Unforgettable characters. Rich historical detail. These are the hallmarks of Diana Gabaldon's work. Her <i>New York Times</i> bestselling Outlander novels have earned the praise of critics and captured the hearts of millions of fans. Here is the story that started it all, introducing two remarkable characters, Claire Beauchamp Randall and Jamie Fraser, in a spellbinding novel of passion and history that combines exhilarating adventure with a love story for the ages. <p/>Scottish Highlands, 1945. Claire Randall, a former British combat nurse, is just back from the war and reunited with her husband on a second honeymoon when she walks through a standing stone in one of the ancient circles that dot the British Isles. Suddenly she is a Sassenach--an "outlander"--in a Scotland torn by war and raiding clans in the year of Our Lord . . . 1743. <p/>Claire is catapulted into the intrigues of a world that threatens her life, and may shatter her heart. Marooned amid danger, passion, and violence, Claire learns her only chance of safety lies in Jamie Fraser, a gallant young Scots warrior. What begins in compulsion becomes urgent need, and Claire finds herself torn between two very different men, in two irreconcilable lives.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for Diana Gabaldon's Outlander novels</b> <p/> "Marvelous and fantastic adventures, romance, sex . . . perfect escape reading."<b>--<i>San Francisco Chronicle</i></b><i>, </i> on <i>Outlander</i><br> <i> </i><br> "History comes deliciously alive on the page."<b>--New York <i>Daily News</i></b><i>, </i>on<i> Outlander</i> <p/> "Gabaldon is a born storyteller. . . .
