I’m trying to intentionally keep this vague because I don’t want to spoil this (and previous books).THE FOURTH NOVEL IN THE BESTSELLING OUTLANDER SERIES. Magical and exhilarating with many, many things in between. I love the writing and the way these stories flow over time. Moments that made me smile, one’s that made me enraged, and others that brought tears. There’s a hundred different things that happened throughout this. I was surprised where the story went and love how everything clicked together. Plenty of intrigue, banter, and romance for them. I’m smitten for a good love story and this was definitely good. I might have been more invested in them for this book. Some of my new favorites are definitely Roger and Brianna. I enjoy seeing how life progresses for them and watching them choose each other over and over again. Even if the story itself is crazy complicated. Claire and Jamie were amazing again (no surprise) and I love the simplicity of the story in that, we’re following their lives. The narration was solid and really brought the book to life. This was also the first one I listened to on audio! Such a great combination. This might be my favorite Outlander book. I’ve sat on this review for awhile because sometimes I feel like it’s hard to write a review over a book you LOVED and when it’s 900 pages. 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. 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. Now Brianna has made a disturbing discovery that sends her to the circle of stones and a terrifying leap into the unknown.

But Claire had left someone behind in the twentieth century-their daughter, Brianna…. Her second journey, two decades later, brought them together again in the American colonies. Her first trip swept her into the arms of Jamie Fraser, an eighteenth-century Scot whose love for her became a legend-a tale of tragic passion that ended with her return to the present to bear his child.

Claire Randall survived the extraordinary passage, not once but twice.

There, a doorway, open to a select few, leads into the past-or the grave. It began at an ancient Scottish stone circle. Once again spanning continents and centuries, Diana Gabaldon has created a work of sheer passion and brilliance…. In this breathtaking novel-rich in history and adventure-The New York Times bestselling author Diana Gabaldon continues the story of Claire Randall and Jamie Fraser that began with the now-classic novel Outlander and continued in Dragonfly in Amber and Voyager.
