Diana Babaldon is an extremely talented author who takes you deep into the lives of her characters. The book keeps you engaged from beginning to end. The physical book itself is of good quality and the price is good.

I would need to read what "Good" means. The front cover was ripped and it is well used. I've bought other books in this category that are in better shape. Otherwise it was a great price so I probably shouldn't complain.

I think this series of books accumulated in my moms collection since Diana first book, "The Outlander." One by one my mom had bought the entire series and they sat on her shelf for the last couple years. She has already read the entire series 3 time over and lent it to my aunt who's read it 2times over also. Just recently i started my f/t job which happens to have me working shift work, which is why i took up a little bit of reading. I never used to like reading, i was in the learning center when i was little because my reading comprehension was super bad. Anyways, i picked up a few steamy books which i went through the 3-4 of them pretty quick on night shifts and then i was stuck with not knowing what to look for in a book and not knowing a good author seems how the books i had just finished were the only ones by that particular new author. My mom introduced me to The Outlander series and i havent stopped reading since i cracked the first page. I went from hating reading and anything to do with books to wizzing through the first book with flying colors. My finace would have to ask me to put the book down to help with stuff around the house. The book(s) just capture you! There happy, sad, good, bad and theres twists and turns... Its absolutely awesome! As i was saying above, my mom had this series and i had borrowed the first book. And by the time i was half through the first I had ordered this series for my own collection knowing that one of these days my mom would prob re-read the entire series again and i would need my own. I recommend this series to any new readers, any one who like historical romance, or to anyone thats looking for a new roller coaster to read... Love Diana's work.Read full review
I had purchased series 2-7 of this book set, so only needed the first book. It came very quickly in the mail and I could not wait to start it, so I could continue with the other books. I'm only halfway through the 2nd book in the series, but I am still extremely interested and compelled to read all the books in this series. A great author who puts great attention to detail and authenticity for the time period. I'm really enjoying this series of books (and loved the series on television)!

The books have more detail than the tv series! I love the tv show but am anxious for any extra information from the books. Have started reading volume 1 already. Thanks for offering a great package deal!

I love the series on Starz. The books are so good its hard to put down! Series is close to the books so far but some scenes are a combination of 2 or more than in the Book. Great read!

My favorite books at a marvelous price! They arrived in pristine condition all ready for me to enjoy. I had previously listened to all eight books on Audible - something I did three times over a two year span. Listening is great when you have other chores to do but nothing beats losing yourself in a great book . These are truly wonderful books that have prompted my interest in my own heritage, taught me some interesting history and have deepened my relationship with my own "Jamie". The only draw back is that I had to buy the 8th book separately. No, the greatest drawback is that there really should be a 9th book...so many interesting ideas left suspended!!!

I purchased this book series for my wife who has enjoyed the television series. While you expect the book to be much more in-depth than the television series/movie, this author has done so artfully.

This is the first of Diana Gabaldon books that I have read, and I found it to be quite interesting. A little different from what I am used to, but upon the advice of another, I decided to read this particular one to see if it were to my taste. I must admit, very interesting, and I will try others written by this same author as well. Try it, I think you will be pleasantly surprised as I was.
Book was exactly as advertised. It’s a great story, signed by a wonderful author. The recipient is going to LOVE it! Thank you!
