The Fiery Cross / Diana Gabaldon / 976 pages

This is part 5 of Gabaldon's Outlander series.  This installment focuses a bit more on Brianna and Roger's relationship, though Jamie and Claire still feature prominently.  If you ever wondered what living in 18th century America would be like, this book gives a pretty good idea.  This is one of the best-written series I've ever read.  Even though the events described are absolutely fiction, it's hard to believe that they never happened and that these characters never lived.
