I have just finished reading the complete series, to date, for the second time and loved is just as much as the first time around!! Can’t wait to read this new book your characters have such vitality!! So excited to see the TV series. I always thought the books would be perfect for a series or movies.

Since my husband has trouble with his eyes, reading is hard for him. I decided to start with Outlander and check the audio books out of the library. We listen to one disk each evening instead of watching tv. We are ready to start Dragonfly in Amber, so at the rate we are going, we will be ready for IMOHB. He is your newest fan.

Which is what I was told. I cannot wait to revisit my old friends, all the characters in your books. Many thanks. Susan

It got so each trip we had to make to the KY hospital (we live in IL) for his treatments my son would ask “how many pages does this book have?” Son is doing well.

I am very worried about little Jemmy what with Roger going back thru time to find him when Jemmy may not go back in time at all, and then Roger and Brianna will be stuck in two different times wondering what is happening to the other. If Jemmy does not go back how will Roger know so he can come back to the future??? And if Jemmy does go back in time how will Brianna know that Roger and Jemmy will end up in the same place to find each other and return to the present?

Can’t wait for the next book but will have to re-read Echo to refresh myself.

Я живу совсем в другой части планеты- в России, но мне очень интересны Ваши книги.
Любовь это вечная тема, а любовь с преградами-она завораживает. Понятные доступные выражения и фразы еще больше привязывают к прочтению книг.
Постоянно мысленно ассоциируешь себя с Клэр, с радостью находишь много общего.
Спасибо за замечательное произведение и удачи!

Good afternoon, Diana!

I live in a completely different part of the planet, in Russia, but your books are very interesting to me.

Love is an eternal topic, and love with barriers, it is fascinating. Clear accessible expressions and phrases are even more attached to reading books.
Constantly mentally associating yourself with Claire, with joy you find a lot in common.

Thank you for the wonderful work and good luck!

I feel pressed to attempt a brief explanation to ease my mommy guilt. My daughter is 17 and wants very little or nothing to do with me most days. Surviving adolescence requires a warrior attitude and I look to this Outlander series for tips on being the warrior I need to be as well as the escapism necessary to endure it.

It’s the “Hallowe’en candy” conundrum!

I have enjoyed this series immensely!

Of course, Claire is living my dream (no, not just the “Jamie” part!) -the chance to go back in time. I am deeply immersed in uncovering my family’s history, going back through the 1600′s in Scotland. It has long been my desire to “meet” my ancestors, and with your novels, it seems I can! Thank you!
