About this deal

An Outlander Family Tree" – Originally published in Written in My Own Heart's Blood in the end papers. Also published in The Outlandish Companion, Vol. II. There are more babies born =) The kids are growing up and it's been a joy to read about it through out this journey. Although, some of them growing up and having sex were to be skipped over. Just no! It was the same repetitive rubbish when it came to the main story… the insipid war, the non-stop walking, the manufactured separation between characters, the cheesy romances, and the contrived and far fetched situations. Where were the twists and turns? Where was the intrigue and suspense? Where was the organic/genuine drama? In June 1778, Claire is 61½ and Jamie is 57. By the end of the novel in June 1779, Claire is 62½ and Jamie is 58. In her now classic novel Outlander, Diana Gabaldon told the story of Claire Randall, an English ex-combat nurse who walks through a stone circle in the Scottish Highlands in 1946, and disappears . . . into 1743. The story unfolded from there in seven bestselling novels, and CNN has called it “a grand adventure written on a canvas that probes the heart, weighs the soul and measures the human spirit across [centuries].” Now the story continues in Written in My Own Heart’s Blood.

It is 1779 and, at last, Claire and Jamie are reunited with their daughter Brianna, her husband Roger and their family, living together on Fraser’s Ridge.

Information on Global Publication Dates. A celebration of fantasy that melds modern ideology with classic tropes. More of these dragons, please. Gone, which I personally think is a beautiful title. Gabaldon plans to write ten books in total for the Outlander book series.Where did the title for this book come from? Talking to your bees is a very old Celtic custom (known in other parts of Europe, too) that made it to the Appalachians. You always tell the bees when someone is born, dies, comes or goes—because if you don’t keep them informed, they’ll fly away. This sentiment was echoed by a number of other angry voices, and he veered into an alley, pursued by shouts and honks of agitation. Currently, there are eight main published works in Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series with more on the way. They are as follows: Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber, Voyager, Drums of Autumn, The Fiery Cross, A Breath of Snow and Ashes, An Echo in the Bone, and Written in My Own Heart’s Blood. A ninth book has already been announced; it is titled Go Tell the Bees That I Am At right, Diana is signing books for the MOBY release party in Phoenix on June 10, 2014.

Sure, he was married to one and was in her tribe for a while but that ended years ago. He shouldn't be calling himself a mohawk or an Indian and claiming their heritage as his own.

Percy warns Grey that William is in danger from Captain Richardson. Grey escapes from the Continental army camp to find his son. WRITTEN IN MY OWN HEART’S BLOOD was released in the U.S.A. and Canada on June 10, 2014. On June 18, Diana sent a special message her readers via Facebook: “THANK YOU, ALL!!! … Very happy, and very grateful—and Really Thankful for all of you!” The parts I loved? Roger and Bree. Almost unputdownable and I loved the twists and turns on the bad boys chasing the family and the twists on the time travel (loved where Roger ended up - can't wait to hear how that all ended). The worst Outlander book so far, which is saying a lot since the last few have been less than impressive. If all the Claire/Jamie/William/Ian/Rachel/John parts had been cut out and just Roger/Bree/Jem's chapters remained then I would have rated this four stars. I never would have thought I'd like Roger/Bree over Jamie/Claire, but they were my favourite characters in this one, probably because they had such an engaging plot especially when compared to the rest of the characters. For most of the book I was hoping Claire, Jamie and co would just drop dead because they were that snooze-worthy. Alas, they didn't.

Please note that the description below of GO TELL THE BEES THAT I AM GONE (Book 9) may contain SPOILERS for TV viewers who have not read my books, and for readers who have not read all of the first eight novels already published in my Outlander series!
