Synopsis

From the author of Outlander... a magnificent epic that once again sweeps us back in time to the drama and passion of 18th-century Scotland...For twenty years Claire Randall has kept her secrets. But now she is returning with her grown daughter to Scotlands 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 ancient circle of standing stones ...about a love 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 beautiful 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 loves....

I loved this book... the Scottish history was facinating and te chracters so well developed, you felt as though you truly knew them. I was very impressed with the author. My only complaint was some of the scenes between Claire and Jamie were too graphic. I would have preferred to have more left unsaid in that respect...but the rest of it was so engaging. I am motivated to finish the series and see howt all turns out.

I usually listen to the book when driving only. This book is so fascinating, and the Narrator did such an awesome job, I was sad when I reached CD # 33. I look forward to the next part. I just don't understand why some parts are abridged. What is the purpose of reading only part of a book?
