Diana Gabaldon’s fans will be delighted to find Jamie and Claire as spirited and endearing as ever in this fourth installment of this magnificent saga. Romance, history, and time travel blend once again as the couple builds a new life together in the wilderness of pre–Revolutionary America.

Twice Claire has used an ancient stone circle to travel back to the 18th century.

The first time she found love with a Scottish warrior, but had to return to the 1940s to save their unborn child. The second time, twenty years later, she reunited with her lost love but had to leave behind the daughter that he would never see. Now Brianna, from her 1960s vantage point, has found a disturbing obituary and will risk everything in an attempt to change history.

Critic reviews

"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." ( Publishers Weekly)

However, I have discontinued purchasing the audiobooks due to the next three volumes in the series have YET to become available in the unabridged version. Also, unless Davina Porter is the narrator of the next three books...I probably won't bother. What in the world are they thinking??? To change the character's voices at this point in the game is ridiculous! Hope they get it right, otherwise they've lost my interest and a loyal follower of the Outlander series. :(

**LOVE** the first four books!!!!

The fourth in a series of great books. The narration by Davina Porter was outstanding. Diana Gabaldon's attention to detail makes this series so good. Don't be daunted by the length of the book the story just sweeps you away like you are there with Jamie and Claire.

Another Fantastic Book

I'm so glad I waited for the unabridged version. I hope that audible will get more of these wonderful books about Jamie and Claire in unabridged form with the same great narrator. The hours flew by, I hated it to end.

Unabridged is the only way to go with this series

I absolutely love and adore the combination of Diana’s writing and Davina’s voice and narration. I have been hesitant about audiobooks in the past, sometimes the way people read aloud can be more distracting than enjoyable, but not with Davina. She has incredible fluency and fluctuation that allows you to feel as though you’re hearing the actual characters in conversation, not to mention that she reads multiple different languages and sings! She makes the characters come to life! I’ve often gotten confused as to who was the one talking when reading the book myself but the way Davina uses different voices for each character, I never get confused and can always tell who’s line it is. I’ve never heard anything like it and I cannot wait to continue the series! ☺️
