NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The second book in Diana Gabaldon's
acclaimed Outlander saga, the basis for the Starz original series.
This special twenty-fifth-anniversary edition features a new
introduction by the author and a reader's group guide.
"A triumph! A powerful tale layered in history and myth. I loved every
page."--Nora Roberts
With her 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 sequel to Outlander.
For twenty years, Claire Randall has kept her secrets. But now she is
returning with her grown daughter to the mysteries of Scotland's
mist-shrouded Highlands. Here Claire plans to reveal a truth as shocking
as the events that gave it birth: the secret of an ancient circle of
standing stones, the secret of a love that transcends centuries, and the
truth of a man named Jamie Fraser--a Highland warrior whose gallantry
once drew the young Claire from the security of her century to the
dangers of his.
Claire's spellbinding journey continues through the intrigue-ridden
French court and the menace of Jacobite plots, to the Highlands of
Scotland, through war and death in a desperate fight to save both the
child and the man she loves.
