is a weekly event that was originally hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. This meme is a place that spotlights upcoming releases that we´re eagerly anticipating with pure joy. There are a lot of new books coming out each year and some of them catch my attention and will get a spotlight in my Waiting on Wednesday post. While some of them will finally end up here at my place, others won´t. I am joining Tressa at Wishful Endings and her meme Can´t-Wait Wednesday.
I discovered the information about this new Outlander book yesterday and changed my plan for today's Waiting On Wednesday post. Although this hardcover will be over 1100 pages thick, at least the German edition, I guess I want to know how the story about Claire and Jamie will continue. I have read all the other Outlander novels and love the opulent style Diana Gabaldon shows as an author. After finishing the eighth novel in this series I had thought that the author was done with her Outlander books. Apparently not. So, yes, I am curious about what will happen next. I am presenting you today the German edition of Go Tell The Bees That I Am Gone, which will be published the same day, as the US edition.

Jamie Fraser and Claire Randall were torn apart by the Jacobite Rising in 1743, and it took them twenty years to find each other again. Now the American Revolution threatens to do the same. It is 1779 and Claire and Jamie are at last reunited with their daughter, Brianna, her husband, Roger, and their children on Fraser’s Ridge. Having the family together is a dream the Frasers had thought impossible. Yet even in the North Carolina backcountry, the effects of war are being felt. Tensions in the Colonies are great and local feelings run hot enough to boil Hell’s teakettle. Jamie knows loyalties among his tenants are split and it won’t be long until the war is on his doorstep. Brianna and Roger have their own worry: that the dangers that provoked their escape from the twentieth century might catch up to them. Sometimes they question whether risking the perils of the 1700s - among them disease, starvation, and an impending war - was indeed the safer choice for their family. Not so far away, young William Ransom is still coming to terms with the discovery of his true father’s identity - and thus his own - and Lord John Grey has reconciliations to make, and dangers to meet . . . on his son’s behalf, and his own. Meanwhile, the Revolutionary War creeps ever closer to Fraser’s Ridge. And with the family finally, together, Jamie and Claire have more at stake than ever before.
Go Tell The Bees That I Am Gone will be published November 23, 2021, by Delacorte Press.

The 1700s are not a time period that I have read much about, fiction or nonfiction. I hope you enjoy the books. Here is my link: https://cindysbookcorner.blogspot.com/2021/11/cant-wait-wednesday-much-ado-about-latte.html
