Dragonfly in Amber - Diana Gabaldon
This is the second book by Diana Gabaldon in the Outlander series.
I am not disappointed in this book. The first book, Outlander was around 500 and some pages, this book, was around 750. I was not able to finish it in one day and would not have wanted to it was so good. Some books should be savored for no better word.
Ms. Gabaldon is a consummate novelist. I would liken her novels to Margaret Mitchell but that is my personal opinion. She has done a tremendous amount of research on the history of the periods and you feel transported into those times. Her verbiage is so descriptive that you can almost, see, hear, feel and taste what she is describing in her writing. The love story between Claire and Jaime is timeless.
This series is a must read for the person who wants a detailed and descriptive novel. It is woven with history, romance and paranormal activity.
I cannot wait to read the next book in the series.
Enjoy,
Susan
