Outlander revolves about a former nurse Clarie Randall from World War II who’s mysteriously swept back in time to 1743, where she is immediately thrown into an unknown world in which her life is threatened.
She marries Jamie, a youthful Scottish warrior, because of necessity but then she quickly falls in love. She’s suspected of being a secret agent, so the highlanders retain her as a healer, preventing her from trying to come back to her own time. Later, she gets pregnant with Jamie’s kid and they plan to proceed to Paris, France. This series spans the genres of romance, science fiction, history, adventure, and politics within an epic story.
