Biography Diane Gabaldon is the author of the best-selling Outlander
Series. Her books are difficult to classify by genre, since they contain
elements of romantic fiction, historical fiction, and science fiction
(in the form of time travel). Her first fiction efforts were posted on
the CompuServe writers forum. Favorable feedback from other members of
this forum persuaded her to finish and publish the first book in the Outlander
series. The stories center around a time-travelling 20th-century nurse
(Claire Beauchamp Randall Fraser) and her 18th-century Scottish husband
(James Fraser), and are located in Scotland, France, and America. The
Lord John Grey Series is a spinoff from the Outlander books, as it centers
on a secondary character from the original series.
Her books have so far been sold in 23 countries, and translated into 19 languages besides English.
