Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Getting pretty darn ludicrous
Review: Outlander was a really fun book to read. Dragonfly in Amber was weird, but still fun. This book is pretty stupid, though. Claire keeps losing her clothes and getting pretty new ones -- over and over. The book jumps from one bizarre calamity to another, without enough story in between to hold it together.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My favorite!
Review: This one was my favorite of the series. I loved it when they went to the Caribbean islands. I can't wait to read Drums of Autumn next. Enjoy!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Swash-buckling fun anyone?
Review: Diana Gabaldon's book Voyager was alot of fun to read I found. Especially after the first two emotionally draining (in a good way) books. It was a high seas, tropical adventure with reunions both good and bad and the usual shocking plot twists that this author is so good at. I felt as if I had no time to catch my breath from one adventure to the next. It also got a little creepy for a few chapters. I don't think there is any genre that this talented author wouldn't be able to write a whole novel in. This saga continues to be excellent as usual.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Something's quite different
Review: After reading the first 2 books in the series, I was overjoyed to sit down and delve back into the lives of Jamie and Claire. How disappointed I was as I got further and further into the book. I didnt like the changes that were made to the characters, and at points, I actually was disgusted with them. This book pales greatly in comparision to the others.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I can't get enough of this story!
Review: Once again I was enthralled by these characters. These books stay in your mind and your heart long after you've finished them.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not up to the level of the rest of the series
Review: In all, this book was very, very good, but not quite on a par with the rest of the series. It seemed to me that the characters were acting against their former natures - doing things they wouldn't do. In all, I do recommend it, and not just because you won't be able to follow the next book. Some of the scenes are breathtaking, and the writing is superb.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Part of the Greatest Historic Romance Series EVER
Review: I read all of the books in this series about 3 times. The historic accuracy, the attention to detail, the supernatural, and the great sex were a potent combination. I loved the characters, which were highly developed. The story made me laugh and cry. Very enjoyable and memorable story.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: it was ok
Review: I had been a D. Gabaldon fan up until this point. Voyager was sooo boring, I couldn't stay awake. I just had a really hard time trying to follow what the heck was going on. It just wasn't as colorful or passionate anymore as the other books in the series previously.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: abridgement turns this book from great to trashy romance
Review: Read the book. Don't bother with the audio version if you enjoy the depth and humour in Gabaldon's writing. The abridgement made the story sound like your typical trashy romance, with all of the emphasis on the sex scenes. It removed all of the intrigue, character development and history from the book.

While she writes decent romance, that is not what makes her books so worth reading and eagerly anticipated.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantastic & Well Written
Review: One of the best science fiction/new age/romance combinations to come along in a very long time. This is the first in a series of books by a very prolific writer who is able to weave a tale and continue the story with a thread a mile long. Set in modern time and in history, the romance and intrigue are captivating, and spellbinding. This is a must for that long vacation with relatives, or at your spouses high school reunion. Diana takes you out of time and space and puts you back in again, but in a different era...wonderful, escapist romantic, intelligent writing..Keep it up!
