The Fiery Cross

Summary: Now we really see the Professor's brain
Review: As with most of the reviews, 1,2 and 3 were smashing, I trudged through 4 in anticipation of another smash hit. But I was disappointed with Fiery Cross. Dianna has switched on her University Professor brain, with it necessity for detail lost on us "commoners". "Outlander" is no longer a learning exercise, with all it's excitement for her. Dianna has now taken on the novelist job. It's to bad the story is suffering. I will as others, continue to read until Jamie and Claire pass of the scene. But I hope their lives liven up for book 6 and 7. Thank you for the good times, we learned our Scottish history!

Summary: not so good
Review: by far her worst book: no real plot, Jamie and Claire worn completely dry, not much John Grey, vurtualy no Ian and when there is its disapointingly predictable; it goes right from the point were he left to the present and nothing happens, all his past actions turn into one big detour. Most scenes, if once good, drag on for way to long and even the scenes between Bree and Roger get really old. the one thing i did enjoy was all of the writing about the babies, which surprised me. I didnt read the last 100 pages, i got bored.
