This is one of the best written and best researched books I have ever read.  I read almost every historical fiction I can get my hands on, and this is the best.  Not only are Jamie and Claire intensely real characters, but the historical details are so vibrant and rich, that it really brings the 18th century to life.  Reading this book is like falling through the stones yourself.  The first 50 pages or so may not grab your attention, but if you keep going til the men in kilts show up, i promise your perseverance will be rewarded.  It is easy to fall in love with the characters - particularly Jamie Fraser, who is definitely the perfect man! In sum, a treat for romantics, history buffs and fiction lovers of all breeds.  Even my boyfriend loved this book!
