Summary: It just keeps going and going!
Review: There's gonna be alot of depressed people when this tale finally winds down, me included. Diana Gabaldon has an endless supply of imagination. Of course this book is as terrific as the ones before it. Drums Of Autumn has it's own flavor as does each and every book in this series. It offers closure for some items of interest and raises new questions for others. Can't wait for the next book.

Summary: Just a bit off
Review: After reading the other installments, I had hoped this one would regain the luch vision the first 2 books had. There were points in this book that I found wonderful, and even brought me to tears. Yet, I found the second half of the book hurried. As if the author was attempting to hurry up and finish the story. As if she were attempting to tie it up in a pretty bow and put it on display.

Summary: What a great read!
Review: I was very disappointed to read some of the negative reviews of 'Drums of Autumn' regarding the extension of Brianna and Roger. I did not feel that they detracted from Jamie and Claire: they are a natural progression of the story. This book was just as rivetting as the 3 before it. Many are the times I have read deep into the early hours of the morning, absolutely absorbed. A neighbour loaned me the first book in the series, 'Outlander' (called 'Crosstitch' in Australia). On my way to France in September I bought 'Dragonfly in Amber' at Sydney airport and while in Paris I was able to get 'Voyager' to read in the plane on my way home (23hour flight). I hate to think that one day these wonderful tales will end. Get those fingers moving, Diana, we are all impatient for the next one ....and the next....and the next!

Summary: Absolutely amazing!
Review: I have never read a series of books as compeling as this one. I don't usually keep books after reading them, but I've made an exception in this case. These four books are very treasured possesions. Can't wait for the next in the series! Keep up the great work Mrs. Gabaldon! Your novels are superb!

Summary: Can't Get Enough!
Review: My Mother turned me on to The Outlander series and now I am completely hooked! Gabaldon is so detailed in her descriptions that you feel transported to the 18th century. The story and characters keep you wanting more and more! I can't wait for "The Firey Cross." Suggestion to those of you who don't have time to read...listen to the series on tape. Recorded Books has a wonderful unabridged version of the series, and the narrator Davina Porter is fantastic! Keep 'em coming Diana!

Summary: Drums of Autumn
Review: Fascinating. I have read all 4 books and can't wait for the fifth one to be published. Excellent writing. Contrary to some other reviews,I've enjoyed the inclusion of Roger and Brianna and the slower pace in some parts of the book. It helped prolonge the suspense. Keep writing Diana.

Summary: Great adventure
Review: I wasn't sure I would like this one. Claire and Jamie weren't in Scotland! It did take me a while to get into this one, but once I did, I tore through it. The characters are real people. By the time I finished this book, I was so sad because there was not another one to pick up. I miss my friends! Gabaldon does her research, and it really shows. Excellent book!

Summary: Outlander Series
Review: I have read the entire Outlander Series. I fell in love with Jamie during the first series, the Outlander. His charming wit and sense of humor was more than a match for Claire. I am waiting on pins & needles for the 5th of the series, The Fiery Cross. I'm sure it will more than match the previous books. Keep up the excellent work Diana.

Summary: Give me more!
Review: Although I loved this book every bit as much as the three previous, I was dissappointed with it,...but only because I knew it was the last in the series, and that I would miss the characters. They became so REAL to me,.........
Rating:
Summary: Not as good as the others...
Review: The book was really draggy at the beginning but it picked up towards the middle when Brianna went through the stones. Roger wasn't much of a great character (kinda lame) but Jamie and Claire still had "it" and it was such a thrill to read about their love for each other. Hopefully the next book will be a lot better :)
