![]() ![]() By the end she has developed into a character I could truly love. I thought the beginning was choppy-the main character, Elizabeth, seemed a bit prim and proper for my taste. I picked this up as a recommendation that I would look it since I love her work. Enjoy!!įirst off, I am a huge Diana Gabaldon fan. Buy this book if you like historical romance. This historical New York State is inviting and fascinating. The characters are so richly written that I felt I could easily and happily know them. I am a huge fan of Diana Gabaldon's "Outlander" series. I am thrilled to learn that there are 6 books in this series. This is their story done with all the color and passion of the times and the setting. The main characters are Elizabeth and Nathaniel. It tells of the time, shortly after the Revolutionary War, in up-state New York when native Americans were still trying to fit into the landscape that had been theirs for centuries. If you like the "Outlander" books, you will no doubt love this book. I probably should not compare, but that is why I got this book in the first place, as an alternative to more Outlander novels. I think this author is fairly good, but this book and series really missed the mark for me when comparing it to Diana Gabaldon and the Outlander series. I read the first 2 and then quit halfway through the third book. I found myself very disappointed in this series. While there are some good historical facts and some romance between the main characters, it strongly lacks the 3 dimensional development of the story line and the characters, as were done so well in all of the Outlander series. So to any avid Outlander fans who have read the Outlander series at least twice, I found this series to be lacking. I found this book recommended as a similar series to Outlander. It's real, it's everything an epic novel should be. I can't wait to read the rest of the series. I never got bored with this book and if I didn't have to go to work I would have kept my head in this book from sunup to sundown. The attraction that Elizabeth fought at first for this man was so cute at first and I loved the way she finally gave into her feelings for him. This was by far more than just a great book it was epic and I think I am in love with Nathaniel Bonner. ![]() And she meets a man unlike any she has ever encountered-a white man dressed like a Native American,Sara Donati,Into the Wilderness,Bantam,0553578529,Romance - Historical - General,Fiction,Fiction - Historical,Fiction Romance Historical General,Fiction-Romance,General Adult,Historical - General,MASS MARKET,RomanceHistorical,Romance: Historical,Sagas Into the Wilderness Sara Donati 9781863251792 Books Reviews It is a place unlike any she has ever experienced.

I want to warn you TOWARDS this one! Run out to the store and get it. Usually when I take the time to write a review about a book, it's because I dislike it so much I want to warn the other readers away. I really can't say enough good things about Sara Donati. Many Doves and Runs-From-Bears will have you starry-eyed over their romance as well. This is a book where the 'back-scene' characters shine as well. I cried at Nathaniel's earnest charm, his teasing humor, and his steadfast loyalty to his family. I laughed at Elizabeth's pert words and ready blushes, and could relate to her unfamiliarness in the wilderness. The characters are what truly make this book memorable. Read the opening paragraph again-you'll see what I mean. Donati's prose is so compelling that you immediately /know/ how she wants her characters pictured just from a few simple words.
