DESCRIPTION:
4.5 Stars! Kindle Customer This is another great addition to the Outlander series. A word of warning, make sure you buy the audio by Davina Porter, unabridged. I accidentally ordered the abridged with a different narrator and was terribly disappointed. I had to constantly stop the audio and read without listening to a great many parts of the book. It did not include any of Lizzie’s sub-plot and much of Donner’s intrigues. That is why I have included the link to the correct audio book. Thank goodness for word search on my Kindle!The saga continues in A Breath of Snow and Ashes. The eve of discontent marches forward, bringing to life what led up to the Amer. .5 Stars!

"It just keeps going and going and going" according to charlies mom. Do you need something to put you to sleep? If so I highly recommend it otherwise I'd just skip it. Normally I don't read romance novels but this series was recommended, the first couple of novels held my interest, but this one literally put me to sleep more than once. I kept hoping that either Jamie or Claire would die just to put an end to my misery. I hate giving up on a book, but this one took me months to read and I will admit that I read other books while trying to get through this tome. It's definitely the last in this series for me.. When much is revealed Kindle Customer I've read A.B.S.A. a couple of times now and am in awe of how the author was able to keep such a healthy momentum of anticipation and excitement playing out for the readers throughout the length of this not-so-diminutive novel.The Ridge and it's inhabitants come to life so clearly that one is effortlessly transformed to the time. I was equally invested in the outcomes for all the residents. The Christie's, Uta and Robin's brood, the Bug's, the Beardsley's, Lizzie and Joseph, Bobby, Amy, - heck, even Adso and Rollo The correspondence of LJG is a joy to read. The battle at the bridge will jerk tears even from the driest eye.Above it all unfol
But Jamie has the privilege, although some might call it a burden, of knowing that war cannot be avoided. A worldwide sensation with more than 12 million copies in print, Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series has produced #1 best-selling novels and earned a fiercely devoted fan base. To preserve the colony for King George III, the governor pleads with Jamie to bring the people together and restore peace. With its epic scope, historical details, and sweeping romance, A Breath of Snow and Ashes is everything Gabaldon's fans love and more.. And there is an additional problem. The year is 1772, and the rift between Britain and its American colonies has put a frightening word into the minds of all concerned: revolution. Claire has discovered a newspaper clipping from 1776 that tells of Jamie's death
This vivid and haunting novel, therefore, brings an aching sadness, but it is balanced with sheer joy, revelation, and solace. The large scope of the novel allows Gabaldon to do what she does best, paint in exquisite detail the lives of her characters. From Booklist After waiting nearly four years since The Fiery Cross (2001), readers will find every expectation fulfilled in the sixth book of the popular Outlander series. Gabaldon's ability to invoke the heroic and the harrowing writ large, while also cre
