- Scottish Highlands, 1945. Claire Randall, a former British 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 clans in the year of Our Lord . . . 1743. Claire is catapulted into the intrigues of a world that threatens her life, and may shatter her heart. Marooned amid danger, passion, and violence, her only chance of safety lies in Jamie Fraser, a gallant young Scots warrior. What begins in compulsion becomes urgent need, and Claire finds herself torn between two very different men, in two irreconcilable lives.

“I returned the set because of the way the book was printed. The printing was so close to the binding edge that in order to read the beginning of the each line you would need to fold back the page, which over time would damage the binding. The publisher needs to make sure they have a larger left margin.” By Jane W. Reese
“This is my favorite all time fiction series; I’ve read all eight books a number of times. I bought this as a gift set to a friend who is new to the series, and got started reading my copy. She loves the packaging, and the stories.” By Jean S. Logan
