  • A Valuable Resource for Fans of Outlander.

    I wanted more Outlander and not the Lord John Grey series. The Outlander content is excellent and very useful as I contemplate Book 9's release. Because it is usually 2 or more years between new releases, the Outlandish Companion brings out the reminders needed to pick up the flow of the series.

  • A fascinating adjunct....

    This is a must-have for readers wanting to explore the myriad of details Herself weaves into her books. Whether a reader's inquiry involves a character, pronunciation of a Gaelic word, questions about costuming, or curiosity about medicinal plants used in the 18th century, this book has answers. It is a fascinating adjunct to The Fiery Cross, A Breath of Snow and Ashes, Echo in the Bone and Written in My Own Heart's Blood.

  • Great Book

    What I LOVE most is the Gaelic Dictionary in this one, helps to pronounce the words and what they mean. I would have bought it just for that part.
