Review: Lord John in Canada
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 02 2, 2013
Diana Gabaldon gives us a glimpse into one element of Lord John Grey's army career--his short assignment to attend a military trial in Canada. An electric eel party and The Battle of Quebec lend a sense of reality to the story. Lord John is always an interesting and sympathetic character, but this little detour seemed almost pointless. I had just read "A Leaf on the Wind of All Hallows," and was hoping for this story to be a little better connected with the events of the long-running Outlander series.
