User Reviews: Outlander
The Outlander
Pros: Interesting read-Must read the whole series!
Cons: None that I can think of.
This series has become one of my all time favorites. It starts with The Outlander. I couldn't put it down and couldn't wait to read the next book. Diana Gabaldon does an incredible job of painting a picture of the events of the time. The character development is fantastic. I felt like I knew them. I almost missed them when I finished the book. When I finished the series, it was almost like losing some friends.
Even though it's fiction, it still provides a great look at history, but in an interesting and exciting fashion.Was this review helpful? Yes - NoOutlander -- by Diana Gabaldon
Pros: It will become one of your faves!
Cons: There simply aren't any.
I have the full series in paperback and originally read them years ago. I gave this book to two of my friends this past Christmas, and decided to dig out my copy to read again. I absolutely love this book. Diana writes in such a way that you are immediately immersed in the story. It flows fast, and her characters are so well-developed that you truly feel as if you know and love them (or hate them) personally. This book has everything -- war, combat, sex, love, witches, time travel, politics, history, lore... it's got every element that one could ever want in a book. Every woman reading this wants to be Claire. And every woman reading this wants Jamie Fraser as their guy. This is far from the schmaltzy romance novel. This is truly an epic tale. The history and descriptions of Scotland Highlanders is rich, and I guarantee as you read you'll want to know more about the Jacobite Rebellion, Culloden and the Scottish clans. I also guarantee that when you finish this book, you'll immediately want to pick up the sequel. Now, what I want to know is... when's the movie coming out??

Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing
Where do I start? I LOVE this book. I had always wanted a man like Jamie Fraser... it took 4 years, but I got him! Red hair, Tall, rough around the edges, but with a heart of gold! When I read this book, it was as though I was part of it. I felt that I KNEW the characters personally! A MUST READ!!!!
