Narration In Pursuance Of Books The Fiery Cross (Outlander #5)
The year is 1771, and war is coming. Jamie Fraser’s wife tells him so. Little as he wishes to, he must believe it, for hers is a gift of dreadful prophecy—a time-traveler’s certain knowledge. Claire’s unique view of the future has brought him both danger and deliverance in the past; her knowledge of the oncoming revolution is a flickering torch that may light his way through the perilous years ahead—or ignite a conflagration that will leave their lives in ashes.Rating Appertaining To Books The Fiery Cross (Outlander #5)

Audio reread (at 2x). 2.5 stars.This is a long meandering book that might have a plot. It establishes the family on Frasers Ridge and follows them for about a year. There are medical and military related story lines, and a lot happens in 1400 pages. Some highlights: Clare sets up a penicillin factory on the mountain. Jamie develops a foot fetish. Bree takes on the persona of the Professor on Gilligan's Island. The family seems to be an unhealthy obsession about knowing who Jemmy's biologicalThere is so much happening in this novel. We start off with a Scottish Gathering. Jamie, Claire, Brianna, Roger, Jemmy, Fergus, Marsali, Germain and Joanie are all there to renew old acquaintances and to form alliances. There is to be two weddings (Brianna and Roger, and Duncan Innes and Jocasta Cameron) and three baptisms (Jemmy, Germain and Joanie). While at the Gathering, Lt. Archie Hayes issues a proclamation about the Hillsborough riots -- to bring those who participated in it to justice.
Finally finished the 5th book in this series (sometime this month) and I'm getting to the review part - YAY!I kind of really wish these books were a lot smaller. They just take so much time to read and to absorb all of the information thrown at you. I need time to decide if I like the book, characters, storyline, and everything else. Also, things definitely dragged on. I didn't care about what the hell was happening for more than half of the book. It just seemed like I was reading so much

Well, I finally finished The Fiery Cross. *sigh*I absolutely LOVE these books. This installment was no exception.....I found that this installment had so many deep emotional scenes, that when i finished, I felt that i had connected to the characters, emotionally, more then ever before. Starting with The Gathering, when Jamie calls his people out, and they all hold hands. The wedding scene between Roger and Brianna was both hilarious and touching. The various incidents at the Gathering really set
In the fifth installment of the Outlander series, time-traveler Claire Beauchamp Randall Fraser and her eighteenth century husband, Jamie, have established their homestead on Frasers Ridge in the mountains of Western North Carolina. Grumblings among colonists against British tyranny have begun, and Jamie and Claire are resigned to the fact that the American Revolution will take place and there is nothing they can to do stop it. Although Jamie sympathizes with the colonists, his allegiance, for
In the end, I wound up liking this book, but it was a long (so, so long) and bumpy road to get there. Somehow, this book is written by the same author who managed to pack an epic fantasy adventure into 800 pages with the original Outlander. Yet 1500 pages were needed here to... to do what? I don't even know. There's more than a couple sweet scenes between Jamie and Claire, but in between it's a wasteland. Over and over, characters are described as hiding a smile or having the corner of their
This review can also be found at Carole's Random Life.Anyone who knows me knows how much love I have for this series. I really enjoyed listening to this book. I have recently listened to the first four books in the series after having read them years earlier. This was the first time that I have experienced this book and I was a little nervous about listening to it instead of sitting down with a book but I think it worked out well in the end. So much happens in this book! That is really kind of
