Publisher Description

For anyone who wants to spend more time with the Outlander characters and the world they inhabit, Diana Gabaldon here opens a door through the standing stones and offers a guided tour of what lies within.

In this beautifully illustrated compendium of all things Outlandish, Gabaldon covers the first four novels of the main series, including:

• full synopses of Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber, Voyager, and Drums of Autumn

• a complete listing of the characters (fictional and historical) in the first four novels in the series, as well as family trees and genealogical notes

• a comprehensive glossary and pronunciation guide to Gaelic terms and usage

• The Gabaldon Theory of Time Travel, explained

• frequently asked questions to the author and her (sometimes surprising) answers

• an annotated bibliography

• essays about medicine and magic in the eighteenth century, researching historical fiction, creating characters, and more

• professionally cast horoscopes for Jamie and Claire

• the making of the TV series: how we got there from here, and what happened next (including “My Brief Career as a TV Actor”)

• behind-the-scenes photos from the Outlander TV series set
