, which reports Jamie's death, along with his kin. For once, he hopes, his time-traveling family may be wrong about the future.

Outlander 07 - An Echo in the Bone (2009)

(IMG:http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/7779/n271911.jpg)

Jamie Fraser, erstwhile Jacobite and reluctant rebel, knows three things about the American rebellion: the Americans will win, unlikely as that seems in 1778; being on the winning side is no guarantee of survival; and he'd rather die than face his illegitimate son - a young lieutenant in the British Army - across the barrel of a gun. Fraser's time-travelling wife, Claire, also knows a couple of things: that the Americans will win, but that the ultimate price of victory is a mystery. What she does believe is that the price won't include Jamie's life or happiness - not if she has anything to say.

Claire's grown daughter Brianna, and her husband, Roger, watch the unfolding of Brianna's parents' history - a past that may be sneaking up behind their own family.
