Probably many of us are puzzled concerning the identity of the tithe/teind in The Scottish Prisoner. Is it Tobias Quinn or Jamie? In my two previous posts, I discussed the notion that the faeries do sacrifice one of their own to hell. Furthermore, I brought up the conception that time travelers are seen as faeries […]

Rereading 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 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 […]

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, […]

This post will mainly be about Mr. Willoughby and some references in Voyager in regards to the behavior of short men. I recommend reading the following post, which I wrote a few weeks ago: About Short and Tall Men, and Monsters. I detailed Claire’s perception about short men. According to her, short men are not nice […]

********Spoiler Alert******* Chapter 18 is a significant chapter in many aspects. I have always wondered whether there is some meaning behind The Impetuous Pirate. Of course, the fact that the narration is taking place on a ship foreshadows the trip that Claire and Jamie will undertake across the Atlantic. They will face issues with pirates […]

This post is of a speculative nature, and I suggest reading this post about Voyager’s prologue first. Rereading Voyager – The Prologue In Chapter 17, Claire expresses some concerns about short men. Her daughter Brianna is interacting with one of them. Apparently, she has warned her daughter to be cautious about them. Here are some of […]
Continue readingOutlander- Rereading Voyager: Let’s Talk About Geneva
One of the characters that readers tend to dislike is Geneva Dunsany. I guess we do not hate her as much as other characters. Most of what readers know about Geneva comes from Jamie’s point of view. Of course, he does not like much about her. She has good looks and is skilled at riding […]
Continue readingOutlander – Rereading Voyager: Jamie’s Arrival at Helwater
****Spoiler Alert**** I will be writing several Outlander posts in the next few weeks since I am almost done rereading the first half of Voyager. As usual, the most important details are given in the first half of the novel. For today’s post, I will concentrate on some notable quotes and Jamie’s arrival to Hellwater. […]

******* SPOILER ALERT ****** This post is the last one about Part Three in Voyager. I suggest reading the recommended posts at the bottom of this post first. They deal with some of the topics that I would be discussing in more detail. The Frenchman’s Gold and the White Witch The first reference to the […]
