Congratulations to Diana Gabaldon on the publication of her latest story, "Virgins", about Jamie and Ian as very young mercenaries in France, before Jamie met Claire.
"Virgins" is a novella (about 28,300 words), one of the stories in the DANGEROUS WOMEN anthology, edited by George R.R. Martin and Gardner Dozois. It's a great story, a fascinating glimpse of Jamie and Ian as young men, and I enjoyed it very much.
For more information about "Virgins", see my FAQ page here.
