A Breath of Fire and Ashes - first US edition
by Diana Gabaldon - signed
The sixth book of the popular Outlander series. Gabaldon shines as she
unfolds the continuing story of the Frasers, heartbreakingly heroic highlander
Jamie and his time-traveling wife Clare. Set during the three years leading up
to the American Revolution, this compulsively readable mix of authentically set
historical fiction and completely satisfying romance maps both violent loss and
strong family ties. On the eve of war much is changing on Fraser's Ridge and
Jamie and Claire encounter much harm. This vivid and haunting novel, therefore,
brings an aching sadness, but it is balanced with sheer joy, revelation, and
solace. The large scope of the novel allows Gabaldon to do what she does best,
paint in exquisite detail the lives of her characters.
Book has light gray boards quarter-bound with black cloth, title in red on the
spine. Signed by the author on the title page. Dust jacket is price-intact at
$28.00 with a reflective foil front that is difficult to scan.
