Outlander is one of my favorite series of all time but the Lord John series hasn't really lived up to it for me. The first book in the series was definitely slow and I just couldn't get into it. This one was definitely better than the last but nowhere near as amazing as any of the actual Outlander books. Parts of it just felt slow and dragging. I will definitely be continuing on but I miss Claire and Jaime.
