I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

Three mystery novellas featuring Lord John, the third of which was new to me. Although they are meant to be stand-alones, there are quite a few references which would go over the head of someone unfamiliar with either the other Lord John novels and stories or the wider Outlander universe.

A page from a missing volume of his father's journals turns up, and Lord John starts to find anomalies in the accepted version of his father's death nearly 20 years previously.

Some definite retconning going on here, but still a good yarn.

My thriftbooks.com order arrived! I love buying used books from them. Their used copies are always in good or better condition and only for a few bucks a pop! Free shipping in the US after $10, too. 😎 #usedbooks #bookmail #bookhaul #dianagabaldon #lordjohn

I started the day with 3 books in progress. Pandemic party animal that I am, I will finish them all by midnight.

First done, the second book of the Lord John series, which was a perfect pleasure listen: Gabaldon‘s great writing, a fun mystery with a dash of sexy times, an excellent narrator, my favorite redcoat, and a few glimpses of Jamie Freaking Fraser.

Ugly audio cover, so enjoy this photo of perfectly cast David Berry instead.😍

sprainedbrain Omg this was also my #DoubleSpin for December! Finally! @TheAromaofBooks 4y
Scochrane26 I like the Lord John series, too. The Scottish Prisoner has lots of Jamie, if you haven‘t gotten to that one yet. 4y
CarolynM Shh! Don't tell anyone, but I like the Lord John books a lot more than Outlander😆 4y

sprainedbrain @CarolynM I can understand that! They are fantastic books all by themselves, but I do love Claire, so... not sure I can count out the Outlander books. 😉 4y
sprainedbrain @Scochrane26 I have had them all for years but I‘m making my way slowly through, reading them when I start jonesing for Outlander world. I think Scottish Prisoner is next for me! 😍 4y
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 4y
inthegreensandblues I love LJG too.❤️ Scottish Prisoner is my last story left to read and have been sitting on it for years, probably bc I know I'll be out of new material then. 😂 But have looked at it a few times lately and thought of going for it... 4y

“To the best of Lord John Grey‘s knowledge, stepmothers in fiction tended to be venal, evil, cunning, homicidal, and occasionally cannibalistic.”

Gotta love Diana Gabaldon 🤣
