Historia
1231 A.D. After a nasty skirmish along the England/Scotland border at Bog Wood, a badly wounded knight has crawled off to die. As women from the Clan Scott fan out across the battlefield to collect the spoils of war, one woman breaks off from the pack. She is sickened by the tradition of stealing valuables off the dead and runs off to hide. In her hiding place, however, lingers the badly wounded knight. The young woman is frightened at first but her natural instinct to lend aid takes over. She tends the knight and saves his life.

Bit of a rip off

Many echoes of Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
This story played to girlish fantasies of popularity and men throwing themselves at main character. At the end the cat fights and perfect body just got to be too much.
Entertaining, decent plot twists; just a little to far fetched with the happily ever after.

Historia
Diana Gabaldon’s magnificent historical saga, begun with Outlander and Dragonfly in Amber, continues with this New York Times bestseller. Set in the intriguing Scotland of 200 years ago, the third installment in the romantic adventures of Jamie and Claire is as compelling as the first.

Nope!!!
Revisado: 04-13-15
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
the writing was lack-luster. This book did not keep my interest. It was shallow and padandic.As a lover of romance novels this one fell flat.
What do you think your next listen will be?
I will not be listening to this author any time soon.
What three words best describe Antony Ferguson’s performance?
He tried real hard and gave a good go.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Rescued by a Highlander?
all the scenes where Maddy McD isn't a simpering mess.
Any additional comments?
Maddy McD's character had so much potential to show as true women's strength and fortitude. She could have been a beacon of triumph over adversity but completely fell short. As a main character and driving force of the novel;Maddy McD was an unfilled and unfleshed out without a meaningful voice or goal.

Why we think it’s a great listen: An all-time Audible favorite that mixes historic fiction, adventure, and romance with one of the most fascinating literary devices: time travel. Outlander introduces an exhilarating world of heroism and breathtaking thrills as one woman is torn between past and present, passion and love. In 1945, former combat nurse Claire Randall returns from World War II and joins her husband for a second honeymoon. But their blissful reunion is shattered....

What made the experience of listening to Outlander the most enjoyable?
I loved the way Diane And Davina are like Peanut butter & Jelly.
What other book might you compare Outlander to and why?
As wonderful an epic as Gone with the Wind by M. Mitchell, the imagery and characters...
What does Davina Porter bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She can play the villain as well as the hero, I don't think my imagination could've done as good a job.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I love audible and can live without it. So well written!
Any additional comments?
I want my husband to read the series as well!
