Resumen del Editor

It was only a matter of time before Diana Gabaldon's best-selling Outlander saga made the leap from book to hit TV series, and the millions of readers captivated by the epic romance of Claire Beauchamp Randall and Jamie Fraser have eagerly followed. Now the must-watch drama has inspired this must-have guide, which reveals that it takes a village (or perhaps a Scottish isle) to bring the breathtaking world of Outlander to life in front of our eyes. Spanning the first two seasons of the Starz network sensation, The Making of Outlander leads listeners behind the scenes and straight into the action as cast members, writers, producers, musicians, costume designers, set decorators, technicians, and more share the many adventures and challenges they face to make this sweeping saga come alive on the screen.

Book to screen

A fascinating behind-the-scenes examination of the complexities of bringing "Outlander" alive for its fervent fanbase

All things OUTLANDER

#Outlander, has evoled and developed to bring alive the books of #DianaGabaldon. Production and writing to keep the integrity alive, is no easy task. Yet, it all started from Terry and Meril talking over lunch about some books they read. #RonaldDMoore thank you for you and Meril's hard work.

Great addition to Outlande! No so good narration!

If you could sum up The Making of Outlander: The Series in three words, what would they be?

Interesting, Informative

What other book might you compare The Making of Outlander: The Series to and why?

I have neither listened to nor read any other book similar to The Making of Outlander.

What didn’t you like about Tiffany Morgan’s performance?

Tiffany has a lovely voice but her pauses before the "he said, she said (specific name)" was frustrating. I thought once she got into the book, she would stop that pause. It was incredibly distracting. To the point that I was so focused on her pauses, I lost track of the story. I would expect this from a new narrator but Audible.com has such gifted narrators. It was a HUGE disappointment.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Outlander: Inside Scoop

What does it take to make Outlander?

A whole heck of a LOT.
The backstory reminds me of the history that it took to get "The Princess Bride" on screen. And they are similar, in that both are undefinable!

Is it Romance? Drama? Comedy? Historical? Sci-fi (time travel) You just can't label it. I LOVE the book parts that have me laughing hysterically. It's simply something you cannot contain in one single movie or one single season.

I liked how this book took every single episode & talked thru what happened. And THE WEDDING... word porn for ladies from the books becomes flesh. I especially appreciated how ladies were in charge of this episode & how they detailed WHAT are the differences between what men think is sexy, and what's REALLY sexy.. And The Wedding has to be the best Episode of the whole show. It's magic. Now I know what happened to bring it to life.

It will make you want to binge watch series 1 & 2

Having read the books as they came out and watched as much of the series on TV there is to see so der, this book does a terrific job of providing fascinating additional depth to the entire Outlander world.

I encourage all fans to listen to this!

Seeing Outlander TV series from within

The book is a wonderful way for Outlander fans to be part of how Outlander was filmed and what struggles the cast and crew overcame to give us the Outlander TV Series.

Outlander secrets told

I love all of the behind information that is told. With the highly acclaimed Downton Abbey I purchased the 3 seasons scripts with the notes, I wished that they had continued that for all of the seasons. So, here’s hoping that these books keep up to date throughout all of the upcoming seasons.

lOVE all the back story … it makes it even more phenomenal.

The Making of Outlander , Seasons 1 &2 is fantastic! There’s so much detail as to the performances, the settings, props, back story … just everything. I’ve watched “Outlander” multiple times, this reading makes it even more phenomenal.

So very interesting!

This book is a must for Outlander fans! It gives wonderful behind-the-scenes glimpses into the filming and the stars!

Fun look behind the scenes

I love all things Outlander and hearing how the TV series has unfolded is simply another great piece of the Outlander Universe.
