Finally completed the further instalment of the Fraser clan. All set in the burgeoning US with the trails and tribulations of the search for Independence. Amazing how they get as involved with these prominent figures. A cracking yarn with that growing element of fantasy and time travel. Let’s hope the next book arrives quickly.
Somebody tell me not to give up on this book! I am halfway through and so disappointed in it so far. I loved the whole sequence with the bear, but that has been the only part so far that has been remotely compelling. I am a huge fan of this series and really want to love this book. Does it get better? Do I keep pushing? I wish i was enjoying this. :(

She knocked it out of the park once again. Love this series.
Actually amplified my understanding of American history--I had a copy of The First Salute by Barbara W. Tuchman, wondering how much more of it that I would read--and opened it to an account of the 'local' battle that was fought at King's Ridge by Cornwallis' commander in the province of North Carolina, Major Patrick Ferguson. He had proclaimed in 1780 that if patriot officers kept resisting British arms, he would "march over the mountains, hang their leaders and lay waste to the country with fire and sword." Wow, I found Diana Gabaldon had framed her historical fiction to bring the past alive--and I continue to read Tuchman's account of the American Revolution.
I've been waiting for this book to be Available where I am for a long time. I love the detail, the code-switching, the cultural interactions as well as the mix of my two favorite genres: historical fiction and fantasy. I am absolutely distraught by the cliffhanger!
