Loading... Drums of Autumn (1997)by Diana Gabaldon
![]() No current Talk conversations about this book. So very addicted to this series now. Love the evolution and bringing in the next generation. ( ![]() Maybe it was being busy with work or just the sheer volume... the first 1/2 was slower for me. The second half was a page turner! There is no amount of money someone could pay me to have a child. Another excellent time-travel story from Ms. Gabaldon. Fell in love with Jamie and Claire all over again, getting to know Roger and Brianna, and all of the trials and joy they go through. This series is definitely a keeper and one I will enjoy many times over the years. I wasn’t overly fond of this one. It was 500 pages of boredom, 300 pages of really good, and 200 pages of WTF? Some characters I ended up liking quite a bit, more than I did previously. Some rubbed me the wrong way and I found I could quite do without them. Trying not to be spoilery here. I’ll just say I can’t wait to see how all this plays out in season 4 of Outlander. Things I liked: Brianna going back to see her parents Brianna’s encounter with Laoghaire Brianna and Marsali being at first kind of jealous of each other, but then becoming friendly LJG offering to be fake engaged to Brianna Things I didn’t like: Brianna - I was really praying she went back to her time. She intentionally uses Frank to hurt Jamie. Claire’s attachment to Frank’s ring What happened to Young Ian Fergus being “absent” for most of this. We didn’t hear from him much. no reviews | add a review

Diana Gabaldon's fans will be delighted to find Jamie and Claire as spirited and endearing as ever in this fourth installment of this magnificent saga. Romance, history, and time travel blend once again as the couple builds a new life together in the wilderness of pre-Revolutionary America. Twice Claire has used an ancient stone circle to travel back to the 18th century. The first time she found love with a Scottish warrior but had to return to the 1940s to save their unborn child. The second time, twenty years later, she reunited with her lost love but had to leave behind the daughter that he would never see. Now Brianna, from her 1960s vantage point, has found a disturbing obituary and will risk everything in an attempt to change history. Davina Porter's narrative talent adds a special vibrance and resonance to Gabaldon's complex, colorful characters. If you've experienced Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber, or Voyager), you already know the length of the book is deceptive. None of them is nearly long enough. No library descriptions found. |
