Lord John by Diana Gabaldon

The Lord John Grey stories are finely crafted mysteries involving Lord John, the homosexual British soldier introduced in the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon.  Lord John's adventures take him to Hanover in the Seven Year's War (between England and Hanover and France, Prussia, & Austria), the poorest areas of London, and the wealthiest houses.

Lord John and the Hand of Devils by Diana Gabaldon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book contains three novellas: Lord John and the hellfire club -- Lord John and the succubus -- Lord John and the haunted soldier. In all three, he is at the front in Germany during the Seven Year's War. He spends time with his friend, Capt Von Naumsen (sp? I've been listening to it.) Very good if you like Lord John. These & other Lord John stories are not for everyone.


Lord John and the Brotherhood of the Blade by Diana Gabaldon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. The posh english speech of Lord John and brother Hal is wonderfully counterpointed to the various accents of the lower class characters. Highly recommend the story - warning some explicit sex.

Lord John and the Private Matter by Diana Gabaldon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I listened to Lord John and the Private Matter. I enjoyed the story but the best part was listening to the reader, Jeff Woodman, with his oh-so-posh British accent. I'm not sure reading it would have been the same experience. Am now listening to .
