The year is 1771. Claire Randall is still an outlander, out of place and out of time. But now she is linked by love to her only anchor - Jamie Fraser. They have crossed oceans and centuries to build a life together in North Carolina. But tensions, both ancient and recent, threaten members of their clan. Knowing that his wife has the gift of prophecy, James must believe Claire, though he would prefer not to. Claire has shared a dreadful truth - there will, without a doubt, be a war.

the recording is all on one file which caused problems in playing it on my phone. As I don't listen to books at my desk this caused real issues.

Eighteenth-century Scotsman James Fraser and his 20th-century time-travelling wife, Claire Randall, have emigrated to the beautiful countryside of the Royal Colony of North Carolina. The year is now 1771, and dissidents are stirring throughout the American colonies. Claire forewarns James of the impending war and the dangers it may bring to their clan. Will her knowledge of America’s tumultuous revolution be enough to guide them through a dangerously uncertain future?

The year is 1772, and the rift between Britain and its American colonies has put a frightening word into the minds of all concerned: revolution. In the backwoods of North Carolina, violence has already reared its ugly head, as cabins have been burned to the ground. To preserve the colony for King George III, the governor pleads with Jamie to bring the people together and restore peace. But Jamie has the privilege, although some might call it a burden, of knowing that war cannot be avoided.

In the past the elders had encyclopaedic memories. They could name all the animals and plants across the landscape and the stars in the sky, too. Yet most of us struggle to memorise more than a short poem. Using traditional Aboriginal Australian songlines as the key, Lynne Kelly has identified the powerful memory technique used by indigenous people around the world.

thoroughly enjoyable, practical and enlightening
Revisado: 07-18-16
Would you listen to The Memory Code again? Why?
This book was thoroughly enjoyable in both is revelations around memory devices used by both neolithic cultures and indigenous cultures around the world (they may have been understood by others but this is the first account of them that made sense to me). The book was beautifully read by Louise Silverson. I had heard of the oral histories of the indigenous cultures of New Zealand and Australia but had never conceived any notion of how they achieved their incredible feats of memory. Lynne beautifully outlines some of these methods and more importantly, for me, helps me understand how country and songlines become so important to telling that story for indigenous groups - a concept I knew about but couldn't quite comprehend previously. It also occurs to me that so many 'libraries' were destroyed by our forebears inability to understand the impact of taking children away from their countries and cultures and displacing whole groups - how much knowledge have been lost because a generation wasn't taught these histories. We still ache as a culture when we think about the great libraries of Alexandria and the Serapeum being burnt and lost and the vast amount of knowledge that was lost as a result - even more so when one considers the hundreds of years (thousands in some cases) being lost by wilful ignorance and prejudice on the part of a culture that was arrogant enough to consider the indigenous cultures as inferior or uneducated. Thank you Lynne Kelly for a wonderful book written for the lay person like me to understand.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Lynne Kelly and Epsi - I can just see them on their walks
Which scene was your favorite?
Lynne walking us through her songline journey
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

I enjoyed Judith Orloff's account - this seemed like a down to earth and heartfelt account of her experiences and gives me confidence that I too can learn to tap into the divine.

The perception that we have of clairvoyance may be from the movies, which tends to sensationalize everything. But when Psychic Development: Sight Beyond Sight: Using Clairvoyance Safely is listened to we get a more realistic picture of the entire process. Through the authors eyes we learn not only what clairvoyance is but we also get the opportunity to get an insight into the process of this ancient art along with the benefits that come from such a thing. We are also exposed to some of the dangers that can happen if it is not practiced properly.

this is one of those books that are written to give the author the right to say that they are a writer - why Audible bothered to make this an audible book I have no idea. Not only was it very basic it ended up with dire warnings.
