A Fugitive Green

release date: Jul 26, 2022
A Fugitive Green
The #1 New York Times bestselling author of the acclaimed Outlander series weaves a captivating story of secrets and intrigue, bringing together Lord John’s elder brother, Harold Grey, and his future wife, Minnie. This novella, originally published in Seven Stones to Stand or Fall, is now available as a standalone ebook. Minnie Rennie and her father operate a family business dealing in rare books and letters—with a sideline in forgery, blackmail, and burglary. After traveling from Paris to London for work, with a secret mission to find the mother she never knew, Minnie’s clandestine meeting with a client pseudonymously named Mr. Bloomer is interrupted when she crosses paths by chance with Harold Grey, Earl of Melton (and the Duke of Pardloe, though he spurns the title). An outcast from society, Hal is beset by troubles. Not only is he grieving the deaths of his wife, Esmé, and their unborn child, he’s still in shock over the revelations of her infidelity—an episode that ended with Hal killing her lover, Nathaniel Twelvetrees, in a duel. Minnie and Hal are immediately drawn to one another, but when Mr. Bloomer asks her to steal potentially incriminating letters between Esmé and Nathaniel that Hal still has in his possession, she finds herself swayed by fascination and empathy for a man she barely knows.

Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone

Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Diana Gabaldon returns with the “vast and sweeping” (The Washington Post) newest novel in the epic Outlander series. War leaves nobody alone. Neither the past, the present, nor the future offers true safety, and the only refuge is what you can protect: your family, your friends, your home. Jamie Fraser and Claire Randall were torn apart by the Jacobite Rising in 1746, and it took them twenty years of loss and heartbreak to find each other again. Now it’s 1779, and Claire and Jamie are finally reunited with their daughter, Brianna, her husband, Roger, and their children, and are rebuilding their home on Fraser’s Ridge—a fortress that may shelter them against the winds of war as well as weather. But tensions in the Colonies are great: Battles rage from New York to Georgia and, even in the mountains of the backcountry, feelings run hot enough to boil Hell’s teakettle. Jamie knows that loyalties among his tenants are split and it won’t be long before the war is on his doorstep. Brianna and Roger have their own worry: that the dangers that provoked their escape from the twentieth century might catch up to them. Sometimes they question whether risking the perils of the 1700s—among them disease, starvation, and an impending war—was indeed the safer choice for their family. Not so far away, young William Ransom is coming to terms with the mysteries of his identity, his future, and the family he’s never known. His erstwhile father, Lord John Grey, has reconciliations to make and dangers to meet on his son’s behalf and on his own, and far to the north, Young Ian Murray fights his own battle between past and future, and the two women he’s loved. Meanwhile, the Revolutionary War creeps ever closer to Fraser’s Ridge. Jamie sharpens his sword, while Claire whets her surgeon’s blade: It is a time for steel.

Ecos del pasado / An Echo in the Bone

release date: Sep 21, 2021
Ecos del pasado / An Echo in the Bone
Séptima entrega de la exitosa saga de Diana Gabaldon "Outlander" en la que se basa la popular serie de televisión. Una historia de amor diferente, en la que los encuentros fortuitos y el juego equívoco del tiempo se conjugan en un intrigante final. Jamie Fraser, antiguo jacobita y rebele a su pesar, tiene claras tres cosas sobre la sublevación de las colonias americanas: que ésta prosperará, que luchar en el lado vencedor no es garantía de supervivencia, y que prefiere la muerte a tener que enfrentarse en el campo de batalla a su hijo ilegítimo, un joven teniente del ejército británico. Claire Randall, por su parte, sabe que los americanos triunfarán, pero no a qué precio, y hará cuanto esté en su mano para garantizar la supervivencia y la felicidad de su esposo. Entretanto, en la relativa seguridad del siglo XX, la hija de Claire y Jamie, Brianna, y su marido, Roger MacKenzie, se han instalado en una casa escocesa con muchos siglos de historia. Allí Brianna encuentra unas cartas que revelan el amor de Claire por Jamie y sus viajes en el tiempo... Conscientes de que su propio futuro depende de ello, Brianna y Roger se ven obligados a encontrar lo antes posible pistas sobre el destino de Claire. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Diana Gabaldon’s brilliant storytelling has captivated millions of readers in her bestselling and award-winning Outlander saga. In An Echo in the Bone, the seventh volume, Gabaldon continues the extraordinary story of the eighteenth-century Scotsman Jamie Fraser and his twentieth-century time-traveling wife, Claire Randall. Jamie Fraser, former Jacobite and reluctant rebel, is already certain of three things about the American rebellion: The Americans will win, fighting on the side of victory is no guarantee of survival, and he’d rather die than have to face his illegitimate son—a young lieutenant in the British army—across the barrel of a gun. Claire Randall knows that the Americans will win, too, but not what the ultimate price may be. That price won’t include Jamie’s life or his happiness, though—not if she has anything to say about it. Meanwhile, in the relative safety of the twentieth century, Jamie and Claire’s daughter, Brianna, and her husband, Roger MacKenzie, have resettled in a historic Scottish home where, across a chasm of two centuries, the unfolding drama of Brianna’s parents’ story comes to life through Claire’s letters. The fragile pages reveal Claire’s love for battle-scarred Jamie Fraser and their flight from North Carolina to the high seas, where they encounter privateers and ocean battles—as Brianna and Roger search for clues not only to Claire’s fate but to their own. Because the future of the MacKenzie family in the Highlands is mysteriously, irrevocably, and intimately entwined with life and death in war-torn colonial America. With stunning cameos of historical characters from Benedict Arnold to Benjamin Franklin, An Echo in the Bone is a soaring masterpiece of imagination, insight, character, and adventure—a novel that echoes in the mind long after the last page is turned.

