Title: Lumbering but still great
Review: I admit, I have been taking my time with this installment of the Outlander series. Perhaps that is why the slower pace hasn't bothered me. (Or alternatively, maybe my slow pace is due to the dragging story.) In any case, it is noticeable that the plotting isn't as tight in this book as it was in the earlier installments. However, the full realization of the characters and environment more than make up for it. Since I've been reading the book for a couple months, I feel like the characters are really alive in this alternate universe. When I get a chance, I visit with them. It's not a page-turner like the earlier books may have been, but it's brought me great pleasure nonetheless.
