About this listen

I met Jamie Fraser when I was 19 years old. He was tall, redheaded, and, at our first meeting at least, a virgin. I fell in love hard, fast, and completely. He knew how to ride a horse, wield a sword, and stitch a wound. He was, in fact, the perfect man.

That he was fictional hardly entered into it.

At 29 Emma Sheridan's life is a disaster, and she's tired of waiting for the perfect boyfriend to step from the pages of her favorite book. There's only one place to look, and it means selling everything and leaving her world behind. With the aid of an unexpected collection of allies, can Emma face down a naked fishmonger, a randy gnome, a perfidious thief, and even her own abdominal muscles on the journey to find her Fraser?

Contains mature themes.

Dire Scottish accent!

Though the diarised story was ok, not fabulous, but ok the narrator was awful to the point of painful! Her Scot’s accent SHOULD NOT have been attempted, or even dreamt of, unless she could do it properly. As in Hollywood properly. Or even better, being actually Scottish! Otherwise leave well alone. Full stop. End of.

The book may be fine but the accents are awful!

I don't think I can listen to anymore of the audiobook. The main protagonist is setting off to go to Scotland and before she's even left America she's encountered a Scot whose accent is such a horrifying melange of American, Irish, faint Scot and a good smattering of Russian that I'm too scared to go to Scotland with her! I may continue reading it as an ebook but I'm not sure I can be bothered.

A fine wee story

Is there anything you would change about this book?

It's fine, worth listening to if you understand the Outlander fandom. However I felt the main character spent too long zinging about in America before getting to Scotland. The number of references to the main character not having enough money got tiresome. Fair enough to run out half way through and after being robbed but she is bleeting about cash the whole way thru'.

Would you be willing to try another book from KC Dyer? Why or why not?

I guard my credits jealously so no, but I would READ another. However, I stuck with it,which is a compliment given the woeful narration.

How could the performance have been better?

Where do I begin.....The narrator's American accent is fine. The British accents are just a jumbled mess, with Northern English errupting in the middle of Scottish speech. There are sounds I have never heard British people emit. I had to to just tune it out and listen to the story. (I am Scottish living in England so I do know how it should have sounded)

If this book were a film would you go see it?

Possibly, as films set in Scotland tend to have a quirky charm.

Narrator is really, really bad.

Fun plot idea, starts strong. Would have prefered to read it in hindsight.
I can not stress enough how bad the narration is in all accents but american. Almost like a bad offensive joke?

Awful accents

Didnt like the narration. An annoying American putting on awful Scottish accents made it painful to listen to at points. I enjoyed the story though. I would rather have read it than listen to the narration.
