He probably just hadn’t thought of it yet. He collects his stones one at a time, after all.

When Jamie names all the stones in his bag there isn’t one for Fergus why?

Love your Lord John series! I think he is one of your most interesting and fascinating characters. I’m so looking forward to buy Scottish Prisoner which will finally be realeased in June 25th here in Germany. Waited so long :)
I would really love to read more about Lord John’s youth and his friendship with Hector. Will there be a novel about them someday maybe?
My comment on this blog may come a bit late, but I just felt I have to express my appreciation for your great work.
Keep it up!

Best Wishes from Germany
Freya

Its rich in detail and portrays the nobility of Lord John’s character in interesting ways. You begin to understand Jamie and John’s special friendship; in a curious way, they are very similar, honorable men striving to behave honorably in hostile circumstances.
I loved the book, bravo et chapeau, Dr Gabaldon! You’ve woven more gold into your fabulous tapestry…

Thank you for the years of pleasure– and anticipation!

No, THE SCOTTISH PRISONER is set in 1760–it’s about what happened to Jamie while he was separated from Claire, when Lord John’s brother forces him to go to Ireland to help Lord John.

Is The Scottish Prisoner the “follow- up” to An Echo in the Bone”? I am on my 3rd time through the series and need to find out what happens to Jemmy!

J&C becomes almost alive right in front of me when I read about them :) I’ve read the series 3 times,but,as so many of you reading people out there,I have unanswerd questions :) 1) How did black Jack Randall end up dead on top of Jamie at Culloden? Did they just happend to meet during the fight or did Randall search for J at the battlefield? And who killed Randall? Was it J that killed him in the end,wanting to do that for so long? 2) Will William ever get to know that Jamie is his biological father ? 3) Claire,Brianna and Roger can travel back and forth in time assumingly because they put all theire thougts on someone they love in the time they want to travel to.What about Mandy,who’s so little when they go back to the 19th century that she probably can’t focus on anything?
love to hear from you :)
