Book-to-Film: Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
Well technically this is book-to-tv, but we'll let it slide. Who here has read Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series? I've only read the first one, and I have no idea why I stopped there because I completely inhaled that book. It's definitely a series for adults, not teens, so I wondered if it would ever make it to the big screen, despite the years of rumors. Apparently it is finally on its way! To the small screen, anyway. But that's probably better since it's such a large book. The costuming and set design look awesome from the trailer. I'm curious how this series will play out.
The Outlander series is set to begin airing episodes this summer.

Just finished reading ALL 7 volumes of the "Outlander" series! That now makes 3 times I have read the entire series!
ReplyDeleteFor your information, the TV series is backed by the STARZ network (the same people who brought us "Spartacus"). Considering how graphic that TV show was, I am pretty sure that none of the sex and violence in Diana's books are going to be left out!
Diana's 8th book in the series "Written In My Own Hearts Blood" is due for release on June 10th this year. The TV series will premiere on July 9th. It will be a 16 episode first season.
Hi! You must be a big fan, if you've read the whole series three times! Good for you. Thanks for the extra information, I appreciate it!
