Publisher's summary

New York Times best-selling author Diana Gabaldon enchanted scores of fans with Outlander, her electrifying historical saga set in 18th-century Scotland. Now the sequel sweeps listeners back into the past as Claire relates more of her perilous sojourn there with her Scottish warrior husband, James Fraser. Twenty years after her strange journey back in time, Claire has returned to Scotland with her daughter, determined to share with her the secret she has harbored since her time travel. Still longing to know the fate of her beloved warrior, she recounts the story of her stay with him in the intrigue-ridden court of Charles Stuart and their attempt to avert the doomed Highlands uprising at Culloden. As her story unfolds, it reveals implications more far-reaching than even Claire could have guessed.

Narrator Davina Porter's gift for expression captures the history and flavor of a harsh place and time, and gives it the polish of a warm and engaging love story.

Edit needed

The book although well written could have done with a good edit. At times too long and wordy.

Fabulous story completely hooked

I am totally caught up in this love affair, and can’t wait to start the next one. I thoroughly enjoy hearing all the different voices and accents that one performer can do the story is enhanced further by her skills.

Amazing narrator

Ive been a long time fan of the Outlander series, but the narration has taken it to another level. The accents and voices for each character as accurate and consistent. It adds a whole new depth to the story.

A Talented Narrator

The narrator is by far best of the best! She exquisitely is able to transition her voice between characters to impersonate each individual with ease!
The story is brilliantly written and I going forward to listen to the entire series, although I have watched the show!

Fantastic narrator for a fantastic story

I love this series. Davina Porter brings these characters to life! This is my 4th time through the series, but my first in audio format. If you are on the fence, just do it! You will not regret it.
