The recent announcement by Diana Gabaldon that her newest Outlander book has been completed shows just how much time flies and yet stands still at the same time. It takes just a few seconds of reading one of the wonderful experts for "Bees" before we are once again swept into "Outlander World" as if it's only weeks rather than years since we last left Jamie and Claire running down the hillside when they realised that their family had returned from the future! </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">I have big plans for reading this book! I'm having a few days where I'm not to be disturbed whilst I enjoy it and above all I'm not going to rush!!!! My plan (just like the plans I had with the previous big books) is to read it slowly and saviour every word rather than rushing ... Oh who am I kidding? I'll probably start read it at super speed and then regret it when I realise I'm not going to get to read any more new stuff for such a long time! </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>Go Tell The Bees That I Am Gone by Diana Gabaldon is now available to pre-order from Amazon ...</b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A FUGITIVE GREEN</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> “Minnie Rennie had secrets. Some were for
sale and some were strictly her own. She touched the bosom of her dress
and glanced toward the lattice-work door at the rear of the shop.
Still closed, the blue curtains behind it drawn firmly shut.”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> [In
which, a 17-year-old apprentice dealer in rare books is sent from
Paris to England by her father, to obtain incunabula and medieval books
of devotion—and whatever secrets of political intrigue or finance may
come to hand in the process. In the course of her business, though,
Minnie meets Harold Grey (Lord John’s elder brother), the newly-widowed
(and alarmingly deranged) Duke of Pardloe, and things Fall Out.]</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> BESIEGED</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> “ Lord John Gray dipped a finger gingerly into the little stone pot, withdrew it, glistening, and sniffed cautiously.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> “Jesus!” </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
“Yes, me lord. That’s what I said.” His valet, Tom Byrd, face
carefully averted, put the lid back on the pot. “Was you to rub
yourself with _that_ stuff, you’d be drawing flies in their hundreds,
same as if you were summat that was dead. _Long_ dead,” he added, and
muffled the pot in a napkin for additional protection.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> “Well, in
justice,” Grey said dubiously, “I suppose the whale _is_ long dead.”
He looked at the far wall of his office. There were a number of flies
resting along the wainscoting, as usual, fat and black as currants
against the white plaster. Sure enough, a couple of them had already
risen into the air, circling lazily toward the pot of whale oil. “Where
did you get that stuff?”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> [In which Lord John, anticipating a
voyage home to England after his brief stint as military Governor of
Jamaica, instead finds himself on his way to Cuba, where the British
navy is preparing to lay siege to Havana---and where the Dowager Duchess
of Pardloe (aka John’s mother) is a guest (and potential hostage) of
Governor Juan de Prado.]</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Time passes quickly in internet world and I can't believe it's almost 5 years since I made this Fergus Fraser casting video on Youtube! Looking back at it a lot has changed and I'm certain that none of my "finalists" will be chosen. I have to admit that I still love the idea of Aiden Turner playing Fergus but I'm fairly sure he's tied up with being the delectable Ross Poldark for the foreseeable future (I'm actually really happy about that!). </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I love the casting of Romann Berrux for the young Fergus/Claudel and I suppose we will have to look for a more grown up version of him for the adult Fergus Fraser. </span> </div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have found this really great Youtube video which summerises the first season of Outlander in just 6 minutes. It's a great reminder of what happend and can only build up the excitement for season 2 when we see our favourite characters in France! I can't wait for the new episodes and hope everyone else is looking forward to it as well. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We were all excited when Zazzle started their own <a href="http://www.zazzle.com/outlanderfanmerch?rf=238906746547238129" target="_blank"><b>Outlander Fan Merch Store</b></a> with their official merchandise but it was also upsetting that all their previous fan made Outlander merchandise had been removed for copyright reasons!</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSWyDykJw1-Xv1JGd6sBh_tM7Lf9VaulSsGdsOKvp18liGvmu5Lnxo7KgGuuaOgzrqk4iCyMWwL-GPxgQKONtbvzBETa6wvYrDRZpJTE9va7a5xiR_8iLvf7RbNZlhOIMUx9h5iMnOq6a4/s1600/Take+me+to+Lallybroch.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSWyDykJw1-Xv1JGd6sBh_tM7Lf9VaulSsGdsOKvp18liGvmu5Lnxo7KgGuuaOgzrqk4iCyMWwL-GPxgQKONtbvzBETa6wvYrDRZpJTE9va7a5xiR_8iLvf7RbNZlhOIMUx9h5iMnOq6a4/s1600/Take+me+to+Lallybroch.JPG" /></a><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">However, all is not lost because Zazzle have opened up the floodgates to allow fans to resubmit their Outlander designs and create new ones as well! There are some <a href="http://www.zazzle.com/outlanderfanmerch/rules?rf=238906746547238129" target="_blank"><b>terms and conditions</b></a> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">as to what can be added onto designs and we can't design on every single product but I'm really looking forward to what we (as fans) can come up with! </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Let's get the creative juices flowing ...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When it was first announced that Outlander was going to finally become a TV series we were all waiting in anticipation for the announcement of who would play Jamie and the vast majority of us were highly delighted when the little known Sam Heughan was given the role. There were the expected moans and groans from some people but it appears that when picking male actors they really know what they are doing!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">However, filming for the second series is well under way and there is still no real mention of the casting of my second favourite male, Roger Wakefield MacKenzie! I'll be honest and say that I'm getting worried! Have they found someone and are keeping him a secret or are they struggling to find someone who is suitable? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Looking at some old posts in this blog I found this post called <a href="http://theoutlandermovie.blogspot.co.uk/2011/07/roger-mackenzie-in-flesh.html" target="_blank">Roger MacKenzie in the Flesh</a> where I picked a few actors who I thought would be good for the role. Well I haven't changed my mind but logistically some of them are tied up for a while with other projects. Aiden Turner would be a wonderful choice but he's playing dashing Ross Poldark for the next couple of years and Christian Bale is far too important now to do a lowly TV show! </span><br />

