Gabaldon knows she has us by the heartstrings, unable to look away from characters we’ve spent thousands of pages and more than a decade getting to know ( Outlander was first published in 1991, and the books range in length from 640-1100+ pages). Heavy leaning into sci-fi components of the story that may or may not have a supremely Catholic agenda.įor all that, and several other issues, I instantly accepted Go Tell The Bees into my heart. No, I’m talking about narrative troubles: A dull, bloated first act. And I’m not talking about the 18th-century historical troubles that plague Claire and Jamie, the OTP love match so strong it bends the rules of time and space. In Go Tell The Bees That I Am Gone, Diana Gabaldon’s ninth installment in the Outlander series, longtime readers of the time-slip historical saga (that is romantic, to be sure, but not a romance) will find that the triumphs of previous books once again prevail here… but so do the troubles we’ve come to expect.
