While on a second honeymoon in Scotland, she visits a strange, flat topped hill, where a forbidding stone circle draws her. Those readers who have read the first book in the series, 'Outlander', know that in 1945, Claire, a combat nurse during World War II, is reunited with her husband, Frank, after the war. The love that spans time is that which twentieth century Englishwoman, Claire Randall, has for eighteenth century Scottish highlands warrior, James Fraser. It is an adventure story that grips the reader from beginning to end and is positively addictive!

While the core of the story is about a love that transcends time, it is, however, much more than that. A masterful storyteller, the author employs the superlative use of historical events and period detail to weave an engaging three dimensional tapestry of timeless love and adventure. Trust me when I say that you will wish that they were longer, so riveting a story does the author unfold. I urge the interested reader to start at the beginning and read each and every one. There are four such novels published to date in what is hoped to be a series of six books. The third in a series of exceptionally well written time travel, adventure/romance books by the author, it tells a gripping and highly entertaining tale. Under her spell, listeners find themselves transported back through time to exciting faraway places alive with people they would enjoy knowing. Can she risk everything, maybe even her life, on a gamble that their love has withstood the long, rigorous test of time? Diana Gabaldon's powerful, witty, and heroic characters lend themselves well to the rich, melodic narration accorded them by Davina Porter. It has been 20 years since she and Jamie were forced to separate. She aches to travel back through time again to find the love of her life, but, in order to do that, she must leave their daughter behind.

Now that Claire knows Jamie survived the slaughter at Culloden, she is faced with the most difficult decision of her life. Set in the intriguing Scotland of 200 years ago, the third installment in the romantic adventures of Jamie and Claire is as compelling as the first. Diana Gabaldon's magnificent historical saga, begun with Outlander and Dragonfly in Amber, continues with this New York Times bestseller.
