It's a little bit insane how much I love these books. The Outlander series is one of the most addictive reading adventures I've ever experienced -- this, despite the practically absurd length of each book. Drums of Autumn is 1000+ pages, but so tightly plotted and beautifully written that there's really nothing I'd leave out. The story continues just a few months after the end of Voyager, with Claire and Jamie setting out on new adventures in the New World. The next generation gets prominent place in this book as well; the focus shifts often to Brianna and Roger, and while I was a bit doubtful at first, their story ends up being equally as compelling as supercouple Claire and Jamie. In many ways, Drums of Autumn could be an ending point for the series, as the last pages of the book bring so much to a satisfactory conclusion, and many lingering questions are finally answered. However, I'm delighted to know that there are more books available, and can't wait to dive into the next one.
