#1 New York Times bestselling author Diana Gabaldon returns with the newest novel in the epic Outlander series. The past may seem the safest place to be … but it is the most dangerous time to be alive. …Jamie Fraser and Claire Randall were torn apart by the Jacobite Rising in 1746, and it took them twenty years to find each other again. Now the American Revolution threatens to do the same. It is 1779 and Claire and Jamie are at last reunited with their daughter, Brianna, her husband, Roger, and their children on Fraser’s Ridge. Having the family together is a dream the Frasers had thought impossible. Yet even in the North Carolina backcountry, the effects of war are being felt. Tensions in the Colonies are great and local feelings run hot enough to boil Hell’s teakettle. Jamie knows loyalties among his tenants are split and it won’t be long until the war is on his doorstep. Brianna and Roger have their own worry: that the dangers that provoked their escape from the twentieth century might catch up to them. Sometimes they question whether risking the perils of the 1700s—among them disease, starvation, and an impending war—was indeed the safer choice for their family. Not so far away, young William Ransom is still coming to terms with the discovery of his true father’s identity—and thus his own—and Lord John Grey has reconciliations to make, and dangers to meet … on his son’s behalf, and his own. Meanwhile, the Revolutionary War creeps ever closer to Fraser’s Ridge. And with the family finally together, Jamie and Claire have more at stake than ever before.

I had to wait a long time for this book as the author sets up her books very thoroughly. It's huge but you don't novice as you want to go on and on and on... love it. The only bad thing is that the book had an end....

As all previous Outlander books, I thoroughly enjoyed this one as well. Great writing by Diana Gabaldon, great reading by Davina Porter.

Waited for years for go tell the bees, expected it to be the end,now it ends on a cliffhanger en I want the next episode. It is such a magnificently researched story, but now I just have to know how Jamie gets Lord John out of trouble!!

Eindelijk gaat het verhaal verder na zes jaar. Iets minder spanning in dit boek maar je blijft je afvragen hoe het de gehele familie Fraser zal vergaan. Nu weer wachten op het volgende boek. Hopelijk duurt dat niet weer zes jaar…..

Goed verhaal wel maar weer n open einde… het zou van mij wel mogen eindigen zo langzamerhand. T is ook even wennen aan de voorlezer. Op de kinderstemmetjes na (die blijven irriteren) wordt het meer te verdragen

I loved every page of it. I loved being back on the Ridge, getting to know more about William, learning more about the war. Can’t wait for the next one.
