I really do love the Outlander collection. After a wild, crazy week (or month) at work I needed an escape. This was perfect. Zombies, oh my! But not the way you think. Gabaldon, ever the researcher and historian, delves into the class and racial structure of "new world" Jamaica, complete with snakes, charms, natural "remedies," and crazy twists. I'm always left feeling a little more knowledgeable about history when I finish something in this saga, full of historical accuracy and literary genius. I was pleasantly surprised at her nod to Zora Neale Hurston here as well.
Bravo, once more.
