I recently did a second reading of The Scottish Prisoner, and I have always felt that the bog man was probably a time traveler. As a result, I decided to take a closer look at the evidence given in the text. Of course, this post is speculative, and the final verdict is still out. Most […]

Outlander: Richardson as a Member of the Sons of Liberty
I have been wanting to write about Richardson for a while, especially after reading An Echo in the Bone, around two years ago. Ezekiel Richardson is an enigmatic character. Is he a double agent or an American spy? Of course, Written in My Own Heart’s Blood reveals more about him. However, the purpose of this post […]
Continue readingOutlander: Possible Origin of Black Jack’s Depravity
Recently, a moderator from Outlander Series, a Facebook Outlander Fan group, brought up the topic whether Black Jack’s actions to save or comfort his brother, Alex, makes him redeemable. He divulged military secrets to the Jacobites and married Mary Hawkins so that her child could carry the family name. My answer to this question is […]
Continue readingLord John’s White Horse
It has been a while that I have written something Outlander related. Recently, I finished reading “Lord John and the Succubus.” I suggest reviewing the links to some posts that I have written in the past for a better understanding of what I will be explaining. They are at the end of this post. In […]
Continue readingLord John Series: Secret Societies in the Eighteenth Century
It has been a long time since I wrote something Outlander related. I had a lot of traveling to do at the end of last year, and I was hoping to upgrade my whole blog (that did not go well), which delayed me in writing the first few weeks of this year. I have decided […]
Continue readingRereading Voyager: The Entity at Abandawe
I have been planning to write a post about the possible presence of an entity at Abandawe since three years ago (after reading Voyager for the first time). Since Season 3 of the TV adaptation is coming to an end in a few weeks, I think it is the proper time to write about it. […]
Continue readingThe Ghost Fish and its Association with Abandawe and Geillis
I decided to write this post a little bit sooner than what I originally planned. One of the reasons is that there is the scene in the last episode of Outlander in which Margaret Campbell tells Claire about Abandawe (Season 3, Episode 7, Crème de Menthe). I recommend reading the following posts: White Animals and […]
Continue readingSkulls and Bone Reading in the Outlander Series
I decided to write this post to establish some connections among several hints given away throughout the series about the stories that bones can tell. In Voyager, there is the scene in which Claire holds the skull of somebody who was killed in the eighteenth century (Geillis’s skull). Without applying any scientific method, Claire can […]
Continue readingRereading Voyager: Significant Quotes and Foreshadowing (Chapters 40-43)
I have finally finished rereading Voyager, and this post will be about passages that reveal more about the series in general. Some of them foreshadow future events. Once reunited with Jamie, Claire muses about the series of events she had been through in a small time frame. I had not dared to think what life […]
Continue readingRereading Voyager: Mr. Willoughby, the Healer, and other Spies
When I first read Voyager, I noticed certain characteristics about Mr. Willoughby that grabbed my attention. At that time, it was hard for me to have it explained. After finishing reading the whole Outlander series, most of the references about him started to fall into place. Of note is Mr. Willoughby’s attire. He wears blue, […]
