Caution for those picking this up....these books are thick and dense....but a great story!

I'm so glad I didn't start reading the Outlander series until last year...so I didn't have to wait for any in the interim years. If you haven't read The Scottish Prisoner, she has a "preview" of Written in My Own Heart's Blood at the end. It graciously addresses some of the cliffhangers...I was especially interested in seeing what happened to Jemmy in the tunnel.
This is my top suggestion from the past couple years:
The All Souls Trilogy --
A Discovery of Witches, by Deborah Harkness (loved, loved, loved this!!!)
A Shadow of Night
I thought the 3rd one would be coming out this summer, but she's still working on it. Professors.
She needs to give up her day job, like Diana Gabaldon did.
I love being a professor, but these two women have made my dream transition. Being a best-selling author would be my ultimate dream job.
