Now a legacy of blood and desire will test her beautiful daughter as Claire's spellbinding journey continues in the intrigue-ridden court of Charles Edward Stuart, in a race to thwart a doomed uprising, and in a desperate fight to save both the child and the man she loves. Here Claire plans to reveal a truth as stunning as the events that gave it birth- about the mystery of an ancient circle of standing stones, about a love that transcends the boundaries of time, and about James Fraser, a warrior whose gallantry once drew the young Claire from the security of her century to the dangers of his. But now she is returning with her grown daughter to the majesty of Scotland's mist-shrouded hills. THE SECOND NOVEL IN THE BESTSELLING OUTLANDER SERIES - Now a major TV series. ![]() ![]() The first part of the novel, in which aliens influence the primitive ancestors of humans, is similar to the plot of Clarke's 1953 short story "Encounter in the Dawn". An elaboration of Clarke and Kubrick's collaborative work on this project was made in the 1972 book The Lost Worlds of 2001. By 1992, the novel had sold three million copies worldwide. ![]() The story is based in part on various short stories by Clarke, including "The Sentinel" (written in 1948 for a BBC competition, but first published in 1951 under the title "Sentinel of Eternity").

Alan Burt Akers : his first 5 Dray Prescot series are not too bad. I'll give some other recommandations in this now almost forgotten subgenre of sword and sorcery (or in some cases science and sorcery) : I have read most of these people and they're all recommended (especially Smith, Wagner, Howard and Brackett). I read some reviews who claim the earliest Gor novels (beginning with Tarnsman of Gor) are rather enjoyable and less obsessed with degradation of women than later in the series. And mind you, I really like pulp fiction.
