    I don t think any author is in love with her characters and her own writing as much as Diana Gabaldon To the point that she is convinced that absolutely everything she writes about them has to be in her books Who cares about the plot and moving things along and putting in her novels only events that would advance the plot Not Diana I ve loved the Outlander books for a while, in spite of their fragmented nature and sometimes convoluted story lines, but this time even the most dedicated fan would [...]

    So far, the weakest book in the series This book dragged on and on and on It took me about four times as long to finish this one as it did the other four There was just a lot of unnecessary drama The interesting parts were few and far between, but were just enough to keep me reading And I will admit, by the end I was finally engaged enough to want to read the next one, so it didn t turn me off completely There were just a lot of things that didn t need to be in the book This is the first time re [...]

    And the story continues Listening to these audio books back to back, they are starting to run together I think I mentioned this before, but it s like one big, ongoing Outlander movie or something I don t know if what I listened to was something from the other book or vise versa Here s what I know Everyone is living together at Fraser s Ridge Jamie gets called into the army by the Governor and Roger is with him There is some fighting but I think there is to come And sweet baby Jesus, if Roger di [...]

    When I finished this, my knee jerk reaction was to give it a 4 star However, after some consideration, I have to be honest with myself and say it was really just a 3 star read The Fiery Cross is the 5th book in the Outlander series, a fantasy romance historical time travel everything but the kitchen sink series which began when Claire Randall, on a second honeymoon in Scotland, is thrown back in time from 1946 to Scotland during the Jacobite uprising that ended tragically at the battle of Cullod [...]

    I DID IT I FINISHED THIS HULKING BEAST OF A BOOK.The Fiery Cross is the fifth book in Arizona woot author Diana Gabaldon s time traveling historical fiction saga I have enjoyed all the books up until this one, some with reservations, but still enjoyed They all felt like they had strong backbones, and even though they were long, most of the stuff stuffed up in there had a point Not so with this fucker.Since the book is soooooo looooooong, I m going to respond by being concise than I would usuall [...]

    And so book 5 comes to an end I started reading this series on June 16th and they have consumed me for all of my summer holidays I swore I would take a break after each one but could not They are long, they are detailed, all the names get a little confusing sometimes I suppose I, myself, could be accused of jumping on the bandwagon, what with the TV series airing last night in the USA Maybe so, but as I have had the books on my kindle and some of them in paperback for some time now certainly bef [...]

    Went something like this 50 chapters of camping and sexual frustration where nothing really happens.Nothing happens, repeatedly.50 chapters of a wedding with a LOT of sexual frustration followed by a murder most foul, an autopsy, and sex in the stables FINALLY More nothing happens.50 chapters of a large scale battle.Confrontation where guy gets his balls shot off Maybe.Ending with us waiting for the revolution to happen.Throw in a couple of major characters almost dying okay, she really got me w [...]

    This is a hard book to review Besides the fact that it s over 1400 pages and took me over a month to read it s Diana Gabaldon She writes fascinating accounts of history, trivia, mythology, a great love story, science fiction and people with great detail.In some places I wanted to hurry through the details and get to the heart of the story, and other places I savored every word That s the beauty of her writing, you have to read every word, absorb every detail because it will come back maybe 700 p [...]

    In the end, I wound up liking this book, but it was a long so, so long and bumpy road to get there Somehow, this book is written by the same author who managed to pack an epic fantasy adventure into 800 pages with the original Outlander Yet 1500 pages were needed here to to do what I don t even know There s than a couple sweet scenes between Jamie and Claire, but in between it s a wasteland Over and over, characters are described as hiding a smile or having the corner of their mouth twitch in a [...]

    This review can also be found at Carole s Random Life.Anyone who knows me knows how much love I have for this series I really enjoyed listening to this book I have recently listened to the first four books in the series after having read them years earlier This was the first time that I have experienced this book and I was a little nervous about listening to it instead of sitting down with a book but I think it worked out well in the end So much happens in this book That is really kind of normal [...]

    I read this as soon as it came out Had to have it in hardback because I couldn t wait for paperback and had to have my own precious copy Wish I had waited or borrowed it from the library I was so excited to see what Claire and Jamie were up to, but it was a very slow read, explaining every little thing in detail I mean, I love to read books that don t gloss over the not so pretty parts of the day, but explaining that a child needs a diaper change, and it s unpleasant aroma, over and over and OVE [...]

    Well, I finally finished The Fiery Cross sigh I absolutely LOVE these books This installment was no exceptionI found that this installment had so many deep emotional scenes, that when i finished, I felt that i had connected to the characters, emotionally, then ever before Starting with The Gathering, when Jamie calls his people out, and they all hold hands The wedding scene between Roger and Brianna was both hilarious and touching The various incidents at the Gathering really set up so much for [...]

    Audio reread at 2x 2.5 stars.This is a long meandering book that might have a plot It establishes the family on Fraser s Ridge and follows them for about a year There are medical and military related story lines, and a lot happens in 1400 pages Some highlights Clare sets up a penicillin factory on the mountain Jamie develops a foot fetish Bree takes on the persona of the Professor on Gilligan s Island The family seems to be an unhealthy obsession about knowing who Jemmy s biological father is Sa [...]

    The Fiery Cross is the fifth book in a series written by Diana Gabaldon about Clare Fraser, who can travel through time by touching stones think stonehenge The first time she time travelled, it was an accident She travelled two hundred years backward to the 1740s and met the love her life, Jamie Frasier, a Scottish highlander Their love story has developed through out each of the books as Gabaldon details the historical setting that surrounds them In The Fiery Cross, the year is 1771 and the unr [...]
    Sharon ∞❥ is an emotional book junkie ❥∞
    This book starts off at The Gathering which is where all the Scots come together to see how everyone is and what s been going on But that s only the tip of the iceberg of what all happens in these 1443 pages The blurb makes you think that the book is a lot about the war but it s not Wow There are so many major things that happen in this book and one extremely shocking event I just couldn t believe that Diana Gabladon did that to Roger and while she set up things nicely, it was still incomprehens [...]

