Interesting Tidbits

This provided interesting insight and information about the series - things I never thought of before such as color choices beyond the obvious, use of the Black Sails set in Africa (another great series), and ways they used to convey the impact of the story beyond the acting. If you are an Outlander fan, you will find this interesting. But, you have to bear with the narrator. The reading sounds as though it is being done digitally through a robotic voice - very monotone with artificial-sounding inflections and awkward phrasing and emphasis. This is not performed at all. Too bad. It definitely detracts from the overall product, but again, the information is interesting if you are an Outlander fan.

Interesting if you like a look behind the scenes

I enjoy the Outlander series, so a look back at the episodes is fun for me. It is not a smooth read and instead feels a bit disjointed. Still, a true fan will appreciate the book.
