Claire Randall, a former British combat nurse, is just back from the war and reunited with her husband on a second honeymoon when she walks through a standing stone in one of the ancient circles that dot the British Isles. Suddenly she is a Sassenach--an "outlander"--in a Scotland torn by war and raiding clans in the year of Our Lord . . . 1743. Claire is catapulted into the intrigues of a world that threatens her life, and may shatter her heart. Marooned amid danger, passion, and violence, Claire learns her only chance of safety lies in Jamie Fraser, a gallant young Scots warrior.

    I bought this book for myself and then I bought one for my husband the following week.

    Diana Babaldon is an extremely talented author who takes you deep into the lives of her characters. The book keeps you engaged from beginning to end. The physical book itself is of good quality and the price is good.

    A little more worn than expected. Great price though.

    I would need to read what "Good" means. The front cover was ripped and it is well used. I've bought other books in this category that are in better shape. Otherwise it was a great price so I probably shouldn't complain.

  • Outlander Review

    I had purchased series 2-7 of this book set, so only needed the first book. It came very quickly in the mail and I could not wait to start it, so I could continue with the other books. I'm only halfway through the 2nd book in the series, but I am still extremely interested and compelled to read all the books in this series. A great author who puts great attention to detail and authenticity for the time period. I'm really enjoying this series of books (and loved the series on television)!

  • Love the Outlander series!

    The books have more detail than the tv series! I love the tv show but am anxious for any extra information from the books. Have started reading volume 1 already. Thanks for offering a great package deal!

  • 2nd Favorite series

    I love the series on Starz. The books are so good its hard to put down! Series is close to the books so far but some scenes are a combination of 2 or more than in the Book. Great read!
