A BREATH OF SNOW AND ASHES

Earphones Award Winner

by Diana Gabaldon | Read by Davina Porter

Fantasy • 58 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2005

The intensely loyal fans of the Outlander series will devour this sixth installment. Diana Gabaldon delivers both an exciting plot and lovely fine detail; reader Davina Porter provides sensational narration. It's a relief to hear Jamie Fraser's Scottish and Gaelic dialogue, rather than struggle with mental pronunciation. Porter shines in Claire Fraser's chapters of first-person narrative, portraying a warm and wise middle-aged beauty with steely determination and courage--an unusual combination in the eighteenth century, but not in her native twentieth century. As Jamie strives to maintain peace in his North Carolina settlement, he tries to ignore Claire's knowledge that the American Revolution is about to begin, and he must choose sides. N.M.C.
