The Fiery Cross (Outlander)

Crossing the boundaries of genre with its unrivalled storytelling, Diana Gabaldon?s new novel is a gift both to her millions of loyal fans and to the lucky readers who have yet to discover her.

In the ten years since her extraordinary debut novel, Outlander, was published, beloved author Diana Gabaldon has entertained scores of readers with her heart-stirring stories and remarkable characters. The four volumes of her bestselling saga, featuring eighteenth-century Scotsman James Fraser and his twentieth-century, time-travelling wife, Claire Randall, boasts nearly 5 million copies in the U.S.

The story of Outlander begins just after the Second World War, when a British field nurse named Claire Randall walks through a cleft stone in the Scottish highlands and is transported back some two hundred years to 1743.

Here, now, is The Fiery Cross, the eagerly awaited fifth volume in this remarkable, award-winning series of historical novels. The year is 1771, and war is approaching. Jamie Fraser?s wife has told him so. Little as he wishes to, he must believe it, for hers is a gift of dreadful prophecy?a time-traveller?s certain knowledge. To break his oath to the Crown will brand him a traitor; to keep it is certain doom. Jamie Fraser stands in the shadow of the fiery cross?a standard that leads nowhere but to the bloody brink of war. more

5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Sep-19-2009; Very well developed characters and lots of detail.; I'm going to skip the synopsis for this book because I don't want to ruin the story for people that haven't got this far in the series.

5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Sep-10-2009; Another Gabaldon winner.; This author knows how to write a good story. She weaves everyday life, wonderfully rich characters and accurate historical background into some of the best fiction I've ever read.

4/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Sep-09-2009; The Fiery Cross; Unlike Diana's other books in the Outlander series, this one dragged a little until I realized how important all the little things are that happen in my life.

1/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Aug-19-2009; Dreadful book quality; No issue with the story - but this particular edition is tiny - which makes it almost square.

3/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Dec-01-2008; Not one of my favorites.; I was a bit disappointed in this book as I was in Voyager. Too much in to the political stuff. I actually started hating Roger in this book. In all the others I could never put them down, but in this one and Voyager, I found myself...; read full review | report as inappropriate
