Diana Gabaldonâ€™s brilliant storytelling has captivated millions of readers in her bestselling and award-winning Outlander saga. Now, in her first-ever graphic novel, Gabaldon gives readers a fresh look at the events of the original Outlander: Jamie Fraserâ€™s side of the story, gorgeously rendered by artist Hoang Nguyen.
Â
After too long an absence, Jamie Fraser is coming home to Scotlandâ€"but not without great trepidation. Though his beloved godfather, Murtagh, promised Jamieâ€™s late parents heâ€™d watch over their brash son, making good on that vow will be no easy task. Thereâ€™s already a fat bounty on the young exileâ€™s head, courtesy of Captain Black Jack Randall, the sadistic British officer whoâ€™s crossed pathsâ€"and swordsâ€"with Jamie in the past. And in the court of the mighty MacKenzie clan, Jamie is a pawn in the power struggle between his uncles: aging chieftain Colum, who demands his nephewâ€™s loyaltyâ€"or his lifeâ€"and Dougal, war chieftain of Clan MacKenzie, whoâ€™d sooner see Jamie put to the sword than anointed Columâ€™s heir.

And then there is Claire Randallâ€"mysterious, beautiful, and strong-willed, who appears in Jamieâ€™s life to stir his Â compassion . . . and arouse his desire.Â
Â
But even as Jamieâ€™s heart draws him to Claire, Murtagh is certain sheâ€™s been sent by the Old Ones, and Captain Randall accuses her of being a spy. Claire clearly has something to hide, though Jamie canâ€™t believe she could pose him any danger. Still, he knows she is torn between two choicesâ€"a life with him, and whatever it is that draws her thoughts so often elsewhere.Â