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Something to feast your eyes on until you wait for the next episode of Outlander on April 4th! </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Outlander books are without a doubt my favourite but the Poldark books are a close second and coming soon to UK TV is the new Poldark TV series! They are an adaptation from the books by Winston Graham and are about a minor landowner returning to Cornwall from the Revolutionary War in America! The books were made into a TV series in the 70's and it was a resounding success but the new TV series looks far more in depth and hopefully will do justice to the original story. The main character in the story is Ross Poldark who was originally played by Robin Ellis but will now be played by Aiden Turner who I'm sure you'll agree is very easy on the eye! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here is the trailer ...</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now you may be wondering what this has to do with Outlander</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At the end of the trailer you see Ross Poldark/Aidan Turner standing at the harbour at Charleston in Cornwall. The boat you see in the harbour is called the Phoenix and it is the same one which was used for the boat which takes Jamie and Claire to France! The reason I know this is because I was there last summer not long after they finished filming Poldark and they were in the process refitting the ship for a "new TV show" ... which I now know to be Outlander! Normally the ship is available for the public to go on and have a look around (or in my case play pirates on!) but it was closed when I was there as they didn't want the public to make a mess of the new shiny paint job! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the UK we have been waiting for well over a year to hear news of not only when we get to see Outlander but the station it will be shown on. It's with a lot of disappointment that I found out yesterday that rather than making it available to the general public Outlander is only going to be shown on Amazon Prime!</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>THAT IS NOT A VALID OPTION!</b> </span></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I know of several long time
fans of Outlander who aren't very internet savvy and will have no chance of getting access to Amazon prime. The elderly lady down the road has been asking me
on a regular basis if I've heard any news and now I'm going to have to
tell her that she won't be able to watch it until it comes out on DVD? She, along with many other fans, are going to feel let down by this choice. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Basically my own experience of Amazon Prime is as follows: I took out a trial package before Christmas and out of all the movies and TV shows on there I could find only one movie to watch which hadn't already been on the TV. Once I'd got free postage on my Christmas presents I decided to cancel the subscription. Amazon Prime isn't overly expensive but an additional £5.99 per month alongside the TV License and for some people a Sky subscription all adds up! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The show is set in the UK and filmed in the UK using mainly UK actors and yet we are not going to be able to watch it unless we have internet access and take out an Amazon Prime subscription. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In December it was announced that Outlander would be shown in the UK "next year"! This is particularly vague as it not only doesn't give any indication of when in 2015 nor does it give any indication of which station it will be shown on. Luckily I have ... ehem ... already seen it ... but there are thousands of other fans who are patiently waiting and are being very patient and understanding. There is an elderly fan down my street who asks me for news every time I see her and I'm sure she thinks I'm lying about the TV series actually existing. I'm also getting fed up of telling friends, family and random people in the street (OK so I lied about the last part) how great the TV show is and then having to tell them that I have no idea when it's actually on ... or which station! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I know there are procedures which are put into place to make these announcement timely and well orchestrated but PLEASE LET US KNOW SOMETHING SOON! </span><br />
<br />

has without a doubt been very very popular (even if it hasn't been shown in the UK yet!) and it comes as little surprise that it is already winning awards despite the first season only being half way through! I was however a little surprised that it's already time for a DVD release as it only seems such a short time since it was first shown on TV (not in the UK ... I'm not at all bitter!).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Outlander DVD is available to pre-order from Amazon and will be released on 3rd March. Looking at the subtitle it's season one volume one and includes the first eight episodes as well as additional extras! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of the questions Diana Gabaldon is asked constantly (the woman's patience never ceases to amaze me) is why Scotland and why kilts? Putting aside the whole Dr. Who explanation most people can appreaciate the beauty of a man in a kilt but don't remember when they fell in love with the idea of naked bits open to the elements! I on the other hand remember exactly when I realized the advantage of a man wearing a kilt in the traditional Scottish way! Rather than give details I'll pass you over to Liam Neeson and Jessica Lang in <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/079283366X/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=079283366X&linkCode=as2&tag=outlandermovieblogspot-20">Rob Roy</a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=outlandermovieblogspot-20&l=as2&o=1&a=079283366X" height="1" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" width="1" />

