jeannekc 's review for:
Lord John and the Hand of Devils
by Diana Gabaldon
Not really Gabaldon's greatest work, but somewhat an essential read to have the complete story of Lord John Grey. This really isn't a novel, but rather a short story and two novellas. Lord John and the Succubus, one of the novellas was a rather amusing look at the germanic lore of the era. Where Lord John and the Soldier's Ghost had some interesting insights into the harsh religious practices of the 1700's Methodists, not to mention the politics! Not really much of a ghost story though. The ghost only made a brief cameo appearance an was never mentioned again! Actual fact, none of these stories are really essential to either the Lord John or the Outlander series. You can easily give them a miss and not feel like you're missing a thing!
