Title: A Real Cheat
Review: This book is a perfect example of how our current publishing trends can take advantage of readers' hopes, and how a poorly written behemoth can nevertheless become a bestseller and give a much-loved author the idea that she can get away with cheating her devoted fans out of 25 bucks. If I were more cynical, I'd suspect Diana Gabaldon of now stretching her "story" (and by the way, where was the story in this installment?) out so that she and her publishers can make more money than either deserve.I sincerely hope that all of the fans disappointed by the Fiery Cross will wait for the library copy of the next one, or borrow a friend's copy. The publishers may get their best seller anyway, but this kind of exploitation should not be encouraged.Virtually nothing is resolved in this book, and the loose ends and strung-out storylines are a poor substitute for true suspense. Readers, revolt.
