New book from Diana Gabaldon, due to be released on September 22, 2009: An Echo In The Bone.

If any of you haven't read Diana Gabaldon's books, I highly recommend them.

They start with Outlander, where Claire Randall, who is vacationing with her husband Frank in post-WWII Scotland, steps through a "miniature" stone henge, and into 18th century Scotland. It's an incredible read, full of adventure, action, romance, mystery. The historical details are stunning, and the characters are so real, so believable, it's hard to believe they're not real people. (And I would be shocked and surprised if you've read the books and aren't at least a little bit in love with Jamie. *g*)

Anyway. Now that I've discovered the new book coming out, I guess it's time to start saving my pennies. Because Diana Gabaldon is the only author (now that the Harry Potter books are done) I'll still buy hardcover books for.

Hmm. Might be time to start re-reading all of them. :)

SQUEEEEE!!!!! The week after my b-day. Yes, I only buy her hardcovers and then spend 24 hours closeted away. I cannot wait to see where this one goes and for once I am completely unspoiled. \o/

Oh God, I LOVE those books! Thanks for the heads up, I didn't think it was out until December!
