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.

Bravo!

Once again Davina Porter earns her own star on the audio book. A good follow up to Outlander, DIA reintroduces all of your favorite clansmen and adds a host of new, colorful European characters. The story has some slow spots but is worth the time.

may be my favorite!

I think this may be my favorite in the series! DG has done an excellent job in exploring the relationship between Jamie and Claire as they go through so many changes . can't wait for the new season to start next month! I have read the book 4 times but this was my first audio! I really enjoyed it and will be getting the rest in the series as well!