    Gabaldon invests much time and descriptive effort in this novel, which ties off many threads left dangling in DRUMS and introduces the reader to a plethora of new characters The novel continues where DRUMS ended, at a a gathering of some of the Scottish colonial settlers Brianna and Roger are set to marry and have their son, Jemmy, baptised When a proclamation arrives from the Governor of North Carolina, everyone is put on notice that rebellion will not be tolerated against the British King Whil [...]

    Finally finished the 5th book in this series sometime this month and I m getting to the review part YAY I kind of really wish these books were a lot smaller They just take so much time to read and to absorb all of the information thrown at you I need time to decide if I like the book, characters, storyline, and everything else Also, things definitely dragged on I didn t care about what the hell was happening for than half of the book It just seemed like I was reading so much unnecessary informa [...]

    De todos los libros de la saga hasta ahora le dos con este perd un poco el ritmo Entre las ocupaciones diarias, la universidad que no daban tiempo a leer a gusto, me tarde indeseadamente a leerlo Y por fin lo hice La historia no pierde cadencia, con una trama interesante, situaciones muy bien desarrolladas, personajes fascinantes, hasta los m s secundarios tienen algo que contar aportando fundamento El momento de lectura fue muy grato y emocionante Curiosamente es el libro de la saga donde los p [...]

    Mundane Crap.Not to say this was mundane crap, you have to read the period after the word mundane Very important to interpret this as two separate thoughts.I ve listened to the first four books in the Outlander series and have absolutely loved Davina Porter s narration I have continued the series primarily because of her fantastic efforts This being book 5, the story is getting weak I trudged my way through this book only through the encouragement of my friends at the Audiobooks Group It was a 5 [...]

    Review for audiobook 2.5 stars story 5 stars narration I have to say that it takes talent to write a book of 1,443 pages with nothing really happening This 55 hr 30 min audiobook was loooonnngggg and tedious at times The only thing that saved the book for me was the extremely wonderful narration This book was 1,000 pages too long and it could have easily been well told in 40o I will listen to the series again, but I will skip this book It was mostly filled with everyday life to the point of want [...]

    It s done It s over faints Review to come 6 2 16Ok, folks, here comes THE REVIEWYou might want to put on a seat belt There is a LOT to say for this oneOk This book Ahem.If you already read it, you probably know the first thing on anyones review is that the book was SLOW And I mean agonizingly, bang head on the wall, scream in frustration SLOW.Fifteen Thats the number of chapters that was spent, in essence, on one scene Thats right, the great Gathering Where many things were supposed to happen, t [...]

    This was too long, way too long I think part of this authors charm is that there is always some meandering between the important scenes, but in this book it felt like she was just going on and on about nothing, and I often found myself, thinking about other things instead of following these rantings I still enjoyed the narration and the humour I also feel that I understand Claire much better, we get to know her not only as Jamie s lover but also as a healer, a mother and a person She has now bec [...]

    Boy, I ll tell you what Diana Gabaldon sure does have a lot to say.It took me approximately 350 pages to actually become interested in this book, which is the reason why I m giving it 4 stars instead of 5, but I did really enjoy the last 1093 pages of the book I mean, Jamie and Claire have the most unbelievable adventures and even though some of them are so very far fetched, I need to know what will happen next SPOILERS AHEAD Things I need to know 1 Where did Stephen Bonnett get shot in the hand [...]

    I love you, a nighean donn I have loved ye from the moment I saw ye, I will love ye til time itself is done, and so long as you are by my side, I am well pleased wi the world I have to admit that this is my least favourite book out of all Outlander novels so far Yet, it was better than the majority of the books I have read in my life Outlander world has completely consumed my life and I am not complaining On the contrary, I am already looking forward to reading next instalment Bring it on DG To [...]

    I originally gave this 4 stars, because I hesitate to give any romance novel 5 But this isn t a romance novel It s a story about a family whose love for each other transcends the boundaries of time Cheesy and clich , I know, but true Outlander began as a guilty pleasure, but the series has morphed into something much profound and worthwhile since then I m impressed with Gabaldon s ability to ease in new characters throughout her books Usually in a long series, I m wary to welcome new people on [...]

    The year is 1771, and war is coming Jamie Fraser s wife tells him so Little as he wishes to, he must believe it, for hers is a gift of dreadful prophecy a time traveler s certain knowledge Claire s unique view of the future has brought him both danger and deliverance in the past her knowledge of the oncoming revolution is a flickering torch that may light his way through the perilous years ahead or ignite a conflagration that will leave their lives in ashes Book 5 And frankly, they re starting t [...]

    About 3.5 stars for me.I listened to the audiobook version of this book all 55 hours of it Yup, 55 hours Luckily, the narrator Davina Porter is amazing and she does make the book come alive.I ve listened to the first 4 books in this series back to back and now it is time for a break While I love Jamie and Claire, I kind of don t have the same feelings for Brianna The historical aspect of the book is interesting however I feel that it would be incredibly difficult for someone to jump from the 197 [...]

    Actual rating 3 and a half stars, but excuse me while I blankly stare at the wall again from feelings Truthfully I didn t know when I d even get around to finishing this, because the first half I found to be so dragging and tiresome where not a lot was happening across lots of pages Don t get me wrong I m in love with a series and it s characters but after such an entire book 4 it was highly difficult to grasp my mind around this first half.Then something happened involving a certain someone and [...]
