I'm the same. I can't wait for paperbacks either. My copy of An Echo In The Bone is trade paperback because that's what's released here straight away. It is a nice purple cover though.



Does anyone have any favourite lines from DG?

My favourite line is the last one in The Fiery Cross: "If my last words are not 'I love you' you'll ken it was because I dinna have time".

That's a good one. Jamie can be so romantic.

Ahh, Jamie and Claire. Feel the emotion.

Do you think we should have a list of readers in the opening post?
