Drums of Autumn by Diana Gabaldon

You had me at, "Oh, aye..." This installment was very nearly as good as the first one. Outlander was my favorite so far but this one is taking a very close second. I laughed, I cried, I held my breath. And I actually mourned the end. I was more than a little depressed on the day I woke up and didn't have this book to fill my time! I'm trying to ration the three remaining books in the series but I'm anxious to get back to the rowdy Frasers.
