Diana Gabaldon
Expected publication date: November 23, 2021
The past may seem the safest place to be . . . but it is the most dangerous time to be alive. . . .
Jamie Fraser and Claire Randall were torn apart by the Jacobite Rising in 1743, and it took them twenty years to find each other again. Now the American Revolution threatens to do the same.
It is 1779 and Claire and Jamie are at last reunited with their daughter, Brianna, her husband, Roger, and their children on Fraser’s Ridge. Having the family together is a dream the Frasers had thought impossible.
Yet even in the North Carolina backcountry, the effects of war are being felt. Tensions in the Colonies are great and local feelings run hot enough to boil Hell’s tea-kettle. Jamie knows loyalties among his tenants are split and it won’t be long until the war is on his doorstep.
Brianna and Roger have their own worry: that the dangers that provoked their escape from the twentieth century might catch up to them. Sometimes they question whether risking the perils of the 1700s—among them disease, starvation, and an impending war—was indeed the safer choice for their family.
Not so far away, young William Ransom is still coming to terms with the discovery of his true father’s identity—and thus his own—and Lord John Grey has reconciliations to make, and dangers to meet . . . on his son’s behalf, and his own.
Meanwhile, the Revolutionary War creeps ever closer to Fraser’s Ridge. And with the family finally together, Jamie and Claire have more at stake than ever before. - from Goodreads
Finally, more Jamie and Claire - yes, please!
YES! So excited for this! I pre-ordered my copy!
ReplyDeleteYay!!
DeleteGreat choice, Angela! I'm a fan of the series (both the books and tv) but I've only read the first 4 books.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Stephanie!
DeleteI was so obsessed with this series for so long! I've fallen behind and really need to get caught up again.
ReplyDeleteThe later books definitely have a different feel, but still so good!
DeleteOoh new Gabaldon???
ReplyDeleteYes!!
DeleteI hope you enjoy it when it comes out!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteI have never read these, I watched the first few seasons of the show, but got bored of it when they left Scotland, which was basically why I was watching in the first place LOL. I hope you enjoy!

Thank you!
DeleteWow! I find it incredible that the author has more Outlander stories left in her. Amazing!
ReplyDeleteAnd considering each book is the size of two or three regular books!
DeleteI really need to revisit this series. I read the first book year ago, before I really became much of a romance reader. I think I would appreciate it so much more now that my reading tastes have changed a bit. I hope you love this new one!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Suzanne!
DeleteI've heard great things about this series. I hope that you love this one, Angela! :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy this! (I thought this series had ended for some reason!)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Haha, I've read she's already working on book 10!
Deleteoh wow, already #9, and I haven't started yet!!
ReplyDeleteHaha, good luck! These books are so long!!
DeleteI only read the first book, which I loved, but then never picked them up again, though I still want to try some day! They're just a little intimidatingly long haha :)
ReplyDeleteHaha, yes, they are quite the commitment!
