1777: Die Zeichen stehen schlecht für einen Sieg der Kolonien im Unabhängigkeitskrieg gegen die Briten. Nur Claire Randall, die Zeitreisende aus dem 20. Jahrhundert, und ihr geliebter Mann, der schottische Rebell Jamie Fraser, wissen, wie der Krieg ausgehen wird ... Jamie weigert sich, zur Waffe zu greifen, stattdessen will er mit dem gedruckten Wort in die revolutionären Kämpfe eingreifen. Dazu braucht er seine Druckerpresse, und die steht noch immer in Edinburgh. Während es in den Straßen der amerikanischen Kolonien schon nach Pulverdampf riecht, macht sich Jamie bereit für eine Rückkehr in die schottischen Highlands, mit Claire an seiner Seite.

      Gabaldon's genre-crossing classic of romance, fantasy, and historical fiction tells the story of Jamie and Claire, lovers from different centuries caught in the bloodshed of the Scots' struggle to be free of the English. It achieves a new dimension in the audio format. Davina Porter maintains the distinct voices she creates for each character throughout the lengthy narration. Her delivery of eighteenth-century language sounds authentic and is easily understandable. The hot sex and graphic violence, integral to the story, are far more vivid on tape than they are on paper.

      Absorbing and heartwarming, this first novel lavishly evokes the land and lore of Scotland, quickening both with realistic characters and a feisty, likable heroine. English nurse Claire Beauchamp Randall and husband Frank take a second honeymoon in the Scottish Highlands in 1945. When Claire walks through a cleft stone in an ancient henge, she's somehow transported to 1743. She encounters Frank's evil ancestor, British captain Jonathan ``Black Jack'' Randall, and is adopted by another clan. Claire nurses young soldier James Fraser, a gallant, merry redhead, and the two begin a romance, seeing each other through many perilous, swashbuckling adventures involving Black Jack. Scenes of the Highlanders' daily life blend poignant emotions with Scottish wit and humor. Eventually Sassenach (outlander) Claire finds a chance to return to 1945, and must choose between distant memories of Frnak and her happy, uncomplicated existence with Jamie. Claire's resourcefulness and intelligent sensitivity make the love-conquers-all, happily-ever-after ending seem a just reward. Doubleday Book Club main selection, Literary Guild alternate.
