Loving the characters in this book! For someone who has grown accustomed to the strong character of Claire Randall Fraser in Outlander, Elizabeth Middleton holds my attention, and she gives as good as she gets. Smart, educated, tough, strong-willed, courageous - and she'll kill if she must. In return, she marries a man who compares more than favorably with Jamie Fraser (Outlander): a white man raised as an Indian, skilled in hunting, tracking, living in the wild, accepting of his own responsibility while not denying his wife her own sense of individualism and singular personality.

Into the Wilderness Sara Donati 9781863251792 Books Reviews
I enjoyed reading this book very much. The characters were well defined and the story and its various twists and turns held my interest. I got a kick out of the couple of quick references to characters from Outlander series. I did not love this as much as any of the Outlander series books but I would recommend reading it...it is enjoyable. The only thing I wish the author did not choose to have Nathanial use the word "aint" . This did not contribute to the image I feel the author wanted to portray but took away from his image. It may have been an attempt to portray him as a man who grew up in a wilderness environment??? It did not work. That was the only thing that I feel got in the way of the flow of the story. I do feel it is well written and enjoyable. Do read .
This was by far more than just a great book; it was epic and I think I am in love with Nathaniel Bonner. 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. 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. I can't wait to read the rest of the series. It's real, it's everything an epic novel should be.
I found this book recommended as a similar series to Outlander. So to any avid Outlander fans who have read the Outlander series at least twice, I found this series to be lacking. 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. I found myself very disappointed in this series. I read the first 2 and then quit halfway through the third book. 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 probably should not compare, but that is why I got this book in the first place, as an alternative to more Outlander novels.
If you like the "Outlander" books, you will no doubt love this book. 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. The main characters are Elizabeth and Nathaniel. This is their story done with all the color and passion of the times and the setting. I am thrilled to learn that there are 6 books in this series. I am a huge fan of Diana Gabaldon's "Outlander" series. This book is written simarlly. The characters are so richly written that I felt I could easily and happily know them. This historical New York State is inviting and fascinating. Buy this book if you like historical romance. This book delivers. Enjoy!!
I just finished this book.
First off, I am a huge Diana Gabaldon fan. I picked this up as a recommendation that I would look it since I love her work.
I thought the beginning was choppy-the main character, Elizabeth, seemed a bit prim and proper for my taste. I’m so glad I kept at it though. By the end she has developed into a character I could truly love. But because it took me a while to get into the story, I can only give it 4 stars
I bought the rest of the set, if that tells you anything.
This book has a lot of good going for it beautiful setting, likeable, distinctive characters, a focus on the struggle of every woman to be respected as a peer rather than property. But as I was reading it, I realized that the story has no real plot. Greed, sexism and racism seem are the drivers of all the action, with little of it making much sense when considered practically. It is only mildly believable that, for example, Richard Todd is at once deeply sentimental about the mountain and sociopathically bent on getting it. Similarly, the brother becomes fixated on taking the mountain from his own sister for purely selfish reasons. While I believe that people can be greedy, sexist and racist to the point that they behave badly, the rationale for these characters' deep hatred doesn't feel believable. That aside, the story is really just an exciting splice of a woman's life.
I was looking for something to read, and to be honest, the description of this book and the subsequent books didn't seem to appeal to me. BUT I got really desperate for something to read so I just jumped in and bought the bundle of 6 books in this series and I am so glad that I did. I really LOVED these books. There was so much happening all the time that the drama kept me going. I won't compare these to Diana Gabaldon as some may have because for me that is comparing apples to oranges. The only similarity is that they take place in the same time frame. This is a truly great series. Give them a try. I don't think you would be disappointed.
