Ratings and reviews

Diana Gabaldon is a genius, and my personal hero. The Outlander series is by far the best in its genre, and this book did not disappoint. I'm so desperate for the ninth book; Diana please hurry!

Do it! The whole series! You'll never be able to put them down. Amazing story and Davina Porter (narrator) is a master!
