• Dragonfly in Amber. DRAGONFLY IN AMBER is the second in my OUTLANDER series of major novels, and was first published in the U.S.A. On July 1, 1992. 25th Anniversary Edition For those people who have been asking if/when Random House, my main publisher in the U.S.A., might be going to do special Anniversary editions of the books following OUTLANDER yes, they are!
• Gabaldon will publish a book this year called Seven Stones To Stand Or Fall. It’s a collection of previously published novellas from the Outlander series but as a bonus, two new stories. It’s a great place to start if you’ve finished the main book series and wanted to start on her novellas.

The year is 1945. Claire Randall, a former combat nurse, is just back from the war and reunited with her husband on a second honeymoon when she walks through a standing stone in one of the ancient circles that dot the British Isles. Suddenly she is a Sassenach—an “outlander”—in a Scotland torn by war and raiding border clans in the year of Our Lord...1743.

Hurled back in time by forces she cannot understand, Claire is catapulted into the intrigues of lairds and spies that may threaten her life, and shatter her heart. For here James Fraser, a gallant young Scots warrior, shows her a love so absolute that Claire becomes a woman torn between fidelity and desire—and between two vastly different men in two irreconcilable lives.

The OUTLANDER series started by accident in the late 1980s when I decided to write a novel for practice. My goals were::

1. To learn what it took to write a novel, and
2. To decide whether I really wanted to do that for real.

I did, and I did—and here we all are, still trying to figure out what the heck you call books that nobody can describe, but that fortunately most people seem to enjoy.

In essence, these novels are Big, Fat, Historical Fiction, à la James Clavell and James Michener. However, owing to the fact that I wrote the first book for practice, didn’t intend to show it to anyone, and therefore saw no reason to limit myself, they include…

history, warfare, medicine, sex, violence, spirituality, honor, betrayal, vengeance, hope and despair, relationships, the building and destruction of families and societies, time travel, moral ambiguity, swords, herbs, horses, gambling (with cards, dice, and lives), voyages of daring, journeys of both body and soul…

you know, the usual stuff of literature.

I don’t like to do things I’ve already done, so (in spite of the fact that this is a series, and does involve the same central characters throughout) each book is unique in structure, tone, approach, and theme. The books can be read independently of each other (I can’t be sure that people seeing the newest one on a bookstore table will realize that it’s part of a series, so the books are (with minor exceptions) engineered to stand alone)mdash; but if you have a choice, I’d strongly recommend beginning at the beginning, with OUTLANDER, and reading through the story in order of publication (I’d say “in chronological order,” but that isn’t necessarily a useful term when you’re playing fast and loose with time, which I not infrequently do):

1. OUTLANDER, which is published as Cross Stitch in the U.K.
2. WRITTEN IN MY OWN HEART’S BLOOD. Nicknamed “MOBY,” the eighth book in the series was first published in the U.S. in the summer of 2014.
3. GO TELL THE BEES THAT I AM GONE— which I am currently writing and researching— will be the ninth book in the OUTLANDER series of novels. Completion and publishing dates have not been announced yet.

The Lord John Grey novels are in fact part of the series, rather than being a spin-off—but these novels are constructed differently and are focused on Lord John as a central character. Also, while they do include Jamie Fraser as an important character, they don’t include Claire, as many take place during a stretch of time where Claire wasn’t physically present. This Lord John sub-series can be read either independently of the main series, or as part of it.

If you choose to read the Lord John stories as part of the Outlander series, you can read these novels after reading VOYAGER. See my Chronology of the Outlander series for more details.

THE EXILE, A Graphic Novel

There is one more addition to the OUTLANDER series— THE EXILE, a graphic novel.

For those unfamiliar with the term, a graphic novel is—in essence—a comic book for grown-ups. {g} That is, the story is conveyed in visual images, augmented by dialogue. THE EXILE covers (roughly) the first third of the material in OUTLANDER, but is not just an adaptation of the original novel. The editor who invited me to do it (an opportunity I leapt at, as I grew up reading comic books, and in fact, used to write comic scripts for Walt Disney) asked for “a new Jamie and Claire story, but one set within the parameters of OUTLANDER.” To which I said, “Hmmmm….” And what I came up with is Jamie’s (and his godfather Murtagh’s) view of events—meaning that we see all the things Claire didn’t see, didn’t understand, or was kept out of.
