Genudgivelse i paperback.Sangen i knoglerne er syvende bind i Diana Gabaldons forrygende kærlighedsdrama om skotten Jamie Fraser og hans kone Claire Randall, som stadig er en ”Outlander”, en fremmed i tid og sted.North Carolina 1777. Jamie Fraser, tidligere jakobit og oprører af nød, ved allerede tre ting om den amerikanske opstand: Amerikanerne vinder, at kæmpe på de sejrendes side er ingen garanti for overlevelse, og hellere dø end møde sin uægte søn – en ung løjtnant i den britiske hær – for enden af et geværløb.Claire Randall ved også, hvordan det hele ender, men ikke hvad den ultimative pris vil blive. Den må under ingen omstændigheder indbefatte at mister Jamie livet – ikke hvis hun har noget at skulle have sagt.I mellemtiden befinder Jamie og Claires datter, Brianna, og hendes mand, Roger MacKenzie, sig i relativ sikkerhed i det tyvende århundred. Her har de igen bosat sig i et historisk, skotsk hjem, hvor de gennem Claires breve og hen over en afgrund på to hundred år følger den dramatiske udvikling i forældrenes historie. Brevene afslører Claires store kærlighed til den sårede Jamie Fraser og deres flugt fra North Carolina og ud på åbent hav, hvor de udsættes for kapere og blodige søslag. Alt imens søger Brianna og Roger efter ledetråde, ikke blot til Claires, men deres egen skæbne, fordi MacKenzie-familiens fremtid i det skotske Højland på mystisk, uigenkaldelig og intim vis er forbundet med liv og død i det krigshærgede, koloniserede Amerika.Sangen i knoglerne rummer stærke portrætter af historiske karakterer fra Benedict Arnold til Benjamin Franklin og er et pragtværk af fantasi, indsigt og eventyr – en roman, der giver genlyd i sindet, længe efter at den sidste side er vendt.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER *;NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY BOOKLISTIn her now classic novel Outlander, Diana Gabaldon told the story of Claire Randall, an English ex-combat nurse who walks through a stone circle in the Scottish Highlands in 1946, and disappears . . . into 1743. The story unfolded from there in seven bestselling novels, and CNN has called it ';a grand adventure written on a canvas that probes the heart, weighs the soul and measures the human spirit across [centuries].'

Fjerde bog i den succesfulde Outlander-serie, der vises på Netflix og Viaplay.ITrommer i det fjerne, fortsætter Diana Gabaldon sin imponerende Outlander-serie om Claire og Jamie Fraser, som begyndte med Den engelske kvinde. På dansk er også udkommet Guldsmed i rav og Den rejsende.Ægteparret Claire og Jamie Fraser er efter et skibbrud havnet i de amerikanske kolonier og står nu over for et svært valg: Enten må de vende tilbage til et forarmet Skotland plaget af fattigdom og nød, eller også må de vove at begynde et nyt liv i Den Nye Verden, skønt Claire ved, at Den Amerikanske Revolution lurer i horisonten..Men højlændere er jo fødte vovehalse – og det samme er tidsrejsende. Deres datter, Brianna, er i sikkerhed – tror de – på den anden side af den farlige fremtid, så de kan sætte deres egne liv på spil, som de vil. Fast forankrede i troen på sig selv og hinanden, forsøger de at begynde forfra blandt de skotske højlændere, der nu lever i eksil på Cape Fear-flodens frugtbare sletteland i kolonien North Carolina.Selv i Den Nye Verden finder Claire og Jamie dog deres håb om et fredeligt liv truet både udefra og indefra – af den britiske krone og af Jamies tante, Jocasta MacKenzie, den sidste overlevende af Leochs MacKenzie-slægt.Længslen efter frihed driver Jamie mod højlænderens eneste sande tilflugtssted: bjergene. Og her finder de endelig fred og ro – hvis man ser bort fra vilde dyr, indianere og faren for at sulte ihjel – til at skabe sig en tilværelse i vildmarken, i tryg forvisning om at selv krigen ikke kan nå deres fjerne fristed.Men historiens gang er nådesløs, og da Brianna følger sin mor ind i fortiden, kan selv ikke bjergene beskytte en højlænder. For Brianna drives ikke blot af længslen efter at finde den mor, hun har mistet, og den far, hun aldrig har mødt; hun må også redde dem begge fra en fremtid, kun hun kan se.

Bestsellerforfatteren Diana Gabaldon har fortryllet læsere overalt i verden med sine prisvindende Outlander-romaner, fire blændende fortællinger med James Fraser, en skotte fra det attende århundrede, og hans kone, Claire Randall, en tidsrejsende fra det tyvende århundrede, i hovedrollerne. Nu fortæller Diana Gabaldon videre om deres enestående saga i denne mesterlige roman, som er den mest utrolige i Outlander-serien indtil nu. Året er 1771, og der er en krig på vej. Det fortæller Jamie Frasers kone ham. Hvor lidt hun end ønsker det, så er han nødt til at tro på det, for hun har evnen for at komme med frygtelige forudsigelser – den sikre vished, som en tidsrejsende besidder. Claires unikke udsyn til fremtiden har ofte bragt Jamie i fare, men også ført til hans befrielse; hendes viden om den nært forestående amerikanske revolution er en blafrende fakkel, som kan lyse vej for ham gennem de farefyldte år, der venter – eller antænde en storbrand, der vil lægge deres liv i aske.

Et pust af sne og aske er fortsættelsen af sagaen om skotten Jamie Fraser fra det 18. århundrede og hans tidsrejsende kone Claire fra det 20. Året er 1772, og splittelsen mellem Storbritannien og dets amerikanske kolonier har fået alle til at tænke på et frygtindgydende ord: ordet revolution. I det skovrige North Carolina har man allerede fået de første varsler om voldeligheder, og huse er blevet sat i brand og brændt ned til grunden. For at bevare kolonien for den britiske kong George III beder koloniens guvernør sin ven Jamie om at samle indbyggerne og genoprette freden. Men Jamie nyder det privilegium – eller lider under den byrde – at vide, at det er umuligt at undgå den kommende krig. Claire har fortalt ham, at kolonierne vil forene sig og gøre oprør mod kongemagten, og at resultatet bliver uafhængighed og død eller landsforvisning for alle britiske loyalister. Og der også et andet problem. Claire har fundet et avisudklip fra 1776, der fortæller om Jamies død. Med sin brede episke fortælling, sine mange historiske detaljer og saftige romantiske eventyr er Et pust af sne og aske alt det, som Diana Gabaldons mange læsere elsker og forventer.

Offers a complete listing of the characters (fictional and historical) in the first four novels in the series, as well as family trees and genealogical notes. This book also includes full synopses of Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber, Voyager and Drums of Autumn.
