BEES (Book 9) Was Released on Nov. 23, 2021
GO TELL THE BEES THAT I AM GONE, book nine in my Outlander series of major novels, was released on Tuesday, November 23, 2021 in the U.S.A. and other publishing areas.
At right: Pam Spurr and her signed copy of BEES, a Christmas 2021 gift from a friend. Pam has been an avid reader of my Outlander series since the 1990s.
BEES was released concurrently in editions for other countries including Canada, the U.K., and Germany (German-language edition, translated by Barbara Schnell).
For the many other international editions, the publication dates will depend upon the time needed to translate BEES into other languages as well as publication schedules of publishers in different countries and publishing regions. Each international publisher sets their own timetables and release dates. Translating my books into another language often requires at least a year, not including typesetting and printing.
Thank you for making BEES a NYT #1 and international bestseller!
Shapes and Themes of My Outlander Novels
Want to know more about my books? How I write them? Here are a few of my blogs and webpages to explore:
“The Shape of Things:” All my books have an internal geometric or natural shape that emerges in the course of the work, and once I’ve seen it, the writing goes much faster. (BEES is a snake!) Read more…
“One Word Speaks Volumes (Themes of the Novels):” Some intelligent NPR interviewer asked me one day whether I could sum up the book we were talking about in a single sentence—and I realized that in fact, I could summarize the theme of each book in a single word. Read more…

Season 6 of the Starz Outlander TV Series
The long-awaited premiere of Outlander Season Six was Sunday, March 6, 2022 at in the U.S.A. on the Starz cable network. I considered this a good omen, because I began writing OUTLANDER on March 6, 1988.
All of season 6 has aired in the U.S.A. It focussed on the events in A BREATH OF SNOW AND ASHES, the sixth major novel in my Outlander series which focuses on Jamie and Claire.
I think Season Six is the best season yet since Season One, which was very special because it was the first. As to what you’ll see, I leave you with three words:
Christie, Amoeba, and Brown.
