With her now-classic novel Outlander, Diana Gabaldon introduced two unforgettable characters — Claire Randall and Jamie Fraser — delighting readers with a story of adventure and love that spanned two centuries. Now Gabaldon returns to that extraordinary time and place in this vivid, powerful follow-up to Outlander....
For twenty years Claire Randall has kept her secrets. But now she is returning with her grown daughter to Scotland’s majestic mist-shrouded hills. Here Claire plans to reveal a truth as stunning as the events that gave it birth: about the mystery of an ancient circle of standing stones ... about a love that transcends the boundaries of time ... and about James Fraser, a Scottish warrior whose gallantry once drew a young Claire from the security of her century to the dangers of his....
Now a legacy of blood and desire will test her beautiful copper-haired daughter, Brianna, as Claire’s spellbinding journey of self-discovery continues in the intrigue-ridden Paris court of Charles Stuart ... in a race to thwart a doomed Highlands uprising ... and in a desperate fight to save both the child and the man she loves....

I enjoyed this book but found it a little disjointed. Usually I find myself completely enthralled with a book or at least pulled in, but not with this one. Obscure story lines and lightly touched upon points were unexplained yet significant. Although there are some authors that repeat themselves at nauseum, this writer had the opposite problem.

I love Diana Gabaldon. I've read the full version of this book and it is one of my favorites. Unfortunately they didn't do a very good job abridging it. It's not that I don't like all abridged books (they did an excellent job abridging Firey Cross in the same series), this one just could have been better. It also has background music at random points, which I found annoying. But overall it is a great story.

While I prefer the unabridged versions of books, this one tended to get to the point without much in the way of extras. I felt like there was alot left out but I enjoyed the continuation of the Outlander series and ready to continue to Voyager

This book could be interesting if you're interested by history. It's long and sometimes nothing special happen during some chapter. I didn't really like it.

I am a sucker for historical romance novel and this one fits the bills completely. I am hooked and wish I had a long, long, long road trip to listen to it all at once. This was a part of history-the Scotland England uprising-that I had never read anything about for my academic lesson.
