Outlander Boxed Set: Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber, Voyager, Drums of Autumn

There's never been a better time to discover the novels behind the blockbuster Starz original series Outlander. Blending rich historical fiction with riveting adventure and a truly epic love story, here are the first four books of Diana Gabaldon's New York Times bestselling saga that introduced the world to the brilliant Claire Randall and valiant Highlander Jamie Fraser:

OUTLANDER
DRAGONFLY IN AMBER
VOYAGER
DRUMS OF AUTUMN

Scottish Highlands, 1945. Claire Randall, a former British combat nurse, is just back from the war and reunited with her husband on a second honeymoon when she walks through a standing stone in one of the ancient circles that dot the British Isles. Suddenly she is a Sassenach--an "outlander"--in a Scotland torn by war and raiding clans in the year of Our Lord . . . 1743. Claire is catapulted into the intrigues of a world that threatens her life, and may shatter her heart. Marooned amid danger, passion, and violence, her only chance of safety lies in Jamie Fraser, a gallant young Scots warrior. What begins in compulsion becomes urgent need, and Claire finds herself torn between two very different men, in two irreconcilable lives.

作者簡介

黛安娜‧蓋伯頓（Diana Gabaldon）

　　1988年，黛安娜‧蓋伯頓為了「練習」，而開始寫小說。不料一寫就寫出RITA年度最佳小說作家獎、浪漫時代生涯成就獎（Romantic Times Career Achievement Award）、「鵝毛筆獎」（科幻／奇幻／驚悚類），寫出這套全球長銷二十年不墜，在美、英、加、澳、德多國名列暢銷冠軍的《Outlander異鄉人》系列。

　　《Outlander異鄉人》系列的成就，還在於跨足奇幻、推理、愛情、羅曼史、歷史，在各領域都獲得極高評價。從《Outlander異鄉人》系列中「約翰伯爵」一角延伸而出的歷史推理小說系列，如今也已出版九本。

　　《Outlander異鄉人》這部以20及18世紀蘇格蘭高地為背景的歷史愛情奇書，以細膩的人物刻劃、獨到的幽默感擄獲全球讀者的心。書中翔實的歷史細節不禁會使你以為是出自托爾金的手筆，而細膩的人物心理描寫也可媲美娥蘇拉．勒瑰恩。

　　黛安娜‧蓋伯頓確實學識淵博，感情也如筆下人物細膩，但她的另一個身分在愛情小說一片家庭主婦作者中絕對屬於異數：她是北亞利桑那大學海洋生態學博士與榮譽人文學博士，曾在大學教授解剖學，更是多本科技、電腦期刊的撰稿、評論人。

　　Diana Gabaldon is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the wildly popular Outlander novels Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber, Voyager, Drums of Autumn, The Fiery Cross, A Breath of Snow and Ashes (for which she won a Quill Award and the Corine International Book Prize), An Echo in the Bone, and Written in My Own Heart s Blood as well as the related Lord John Grey books Lord John and the Private Matter, Lord John and the Brotherhood of the Blade, Lord John and the Hand of Devils, and The Scottish Prisoner; one work of nonfiction, The Outlandish Companion; and the Outlander graphic novel The Exile. She lives in Scottsdale, Arizona, with her husband."
