The Outlander graphic novel, The Exile came out on Tuesday. I can't believe I haven't run over to Borders yet this week to pick it up!
Here's a fun little youtube preview...

Bones - Outlander is a series of historical novels about time travel, huge red-haired Scottish men and sex. Lots and lots of sex.
The books are pretty long (like 900+ pages in some cases) and if you read them, I recommend spacing them out. I read all of them in the space of about a month and a half, and it got to the point where I was sick of the entire series and all the characters and I never want to read them again.
For me, they're like rum. I had one bad night with rum and I can't.ever.drink it.again.
Unable to even.

wac - It's just a graphic novel based around the same story as Outlander. There are probably some things uncovered that maybe she didn't touch on in Outlander but I believe it follows the same story lines. But...you get to see pictures!!
Bones - it's just the best historic fiction/romance series evah!
Check out the synopsis on Amazon (author: Diana Gabaldon). It's a seriously long book but I flew through it.
This happened to me. I had to stop after the fourth book. I do intend to go back to it someday, though.
As for the graphic novel, I haven't heard of it but I think I'll pass. I prefer my own mental picture of Jamie, thanks.
Dear God, how did you read all of the books in a month and a half?! I think it took me about 7 months to get through all 7. And it was my second time around for books 1 - 4.
WHAT?!??!
How did I not know about this? My husband is certain that if Jamie was real I would have left him (MH) for him (Jamie)...and I can't say that I am totally convincing when I deny it.
I need to go to Borders now.
I started reading these in May and am now on the most recent novel...it can become a bit of overkill and I haven't been able to finish this one as quickly as the rest. DH likes when I read the books because then he gets sexy time if he does his "Shrek" impression.
I'm one of those people who can't visualize characters or scenery so a graphic novel might be good for me.

Well, I cheated a bit. By book 4, I would get to the sex scenes and think, "They're having sex again?" and so I would skip a bunch of pages.
I swear, without the sex, those books are like 100 pages long.

Ha!! Rum is my nemesis also. One too many extra-strong pina coladas in Mexico = the first time puking from alcohol and rum and I are no longer on speaking/smelling/drinking terms.
...and yes, I said pina coladas. Don't judge, they weren't wimpy like they are here.
For me, it was double shots of Captain Morgans after a night of drinking vodka cranberries.

Too funny and too true. They are the horniest people I think I've ever read about. I hope I have that much sex when I'm 50.
Young Ian was way hotter than Jamie. WAY. I kept picturing Jamie as Hagrid from Harry Potter and it really turned me off.
