Diana Gabaldon is the New York Times bestselling author of Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber, Voyager, and Drums of Autumn. A masterful novel of passion and a love spanning centuries, The Fiery Cross is the highly anticipated, triumphant continuation of the phenomenally popular Outlander series.

Eighteenth-century Scotsman James Fraser and his 20th-century time-travelling wife, Claire Randall, have emigrated to the beautiful countryside of the Royal Colony of North Carolina. The year is now 1771, and dissidents are stirring throughout the American colonies. Claire forewarns James of the impending war and the dangers it may bring to their clan. Will her knowledge of America’s tumultuous revolution be enough to guide them through a dangerously uncertain future?

Featured Article: The Best Women Narrators to Listen to Right Now


One of the biggest questions listeners have when it comes to approaching a new audiobook is whether or not they'll enjoy the narration style. This is understandable, as audiobooks are at least a few hours long (with many clocking in at 20 hours long—or more!), and sticking with one person's voice for that time period can feel like a big commitment. We rounded up some of the best female narrators with a robust list of audiobooks under their belts.

This has been a long time coming. For me, it's been 3 years of requesting this at least once a week. Fantastic series with a fantastic reader. Now I can finish the series and see what happens to all the characters. Thank you audible for making this available.
For new readers, I strongly recommend starting with Outlander and working your way forward. What I love about these books is that they don't fit into any specific genre. There's romance, bloodshed, betrayal, time travel, Etc., but please don't let the fact that this is a bit of a science fiction read discourage you from trying it out because there's so much more to this series. I mean, who can resist a scottish warrior.:) I myself finished Outlander in 2 weeks, and that was during my Freshman year of college, and it happened to be the end of the semester.
As I've said, these books are very different which is hard to find these days. Davina Porter is an AMAZING narrator also. Like I say, start with Outlander if you are new to this series and don't let the fact that this book is list in the sci-fi category discourage you from at least trying it.

Finally it's here!

*Delightful Sigh*

I am really enjoying this series. However, I’m still not sure about Roger. He seems to have become a man in this book, but I still have warning bells about him.
I must also admit, that I’m still a bit disappointed that Jamie became a Free Mason.
But I was so happy about Ian coming back. I am looking forward to hearing more of his story.
And lastly, I am able to roll my tongue!!!!

Some years ago I read the first two books of series in paperback. I have only lately had occasion to continue but have listened to two (this one just finished) out of order, not realizing the order. The ongoing saga is so compelling, I am going back to listen from the start, hoping to fill in the gaps of my understanding of events.

Young readers note: the narration is graphic, intimate, and includes some language.

I give the book's story, the narrator's performance, and overall, each 5 stars and recommend the Outlander Series to readers of historical, romance, mystery, and fantasy novels. Read, listen, enjoy.

Although there are some slow points. overall am excellent read. Davina Porter is the best narrator in my opinion out of all the audible books I've listened to. She truly opens the imagination so it's so much better than watching on a television screen!

Superb

This series is one of my favorites, and this is the first time I have had a chance to listen to the audio version. The reader does a fantastic job with the different voices, cute sounds, and proper intonations to give the reader a clear picture of what is happening.

Diana Gabaldon always delivers

Would you listen to The Fiery Cross again? Why?

I'm already on my second go round. Great story. I laugh and I cry. Davina Porter lends a wonderful bit of extra to this already great story.

What about Davina Porter’s performance did you like?

I love everything about Davins Porter's reading of this story. She adds so much feeling and I love that she can pronounce everything!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Several moments moved me. One of my favorite things about books is that your imagination can just run wild. I have laughed so hard that I have attracted unintended attention and cried so hard that I have had to move to a private location.
Wonderful story. I really want to love and be loved as the stars of this story do and are.

Any additional comments?

Read it, read it, read it! It's worth every single minute.

Great continuation of a wonderful story!
