I came across this book looking for cross stitch books for sewing, and immediately felt I had to read it, as I love all reading all scottish novels etc. I couldn't put this book down once I had started. I was transported back in time along with the *sassenach* and loved understanding pieces off history and reliving it. I have just bought the next instalment dragonfly in amber, and am hoping its just as good as the first instalment. I'm not a quick reader, but 800 plus pages read in 2 weeks, for me thats good. When I read a book that totally takes me into each word and tears, yes I did cry, THAT to me is a book worth reading.

The best book i have ever read!!!!
It took a few chapters to get into it, but it was such a wonderful story......i can't wait to read the next book!

This book is one of the best I have ever read. My friend actually recommended it to me and I really wasn't sure it would be my thing. I decided to give it a go though and I am so glad I did. The relationship between Jamie and Claire is so believable, even in the strange circumstances the book is set in. Loved it and am now on the third one. If you buy this you won't regret it.
NB If anyone is wondering the order of the books is Cross Stitch; Dragonfly in Amber; Voyager; Drums in Autumn; The Fiery Cross and A Breath of Snow and Ashes.