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I finished reading Diana Gabaldon's latest book the other day and can honestly say that it's the best in the series so far! I'm not just saying that because I've been waiting in anticipation for it for four years but because everything about it is so well written and well planned out. I absolutely loved Cross Stitch (Outlander) but with twenty odd years down the line if Diana had been as experienced then as she is now I imagine the book would have been outstanding! Her writing ability has improved by leaps and bounds since she started as an author and as Cross Stitch was an amazing book that's saying a lot about <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0385344430/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0385344430&linkCode=as2&tag=outlandermovieblogspot-20">Written in My Own Heart's Blood</a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=outlandermovieblogspot-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0385344430" height="1" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" width="1" />
! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">From the moment I started reading I was once again in the "Outlander World" with little or no adjustments needed. It was as if I'd never left and I loved it so much I stayed up until 3am on the 10th before realizing I'd read the same line three times. After the release of Echo in the Bone there was a lot of griping from fans who didn't like the way the book ended on multiple cliffhangers, personally I didn't mind but I did feel that Written In My Own Heart's Blood was a much more satisfactory ending and won't leave fans quite as upset and it's predesessor. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">In true Gabaldon style the book was a mixture of every emotion known to man and was exciting, humerous and emotional in equal measures. I'm not the kind of person who cries when reading books but I found myself with tears in my eyes on three separate occassions. Leaving me both emotional and excited whilst reaching for the biscuits tin as a way to deal with the stress. In fact there are numerous points in the book when I had to put my Kindle down and pace to calm myself down and pass the kitchen for comfort food. (No I'm not blamind Diana for me putting weight on!). </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Everyone I've spoken to absolutely loves the book and there is little wonder because it reaches the parts that other books can't possibly reach! I would love to discuss the ins and outs of the plot and the wonderful characterizations but as the book as only been released for a few days it's unfair to spoil anything for Outlander fans who haven't been able to read it yet! Don't delay though because you are truly missing a great piece of fiction! </span></div>

Today Diana tweeted a photograph of herself holding a copy of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0385344430/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0385344430&linkCode=as2&tag=outlandermovieblogspot-20&linkId=Z3DYZRUR53I2YLUR" target="_blank">Written In My Own Heart's Blood</a> aka #MOBY the much awaited "big book" in the Outlander Series. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's a time for reflection and even though it's been a very long time I can still remember the excitement of getting my hands on a copy of "Echo in the Bone" all those years ago. Unlike the new books release there was a significant delay in it being released in the UK much to my disgust. However, I managed to get a copy on Ebay about a week after it was released in the US (Weird I know!). It was too for the postman to fit through the letterbox and as no one was in I had to go to the Post Office to collect it. I sat stroking it lovingly on the way home promising myself that I would take my time and read it slowly ... of course the day after I had finished it!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Unlike last time I am now the proud owner of a Kindle and so will be downloading it at the first opportunity on the 5th June. Hopefully I will have the patience to make it last longer than last time. </span><br />
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
[EDITED TO ADD: Apparently the released date in the UK was altered to match the US release date of 10th June some time last month] </div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The artwork for the tv series tie-in book has now been released and as you can see it shows a very fetching photograph of Sam and Cait on the front cover. What I really love about this is the fact that it shows them looking less than perfect and makes it clear that the book is far more than a romance story! No one picking up the book for the first time is expecting anything other than a gritty tale! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was bored last night and whilst messing around on Youtube and I came across some old <a href="https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=diana+gabaldon+casting" target="_blank">Outlander casting videos</a>. I'm sure you remember the ones I mean as most of us were pretty obsessed with finding our perfect Jamie and Claire and some of us <ahem> decided to put our dream cast on video! I'm loath to admit this but most of them are TERRIBLE with hindsight! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What we have with Sam Heughan and Catriona Balfe is just SO MUCH BETTER and surpasses even the most amazing home made videos we created. Can any of you honestly still see the likes of Gerard Butler and (heaven forbid) Chris Hemsworth playing Jamie now? </span><br />

It's an amalgamation of the previously released trailers along with some still photography and captions making the story come to life! Whoever did this is really good and it's much appreciated!</span><br /><br />

Whilst I adore reading paper books I have to admit that I rarely buy them these days. This is partly due to the convienience of being able to instantly download ebooks onto my Kindle and partly because I don't want to store hundreds of "real" books in the house. In fact the only paper books I have kept is my inceasingly ragged looking Outlander collection. I do miss having a real bookcase though!<br />
<br />
However, I have to admit that I simply fell in love with this Outlander Kindle case I saw on Zazzle today! I'm not sure if I'll actually buy one myself but I just thought I'd share it for any Kindle owning Outlander fans!<br />
