Publisher's Summary

Diana Gabaldon's immensely popular Outlander saga soars to new heights with this seventh novel, which takes listeners on a breathtaking journey to 1777 America.

Jamie Fraser knows from his time-traveling wife Claire that, no matter how unlikely it seems, America will win the Revolutionary War. But that truth offers little solace, since Jamie realizes he might find himself pointing a weapon directly at his own son - a young officer in the British army.

And Jamie isn't the only one with a tormented soul - for Claire may know who wins the conflict, but she certainly doesn't know whether or not her beloved Jamie survives.

Epic in scope and featuring a colorful cast that includes many legendary figures - including hero-turned-traitor Benedict Arnold and bawdy statesman Benjamin Franklin - An Echo in the Bone is a thrill from start to finish.

Featured Article: The Best Female Narrators You Can Listen To All Day


When considering a new audiobook, one of the biggest questions listeners have is whether they’ll enjoy the narration style. This is understandable as audiobooks span at least a few hours, and sticking with one person’s voice for that period can feel like a big commitment. Luckily, there are so many excellent voice actors performing audiobooks that you might just find yourself gravitating to certain audiobooks based solely on the narrator’s strength.

Book 7 and still going strong

Book 7 and I was still fully invested in the story. I love the detailed descriptions of what life must have been like back then and found this book to be very entertaining. I rated it a four because the original book, Outlander really can’t be beat for sheer romance, suspense, adventure etc.

Glitches during reading

There were a couple handful of time when the audio would go silent. Not sure if anything was missed.

The best book of the series since Outlander

I loved this audio book! So many twists and turns. I just say the end is not really an ending at all… but merely a jumping off point to Book 8! I can’t wait to see how this book is portrayed in Season 7 of Outlander!
