From AudioFile

The sixth book of the adventures of Claire and Jamie Fraser, set in North Carolina from 1772 through 1777, provides glimpses of the beginnings of the American Revolutionary War and reacquaints us with the extended Fraser clan and friends. Geraldine James enchants the listener with her varied accents, from British and Scots to twentieth-century American and an occasional Irish brogue. Using foreknowledge and their usual survival skills, Claire doctors the hurts and Jamie avenges the wrongs. James's performance brings out the adventurer in the listener. Some pops and skips are audible throughout, adding charm to the narration and the ever complicated plots. This story vibrates with the energy of an America seeking its freedom and the battles that ensue, philosophically and physically, throughout this tumultuous period. M.B.K.

From Booklist

After waiting nearly four years since The Fiery Cross (2001), readers will find every expectation fulfilled in the sixth book of the popular Outlander series. Gabaldon shines as she unfolds the continuing story of the Frasers, heartbreakingly heroic highlander Jamie and his time-traveling wife Clare. Set during the three years leading up to the American Revolution, this compulsively readable mix of authentically set historical fiction and completely satisfying romance maps both violent loss and strong family ties. On the eve of war much is changing on Fraser's Ridge and Jamie and Claire encounter much harm. This vivid and haunting novel, therefore, brings an aching sadness, but it is balanced with sheer joy, revelation, and solace. The large scope of the novel allows Gabaldon to do what she does best, paint in exquisite detail the lives of her characters. Gabaldon's ability to invoke the heroic and the harrowing writ large, while also creating moments where you dare not take a breath for fear of missing something tiny and fine, is her hallmark. For it is in describing the sound of rain on the roof, Jamie's injured hand, or the understanding between father and daughter that the world of the novel comes alive and offers readers an enthralling experience.

This review is from: A Breath of Snow and Ashes (Hardcover)
I am an avid fan of the Outlander series but was very disappointed with the Fiery Cross. I had high hopes for A Breath of Snow and Ashes but found I was just as frustrated when I started to read it as I was with FC. Not much plot, too much gratuitous titillation, etc., etc. Once I started to view each chapter as a short story, however, I found it much improved.

I felt that things picked up towards the end and were reminiscent of the earlier books but found the dual kidnappings rather redundant. While I'd rather not say goodbye to Jamie and Claire, it's probably best to wrap things up and start something new.

This review is from: A Breath of Snow and Ashes (Mass Market Paperback)
I just finished A Breathe of Snow & Ashes. I tried to slow down the reading just to make it last as long as I could, but like all wonderful stories, I just had to finish it. Now I'll just carry memories of Claire and Jamie inside until the next book comes out.

This is the sixth book in the Outlander series and wonderfully tells the story of Claire and Jamie and their family as they eke out a living in early North American life. It's not just a story of surviving as pioneers; it's a story of a family, with richly described characters and tells of their great love, trials and challenges. Many questions are answered and revealed as Diana skilfully writes the tale of Claire the time-traveller. It's true that Diana's talent for describing things in detail makes you start to view things differently.

I heard Diana speak at a book signing for her latest novels in the Lord John series and she is as much a pleasure to listen to as to read. What I loved best was her comment that she wanted to write a book about people that stay together and make a marriage work. I've been so sick of silly romances that are only about sex and getting married. Diana tells a story about long term relationships and the kind of intimacy that we all long to have.

Thanks Diana for another awesome read. We're all waiting eagerly for the next book in the series :)

This review is from: A Breath of Snow and Ashes (Paperback)
The only bad thing about the OUTLANDER serie is that... there is not enough of them!

I tried to read slower to keep the last book longer... not an option, I HAD to know.

Looking forward to the next one, September 2009 seems too far :(
