SynopsisNEW 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.

Diana Gabaldon can sure tell a story!
This book has several tales that let us know more about the background of some of our favorite characters in the Outlander series. They are all great. Diana surely is a wonderful writer who understands human nature and can make her characters all believable and sympathetic.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Seven Stones Stand!
This collection of stories by the amazing storyteller Diana Gabaldon is as intriguing and enjoyable as her Outlander book series, and gives a bigger picture of the lives and characters of the people and events in her books! Highly recommend this bonus book, especially if, like me, you are having to bide your time waiting for the next installment of her "big books."Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu
