An Echo in The Bone {Book 7} #1 "to accept the notion of one’s own mortality, and yet live fully, was a paradox worthy of Socrates."
AN ECHO IN THE BONE readers do NOT discuss future books here Jamie Fraser, former Jacobite and reluctant rebel, is already certain of three things about the American rebellion: The Americans will win, fighting on the side of victory is no guarantee of survival, and he’d rather die than have to face his illegitimate son–a young lieutenant in the British army–across the barrel of a gun. __________________

I started this last night! So excited to have time to read again and not just cram it all into small snippets. Not much has happened yet, though ... I do like how it overlaps a bit with the last book to give context for wherever it's going.

About a quarter of the way done ... Enjoying it so far, how it bounces back and forth between Roger/Bree in the 20th century and Jamie/Claire in the 18th again. It's nice to have the variety again.
I'm thinking Arch Bugg is the villain for this arc of books and I'm not sure how I feel about that quite yet. Not when he's after Ian! __________________

I'm roughly halfway through, and I've enjoyed it so far. Everyone has favorites for different reasons. Mine are book 4/Drums of Autumn and book 6/A Breath of Snow and Ashes, but this one isn't bad (especially the Bree/Roger parts).
There are little things about the time travel aspect being dropped about in this book that I'm trying to make sense of, like the time crevice under the Loch and the fact that William could hear the stones talking to him ... If he can hear them, can he travel? Does that mean Jamie can travel? Is that how Jamie ends up in 1945 at the beginning of the series? SO MANY QUESTIONS! __________________
