Product Description
With her now-classic novel Outlander, Diana Gabaldon introduced two unforgettable characters — Claire Randall and Jamie Fraser — delighting readers with a tale of adventure and like that spanned two centuries. Now Gabaldon returns to that extraordinary time and place in this plain, powerful follow-up to Outlander….
For twenty years Claire Randall has kept her secrets. But now she is returning with her grown daughter to Scotland’s majestic mist-shrouded hills. Here Claire plans to reveal a truth as stunning as the events that gave it birth: about the mystery of an very ancient circle of standing stones … about a like that transcends the boundaries of time … and about James Fraser, a Scottish warrior whose gallantry once drew a young Claire from the security of her century to the dangers of his….
Now a legacy of blood and desire will test her gorgeous copper-haired daughter, Brianna, as Claire’s spellbinding journey of self-discovery continues in the intrigue-ridden Paris court of Charles Stuart … in a race to thwart a doomed Highlands uprising … and in a desperate fight to save both the child and the man she likes….

Overall, I like the book. I was concerned to see that one reader, who said he was a real highlander, establish it to be unauthentic. But, for my own part, I was struck by a couple of discrepancies in the beginning of the book. Namely, Claire breaks a couple of crystal glasses belonging to one of the leading male characters (I forget his name) and nothing is said about the financial loss to the character. Crystal is expensive, yet he seems not the least concerned — nor is she. He only obesesses about the question in his mind as to whether she did it deliberately or by manufacturing accident. Rumor has it that all the characters must be independently wealthy, since Claire also engages this man to do some time-consuming past research for her, and no one bothers their head about any monetary compensation for his efforts. Right, he is crazy about Claire’s daughter, but still you would reflect the question of money would at least be mentioned.

I establish this to be a very enjoyable book to read. If you want to read a book that goes straight to your heart, read Stolen Moments by Barbara Jeanne Fisher. . .It is a gorgeous tale of unrequited like. . .for certain the like tale of the nineties. I proposed to give the book a quick read, but I got so caught up in the tale that I couldn’t place the book down. From the very beginning, I was fully caught up in the heart-wrenching account of Julie Hunter’s battle with lupus and her growing like for Don Lipton. This like, in the face of Julie’s impending death, makes for a tale that covers the range of human emotions. The touches of humor are fantastic, too, they add some nice contrast and lighten things a bit when emotions are running high. I’ve never read a book more deserving of being published. It has rare depth. Julie’s tale will remind your readers that life and like are precious and not to be taken for granted. It has had an impact on me, and for that I’m grateful. Stolen Moments is written with so much sensitivity that it made me want to weep. It is a spellbinder. What terrific writing. Barbara does have an exceptional gift! This book was edited by Lupus specialist Dr. Matt Morrow too, and has the latest information on that disease. ..A perfect gift for a name who ongoing college late in life, fell in like too late in life, is living with any illness, or trying to know a loved one who is. . .A gift to be cherished forever.

I am a real Highlander. This book was written by a name who’s research had to have been done from English history books.
This book was agreed to me as a gift. It is dreadful.

I read the book many years ago and lended it out to a friend and never got it back. I wanted to replace the book with the same take in because I really loved the art work. When I went to order online the take in you showed was the exact take in that I wanted to replace but when I received my book it was a different take in then what was being shown on the website. Even now the artwork that is shown with this e-mail from you shows the right take in. Upon ordering I could not figure out how to find out if this would be the take in that was going to be sent to me. I am very grateful that the return was covered in full and thank you for your quick response.

If you like Hustler you will like this book – if I wanted Pornography I would order it on Pay per View. Really unnecessary porn as in Mister Raymond putting fingers into Claire’s vagina in order to save her life! Randall buggering Jamie and Jamie letting him after Randall had already let Claire place. Yeah I know he gave his word of honor but I don’t judge any right Highlander would let himself be buggered for the sake of honor. If you are anything like me you will find yourself skipping pages at a time in order to avoid this trash.
Dull to the point of fatigue through a lot of it. If you are having distress sleeping this is the book for you.
Maudlin enough at times to bring on vomiting.
Crisis after crisis after crisis and all they have to do after each crisis is bang each additional’s brains out and that makes everything all right.
I’m sorry I had to give it one star.