Outlander - Ein Hauch von Schnee und Asche
Im sechsten Band ihrer legendären Highland-Saga "Outlander" begeistert die Welt-Bestseller-Autorin Diana Gabaldon erneut mit einer spannenden Geschichte von leidenschaftlicher Liebe und dramatischem Kampf um Freiheit und Unabhängigkeit. Claire und Jamie, Gabaldons außergewöhnliches Liebes-Paar, das auch in der TV-Verfilmung der "Outlander"-Serie Fans weltweit in seinen Bann zieht, muss in diesem sechsten Band fürchten, in den Vorwehen des amerikanischen Unabhängigkeitskriegs alles zu verlieren: ihr Haus, ihre Zukunft, ihre Liebe. Im Jahr 1772 stehen die Vorzeichen in der Neuen Welt auf Krieg: Claire macht sich große Sorgen um ihren geliebten Ehemann: Zwar hat sie, die als Zeitreisende aus dem 20. Jahrhundert Wissen über die Zukunft besitzt, Jamie davor gewarnt, dass die amerikanischen Kolonien bald um ihre Unabhängigkeit kämpfen und diesen Krieg gewinnen werden, und Jamie hat sich um politische Neutralität bemüht. Doch nun bittet ihn der Gouverneur von North Carolina, das Hinterland für die britische Krone zu einen. Wird Jamie, wie schon in seiner schottischen Heimat, erneut auf der Seite der Verlierer stehen? Und was hat es mit jenem Zeitungsartikel aus der Zukunft auf sich, der von Claires und Jamies Tod bei einer Feuersbrunst berichtet? "Denn genau das ist die Outlander-Reihe: Historisch korrekt und trotzdem frisch, lustvoll und üppig erzählt." Neue Westfälische "Die US-amerikanische Autorin schreibt in flottem Stil und hat gründlich recherchiert: Durch ihre detaillierten Beschreibungen liefert sie dem Leser ein anschauliches Bild des 18. Jahrhunderts. So werden die Buchseiten zum persönlichen Steinkreis, der den Leser in die Vergangenheit zieht."

Seven Stones to Stand or Fall
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A magnificent collection of Outlander short fiction—including two never-before-published novellas—featuring Jamie Fraser, Lord John Grey, Master Raymond, and many more, from Diana Gabaldon Among the seven spellbinding pieces there is “The Custom of the Army,” which begins with Lord John Grey being shocked by an electric eel and ends at the Battle of Quebec. Then comes “The Space Between,” where it is revealed that the Comte St. Germain is not dead, Master Raymond appears, and a widowed young wine dealer escorts a would-be novice to a convent in Paris. In “A Plague of Zombies,” Lord John unexpectedly becomes military governor of Jamaica when the original governor is gnawed by what probably wasn’t a giant rat. “A Leaf on the Wind of All Hallows” is the moving story of Roger MacKenzie’s parents during World War II. In “Virgins,” Jamie Fraser, aged nineteen, and Ian Murray, aged twenty, become mercenaries in France, no matter that neither has yet bedded a lass or killed a man. But they’re trying. . . . “A Fugitive Green” is the story of Lord John’s elder brother, Hal, and a seventeen-year-old rare book dealer with a sideline in theft, forgery, and blackmail. And finally, in “Besieged,” Lord John learns that his mother is in Havana—and that the British Navy is on their way to lay siege to the city. Filling in mesmerizing chapters in the lives of characters readers have followed over the course of thousands of pages, Gabaldon’s genius is on full display throughout this must-have collection. “Gabaldon is in fine form . . . weaving together characters’ lives, connecting plot points, and showing tantalizing glimpses of the larger Outlander world, of which this reader can never get enough.”—Historical Novels Review

Written in My Own Heart's Blood

release date: Jun 10, 2014
Written in My Own Heart's Blood
In her now classic novel Outlander, Diana Gabaldon told the story of Claire Randall, an English ex-combat nurse who walks through a stone circle in the Scottish Highlands in 1946, and disappears . . . into 1743. The story unfolded from there in seven bestselling novels, and CNN has called it “a grand adventure written on a canvas that probes the heart, weighs the soul and measures the human spirit across [centuries].” Now the story continues in Written in My Own Heart’s Blood. 1778: France declares war on Great Britain, the British army leaves Philadelphia, and George Washington’s troops leave Valley Forge in pursuit. At this moment, Jamie Fraser returns from a presumed watery grave to discover that his best friend has married his wife, his illegitimate son has discovered (to his horror) who his father really is, and his beloved nephew, Ian, wants to marry a Quaker. Meanwhile, Jamie’s wife, Claire, and his sister, Jenny, are busy picking up the pieces.
