Author: Diana Gabaldon
Genre: Romance
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on


Anyone who enjoys historical fiction/romance (i.e. The Other Boleyn Girl) will be hard pressed to put this book down. This is a sweeping, beautiful story set in 18th century Scotland, with a little time travel thrown in for good measure. Keep a dictionary (or Wikipedia) handy to follow the numerous Scottish terms (like "sporran"). Very enjoyable read!
