In this revealing compendium, acclaimed writer Diana Gabaldon shares her invaluable lessons for creating an immersive reading experience, from evoking a mood to using the power of emotions to communicate physical intimacy. You'll learn the difference between gratuitous sex and genuine encounters that move the story forward and how to handle less-than-savory acts that nevertheless serve a narrative purpose. Gabaldon also notes that sex can be conveyed instead of described.

The DFZ, the metropolis formerly known as Detroit, is the world’s most magical city with a population of nine million and zero public safety laws. That’s a lot of mages, cybernetically enhanced chrome heads, and mythical beasties who die, get into debt, and otherwise fail to pay their rent. When they can’t pay their bills, their stuff gets sold to the highest bidder. That’s when they call me. I’m a Cleaner: a freelance mage employed by the DFZ to sort through the mountains of magical junk people leave behind. It’s not a pretty job, or a safe one....

But there was another reason for the journey from her bleak English home to the Highlands: to meet the father she had never known, the Laird Maclean. Nothing prepared her, however, for the sight of the Scottish barbarian who was to escort her into his land...Iain Maitland, laird of his clan, a man more powerfully compelling than any she had ever encountered.

Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Publisher's summary
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. Her knowledge of the oncoming revolution is a flickering torch that may light his way through perilous years ahead - or ignite a conflagration that will leave their lives in ashes.

But when she ignores the warnings of her good friend Mr. Knightley and attempts to arrange a suitable match for her protegee Harriet Smith, her carefully laid plans soon unravel and have consequences that she never expected.

My whole world changed when I stepped inside the academy. Nothing is right about this place or the other students in it. Here I am, a mere mortal among gods...or monsters. I still can't decide which of these warring factions I belong to, if I belong at all. I only know the one thing that unites them is their hatred of me. Then there's Jaxon Vega. A vampire with deadly secrets who hasn't felt anything for a hundred years. But there's something about him that calls to me, something broken in him that somehow fits with what's broken in me. Which could spell death for us all.

Thank YOU!!!!
I had checked this audiobook via Interlibrary Loan from my local library (who had to get it from another state for the record), because the Unabridged Version was not available at the time (seemed like forever!). So, Thank You SOOO MUCH for being so extremely prompt about putting this out here for us as soon as you could!!! I use Audible through my Kindle, and I'm a happy reader/listener. Verra Happy!

Worth continuing the series
Great big exhaustive books, this series is LONG. This one is number 5 in a series of, I think it's up to 8 by now. So why keep reading? Gabaldon is a fabulous author. She must be to hold anyone's attention that long. Yes, there are times that I feel like I have "read that already," but she has a way of creating twists in the plot that just keep you going. I am not a series kind of reader. Just don't want to commit to that much time. But I didn't know this was a series until I had read/listened to the first one, my favorite so far, btw (It was my first Audible book). I will finish the series, but not all at once. I probably won't get around to #6 until next summer. But I'll look forward to it then.
The only reason I gave it 4 stars as a story and overall is because it is just so long. And the repetitious nature of certain things, like the "love making." I mean, really, 5 times in a 36 hour period? And these people are nearing 50? My brain just can't handle that.
As always, Davina Porter's narration is as good as it gets. She is part of the magic in this series.

FINALLY!!
I couldn't wait until this unabridged book came out, so I bought the actual book and read it with Davina Porter's brilliant performance voice in my head!
So just today, when I saw that The Fiery Cross is finally available, I snapped it up!
Okay, Okay, I haven't even listened to it yet, but who cares? I know it's wonderful and I will totally enjoy hearing what I already read.
Thank you, Audible!

Grand ~ !
This book is back to the grand read of the initial books in the series. The author continues to intrigue us with Jamie and Clair and other characters, although I must say their daughter Brianna and her husband Roger are among my least favorite. I find Brianna annoying, and Roger neutral at best, but it is a great series and worth the investment.

GREAT!
I listen to an average of 100 books a year, and the Outlander books are some of my most favorite! I find myself going back and listening (they have to be fantastic for me to want to re-listen) time and again. Davina Porter does a brilliant job with the narration!

LOVE THIS
Have listened to all Diana's books (twice)- including the abridged version (hated it). The detail and depth of her stories are what makes them so great, not to mention Davina's wonderful narration. I am in love with Jaime- and appreciate the research that went into the historical part of the novels. Would love for this series to go on forever. Great listen and well worth the credit!

Incredible Narrator!
Davina Porter has nuance for every accent, gender, and mood. She remembers every character and brings Diana Gabaldon’s imagination to life. I’m listening to the whole series for the second time (and I NEVER do that)!

Beautifully talented narration...
Another well-written novel, so well narrated by Porter. Her voices bring each character to life, lifting them effortlessly off the page and right into the room with me. I will happily listen to anything Porter reads, but I so enjoy listening to her read these stories in particular.

A Favorite
I love this book, obviously, since it's my third time through, the first two times having been via the hardback route.
Doubtlessly, considering the length, it took me quite some time to finish. But with bluetooth headphones, it became an old friend that kept me company while doing housework and on a few long drives over the holidays.
Among my favorite moments, without giving away a spoiler, are the buffalo hunting events, Snake Town, and naturally the triple climax of Wylie Landing, wax myrtle berry picking, and the final revelation of Jocasta's secret.
The ending is also wonderful, the last line being an award winner, and the revelations all being so neatly wrapped up that it could almost complete the series. But no, after thinking about it for a couple of days, there are still things to be resolved.
I find this book much easier to consume as an audible, since it doesn't require eyes and hands and i can do other things simultaneously as mentioned previously. I find myself wondering how long it took for Ms. Porter to record it. It must be difficult to keep straight so many voices and accents. She clearly doesn't even attempt Brianna's Boston/American accent, which is better than butchering it. I doubt anyone could do better, and I've made friends with her narration as well, having gone through the previous book twice and, while I'm waiting for another credit to listen to the next book in the v series, I think I'll just go through this one again.
