Summary: With out a doubt the Best BOOK I EVER READ!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: I bought this book a year ago in Publix. After I started reading it I couldn't put it down.It has everything in it. From Romance to History to Action ,it's just wonderful!Jamie(hero) takes your breath away. Claire has so much spunk and wit that you have to agree they are the best couple. Be sure to buy the rest of the series. I'm about to start the last book Drums of Autumn! Scotland is so ideal and a perfect setting for these stories! So far all are great and you keep wanting to read more!! Gabaldon is A GREAT AUTHOR. Buy it! Trust me you won't reget it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: A memorable epic...
Review: Outlander is a terrific romantic/adventure epic that is smart, funny, heart-wrenching, and sexy. Outlander is wild, controversial, and intense, so one needs to keep in mind that these are only fictional characters. Don't worry, the end is satisfying as well. If you've never read this book, I'd say lay your doubts aside and get it.

Summary: 800 pages & I read it in two days! I couldn't put it down!
Review: I randomly bought this book for a friend who was recovering from surgery, and it sounded so fascinating that I bought a copy for myself. I am not normally a reader of romance novels, preferring fantasy/science fiction. I loved this book. I literally read the entire book in one weekend! Ms. Gabaldon's characters are so vivid, that I could picture every one of them in my mind. The plot is just complicated enough to keep you interested, without being confusing. The wonderful mix of passion/humor was refreshing, and I found myself actually laughing out loud at some of the funny parts. I especially liked the wedding night scene because of it's mix of passion and humor.I'm almost afraid to read the sequels to this book, in case they aren't as good as this one. But, I'll definitely read this book over more than once in the future

Summary: Incredible; Takes you to another time and place.
Review: This is the best "Romance" novel I have ever read. I felt as if every time I picked it up I was instantly transported back to 18th Century Scotland. The characters were so well described, that by the end of the book I felt as if I had truly known them, Lived this story with them, Experienced what they felt. Incredible. Can't wait to read the next three in this series. Please continue with these characters. I would love to read more. Sincerely, MsGIANT Miami, Florida

Summary: Absolutely the best
Review: As a law student, I needed a break from reality last summer. My mother-in-law gave me Outlander - that was all it took! I have now read all 4 of her books 3 times and they get BETTER every time! Can't wait for the next two in the series!

The characters never come up for air, they're constantly on the move, bringing so much adventure to each word written! I can't wait to start the next one!

Summary: the first in a wonderful series
Review: Although it's been 3 1/2 years since I first read "Outlander", episodes in the book remain very fresh in my mind. The three books which have followed are equally memorable, although the fourth one ("Drums of Autumn") has a few weak spots. Jamie and Claire are two of the most wonderful characters ever created, and despite the rather fantastic nature of the story line (i.e. time travel), they are realistic to the point where the reader feels like he/she knows these people. There are going to be two more novels in the series, and until the next one comes out, I guess I'll be re-reading "Outlander", "Dragonfly in Amber", "Voyager" and "Drums of Autumn"!

Summary: Escapism that just keeps on giving...
Review: I am Scots-obsessed to begin with, so when I saw tartan on the cover and "Scottish Highlands" in the synopsis I bought it without a second thought. It turned out to be the only book that's made me laugh out loud, cry real tears then hunt through my history books and maps for MORE. Needless to say, I have lent it to others who have become more obsessed with the series than I and the last person didn't return it! A special thank you to Ms. Gabaldon who usually rolls into our town on her tours right around my birthday. As a result, my copies of "Voyager" and "Drums of Autumn" made wonderfully autographed gifts from my husband (my own Jamie). My only disappointment came when I stepped inside a stone circle near Inverness and managed to remain in present day!! Looking SO forward to more!

Summary: This book was one of the best books I've read.
Review: This book & the other 3 in the series were interesting, funny, sad, loving and historic. They were spellbinding books, almost impossible to put down once you started them. I read the books months ago but I still remember the characters as though they were very good friends. I work in a large office building and all the girls read these books and even had a luncheon to discuss them. Everyone who I've loaned the books to agree - this author is fantastic! She describes everything so well you feel as if you were there. She doesn't spend pages on one subject (such as sex scenes) but she does cover the subject quickly and well - she doesn't bore you with it. She is writing two more books in this series and all the girls in our building are anxious to read them. I would recommend these books to anyone who enjoys reading.
