Helpful Score: 1

Usually I like to start my reviews with a short synopsis, but let's face it: if you're five books into a series already I highly doubt you need one. If you do you're on the wrong page my friend. The first book in the series is "Outlander." Go read that one and you will eventually make your way here.

I have to say that this has been my favorite Gabaldon book in the series after the original "Outlander." Of course, I'm a history buff so the fact that the beginnings of the Revolutionary War are starting around them might have something to do with it.

This book was compulsively readable. It started out very slow and I was sure I was in for the long haul like I was in "The Firey Cross," but after the first hundred pages, the story really took off.

I was very sad when this book ended. I'm really looking forward to reading "Echo in the Bone."

I realize this review really didn't add anything that true "Outlander" readers probably didn't already know, but if you're this far in you may as well keep going. Trust me: after reading "Breath..." you will be glad you didn't give it up!
