Outlander

edited 2026-06-19

A complete reading and viewing order for Diana Gabaldon's Outlander franchise — nine main novels, the Lord John Grey sub-series (three novels and six novellas), four main-series novellas, and the Starz television adaptation across eight seasons plus the prequel series Blood of My Blood. Covers both publication order and Gabaldon's own documented in-universe chronological reading path, including her guidance on where the Lord John works interleave.
