For Voyager, that word is 'identity.' Indeed, the first half of Voyager is about Jamie and Claire searching for their core identity as individuals. Claire also flashes back to critical bits of her life in Boston married to Frank Randall, raising her daughter Brianna, and balancing family life with her new and demanding medical career.Īs I mentioned in my previous review, Diana Gabaldon was once asked in an interview if she could sum up the theme of each of her Outlander novels in a single word. As we see what happens from Jamie's perspective, we shift back and forth to 1968 as Claire, Brianna and Roger Wakefield track Jamie through the historical record. Voyager begins right there in the aftermath of that battle in 1746, and follows Jamie through that day and the difficult years afterward. The second book, Dragonfly in Amber, ended in 1968 with Claire discovering that Jamie Fraser had survived Culloden. I'm personally quite fond of this part of the Outlander story, but I completely understand some of the less-than-positive criticism. Voyager is an odd beast, something of an aberration compared to the rest of the book series. The major differences between the book and the third season of the television series.
