The Fiery Cross by Diana Gabaldon

 

I love this saga by Gabaldon and you need to be willing to dedicate some time to get through the books. It is well worth it, but I am always glad when I get to the end. And thankfully the end of this one did not leave me hanging like some of her others.

This is the continuation of the saga with Jamie and Claire, Roger and Bree, and the life that they are leading and where it takes them. 

In this volume there are marriages, a short war, death, and near death. There are past situations that need to be dealt with and figuring out how to take care of them and still be able to live with yourself is a huge dilemma in and of itself. 

There is a little interesting twist in dealing with time travel of the past/future and I am curious how Gabaldon will incorporate this in the following books. She never disappoints and is an amazing story teller. It amazes me how she keeps it all straight and cohesive.

If you haven't read any of the saga make sure you start with Outlander and be prepared to be pulled into an amazing story that keeps you wanting more. You will spend many, many hours getting lost in this wonderful tale of love and pain, sacrifice and triumph.
