Product Description
The magnificent saga continues….
It started in Scotland, at an very ancient stone circle. There, a doorway, open to a select few, leads into the past–or the grave. Claire Randall survived the extraordinary passage, not once but twice. Her first trip swept her into the arms of Jamie Fraser, an eighteenth-century Scot whose like for her became legend–a tale of tragic passion that finished with her return to the present to bear his child. Her second journey, two decades later, brought them together again in frontier America. But Claire had left a name behind in the twentieth century. Their daughter, Brianna….
Now Brianna has made a disturbing discovery that sends her to the stone circle and a terrifying leap into the unknown. In search of her mother and the father she has never met, she is risking her own future to try to change history…and to save their lives. But as Brianna plunges into an uncharted wilderness, a heartbreaking encounter may strand her forever in the past…or root her in the place she should be, where her heart and soul belong….Amazon.com Review
Set in pre-Revolutionary War America, readers finally have the much awaited fourth book in what will probably become a six book series (The Outlander series). The talented Diana Gabaldon continues Claire and Jamie’s romantic like affair, and introduces Brianna and Roger’s tale. Eight hundred pages, and several wonderful new characters later, we marvel why we were waiting for a conclusion. It’ll be a long wait for book five, so I recommend you go back and reread Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber, and Voyager to keep yourself sane.

I was very disappointed at the condition in which the book was sent to me. There were several pages that were folded and torn so terrible that it would have been hard to read them. I would have thought that whoever packed the book would have noticed the hurt prior to packaging it.
I was also disappointed that I was not agreed a choice of book covers from which to choose. When I selected that particular copy, I believed that I was getting a different take in. The take in I received was the more modern one; I would have preferred the older version – the one with the kilt and additional items on it.
If there is any way to make this suggestion: If there are more than one book covers from which to choose, allow your purchasers the option of which take in they would prefer. More than likely, the purchaser will not care as to which one they prefer; but, there are instances when a certain type of book take in is needed to perfect a collection.
Thank you.

It is very hard to read one book lacking reading them all, and that is torture. Claire is too smart to be believable, therefore she becomes an irritating know it all. I had no interest in the North Carolina frontier and will NOT read another. I’m through with Gabaldon. The books are too long, for one thing. A better writer could pull it off. She can’t. I hope there will be no more of Claire, Jamie, and Brianna. I’ve read enough to last several lifetimes.

… and his absence killed it. When I read the first book in this series, A Dragonfly in Amber, I was happily suprised that it wasn’t a run-of-the-mill, formulaic romance. The characters were shockingly three-dimensional and the antagonist was, well, a terrible guy with a face behind the black moustache, so to speak.
Well, sequels have been disappointing, not least Drums of Autumn. Brianna has the personality of a paperdoll compared to her mother, and sorry to say a fantastic deal of the book revolves around her. Likewise, her like interest is only slightly more charismatic.
In synopsis, don’t miss the first book of this series but don’t bother with the rest.

There are people calling this a fantastic book. What? Excuse me? I don’t reflect so. This book has no plot, action, or anything that would even be considered remotely excellent. I don’t know how people could ever want to read it.
Really, the book is a -1, but hey, whose counting? I couldn’t even end the book, it was so dumb. But if the sort of book that you like is the one that doesn’t make you reflect or be excited, this book is the right one for you.

While reading this book I could hear the leader straining in the background. Better throw in a rape, a bear, an indian attack, a storm. The melodrama was over the top. These piled on events were interspersed with long dull stretches like where Claire grows penicillin or describes the mountain. At one point I stopped reading to count the adjectives. You can skip 20 pagers at a clip and miss nothing. I won’t be reading another.
