I love time-travel series, and I think Outlander is what got me started with that. I feel sort of like Outlander was the forerunner to the time-travel romance genre. As of 2022 these books are being sold in 114 countries and translated into 38 languages. Who would have guessed that what started out as a single sort of bizarre historical romance novel would turn into this amazing book series, and then further turn into a hugely successful Starz TV series?Īpparently, they are not too bizarre, however, for a huge audience to love them. In reality, the Outlander series is completely bizarre in that the characters time travel. And technically, all of those labels would be correct, as the books contain elements of all of those things.īut the bottom line with Outlander is – it’s really an epic love story that takes place across multiple time frames and continents over a period of hundreds of years.Īnd this brings me to the book bizarre-o-meter! But they could also be referred to as historical fiction, fantasy, time travel romance, gay romance, and a few more. They are certainly historical romance books. Outlander is the actual title of the first book, and it’s also what the entire series is referred to – the Outlander series.Ĭategorizing this series is difficult because the books are a mixture of genres.

If you’re not already familiar with the Outlander books, they were written by author Diana Gabaldon.

There are now quite a few books in this series. Perhaps what that one book developed into was unexpected even by the author, Diana Gabaldon, herself. Little did I know what was coming, with this long Outlander series that was totally unexpected. Even the author herself says she can’t describe her own book in 25 words or less. Or, more specifically as a historical romance. At the time, I thought of it as a romance book. I read Outlander back in 1991 when it was originally published in the U.S.
