This review is from: Last Highlander (Paperback)

I loved this book! It was full of humor, passion, excitement, and love. I laughed and cried over this book so its a definate keeper!
This is a time travel book. The Hero , Alasdair, has just helped Robert the Bruce to take Edinburgh Castle from the English. He and his men are celebrating when a witch dares Alasdair to follow her. He does and suddenly finds himself still at the castle but almost 700 years in the future. In 1998 american Morgan Lafayette is on vacation with her sister and brother-in-law. She finds the Highlander and thinks that he is an actor playing the part for the amusement of the tourist. She soon discovers though that something has happened to make all the history that she has known change. She begins to suspect that Alasdair is truley from the past and tries to help him get back. Alasdair at first thinks that Morgan is the legendary witch Margaine Le Fee and fights his growing feelings for her. He desparetly wants to return to his home in his time but his feelings for Morgan are a problem.

Together they must find a way to get Alasdair back. Along the way they encounter some very interesting people and some funny situations. Morgan's sister and brother-in-law are having a romance of their own but add to the over all book.

I cried when this book was done. It had a great ending and I hope if you read it you don't read the ending first, it will spoil the story. I hope to read others by this author.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Read, Sep 23 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Last Highlander (Paperback)

I read this book in search of something similar to 'The Outlander" series by Diana Gabaldon and I think I found it was well worth the search. The story started out a little slow with each of the characters in their own time and life, but by about 30-40 pages into the story I was hooked. I have to admit to staying up very late the Saturday evening I started it and spending almost my entire Sunday with my nose burried in the pages and my heart caught up in a love that could withstand the passage of time. This is a book I would highly recomend.

This review is from: Last Highlander (Paperback)

I took a while to get into this story but when I did I was so glad I persevered. It was a beautifull ending and well worth the wait.

Alisdair MacAuley is sent forward in time to change history even though he doesn't it. He thinks he is in a powerful scorceress castle when he meets Morgan Lafayette.

Thank you Claire for giving us this story.

1.0 out of 5 stars A Good Attempt, but does not quite work.
I bought this book last week. Normally I love Time Travel books based in Scotland (I'm Scottish and live in Scotland). But, unfortunately I am rapidly going off this book. Read more
