Summary: What a Ride!
Comment: So much has already been said about this series of books, but I can't help it, I have to add my two cents just in case there are still people out there who have put off reading this series because of the time-travel aspect, (which is why I didn't read them for so long as a big fan of historical fiction). Stop resisting, start at the beginning, go out and pick up a copy of Outlander and I promise you will not stop until you have read all of the books in the series!
The first part of Voyager covers the time Jamie and Claire spent apart and we learn what has been going on in Jamie's life. (God, I didn't think it was possible to love that man anymore than I already did!) I had to fight so hard not to skip ahead to their reunion, but it was worth the wait! Like Claire, I was absolutely shocked to discover what was waiting for them at Lallybroch. I was so angry that my hands were shaking and I put the book down in disgust. But, like her, I came to my senses. A love like theirs cannot be denied, no matter the circumstances.
What I love best about Ms. Gabaldon's series is her beautiful dialogue. The scene on the ship where he talks to her about courage...that's absolutely profound. The scene near the end where he wonders how he can ever expect her to realize the difference between other relationships he's had and his feelings for her...so touching. And in all of the other scenes in between, their words to each other are always so true, so real. I could read 1000 pages of Jamie and Claire talking about nothing but the weather and still be captivated.
Outlander is still my favorite in the series, because I love reading about the beginning of their relationship, the trials they go through and watching their feelings for each other develop, but Dragonfly in Amber and Voyager are both wonderful, too. I've just started Drums of Autumn and I wish the story of Jamie and Claire would never end!

Summary: Wonderful!
Comment: I can never get enough of these characters and their lives. Ms. Gabaldon has an exciting creative mind!

Summary: As good as the first in the series, better than the second book.
Comment: Escapism, adventure, easy reading, and spicy - good for a long trip or snippet reading when you can steal time. Recommended for adult women with a healthy sense of imagination. The romantic aspect appealed to me less than the adventure and historical aspects. Not particularly well written or profound, rather for busy women who like to read to escape - this is a great series. The first book was best, the second slightly feeble, but this, the third, picks up steam and the content is varied and captivating. I want to visit Scotland now!

Summary: Captivating!
Comment: I first started reading this series a few years ago and highly await the next publication of the series. Written by a very talented Scottsdale, AZ author, Diana Gabaldon; this series of books is for anyone who wants to find a captivating read. The plot starts with a post World War II nurse who is visiting Scotland with her husband and accidentally steps through some stones back in time a few hundred years and how she has to adapt quickly to her surroundings in order to survive. She meets up with a band of Scottish highlanders who take her in and force her into marrying one of their own, the handsome Jamie who protects her from harm and the two end up madly in love. Sounds like a romance novel? Well, it is not. It is researched and written beautifully and you find yourself learning all there is to know about Scotland during this historical time. This novel is for history buffs and well versed readers. This is a series of books that lead us historically through time and place through the eyes of Clare and Jamie. After reading the first book, you will be looking to buy the rest of the series. Hooray for Diana Gabaldon!

Summary: Customer Service
Comment: How about a little bubble wrap? I recently ordered several paperback books from Amazon and they were placed in one box without any paper or bubble wrap. As a result, two of the covers were bent. I paid for new books but a poor packing job made them look like used copies.

From the author of the breathtaking bestsellers Outlander and Dragonfly in Amber, the extraordinary saga continues. Their passionate encounter happened long ago by whatever measurement Claire Randall took. Two decades before, she had traveled back in time and into the arms of a gallant eighteenth-century Scot named Jamie Fraser. Then she returned to her own century to bear his child, believing him dead in the tragic battle of Culloden. Yet his memory has never lessened its hold on her...and her body still cries out for him in her dreams. Then Claire discovers that Jamie survived. Torn between returning to him and staying with their daughter in her own era, Claire must choose her destiny. And as time and space come full circle, she must find the courage to face the passion and pain awaiting her...the deadly intrigues raging in a divided Scotland... and the daring voyage into the dark unknown that can reunite--or forever doom--her timeless love.
