My name is Karen Henry. I discovered the OUTLANDER books in 2006, and quickly became thoroughly addicted! I started this Outlandish Observations blog in August, 2008, as a central repository for news and information about Diana Gabaldon's books, including new and upcoming releases.
Things have changed a great deal in OUTLANDER fandom in recent years, with so many new fans discovering the books as a result of the STARZ TV series. Whether you're a newcomer to OUTLANDER or you've been reading the books for 30+ years, one thing we all have in common is our love for these books and characters and this amazing story that Diana Gabaldon has created.

I started with Dragonfly, then read Outlander and understood everything!!!
Fast forward a couple months, I was in Maine keeping Christmas with my middle sister and looking for a big book to read. Right after the new year, I would sell my car and be on a long flight to Europe where I would spend 11 months of 1994 with a backpack, a couple Eurail passes and tickets-accommodations for the Winter Olympic Games in Lillehammer, Norway. I found Outlander in a used book shop and, having recently learned a bit about the beauty of the Highlands from descendants of those who were forced out, I was keen to learn more. That book was incredible and began my never ending love affair with Jamie and Claire!
Several months into 1995, having returned from my big adventure, I bought Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber and Voyager all in hardcover. I was so thankful that I already had Voyager for "a wee keek" when I first dove into Dragonfly!
