This is a collection of three novellas about Lord John which have all been previously published. The stories about Lord John are a spinoff of the Outlander series.LORD JOHN AND THE HELLFIRE CLUB: Lord John is approached by a man who bears a resemblance to Jaime and agrees to meet with the man about a political problem. The man is soon murdered and Lord John investigates and is drawn into the Hellfire Club. This is a very short story (around 40 pages) which gives a glimpse into Lord John's life and a quick investigation, but it didn't really stick with me. Neither the mystery, nor the life glimpse seemed that grand. Okay story for fans, but not a necessary read. Rating 2.5 stars.LORD JOHN AND THE SUCCUBUS: Lord John is in Prussia and encounters another murder. This time the suspect is a succubus (female demon). Lord John investigates the death. This is a longer story (about 100 pages) and has a bit of supernatural flare which won't surprise readers of the Outlander series. The mystery was intriguing to be because of the supernatural possibilities mixed with possible prosaic answers. The closeness of the possibility of supernatural answers feels really time appropriate. The story was enjoyable and I liked the resolution. Rating: 3.5 stars.LORD JOHN AND THE HAUNTED SOLDIER: Lord John is engaged in an inquiry as to the explosion of a cannon during battle. Through a series of events, Lord John ends up with the only evidence that the cannon was poorly constructed, perhaps even criminally so. The novellas in this series have so far not interested me as much as the previous novel. I was interested in the investigation but perhaps the parts of this novella that overlap with the Outlander series was the most interesting part to me. Rating: 3.5 stars.
I enjoy the Lord John books and stories, because I like Lord John! He's a likeable fellow with a dangerous way of life. Not that one precludes the other, but in the 18th Century Sodomites, as they were called, faced a death sentence if found out. Lord John Grey is an urbane, attractive, adaptive and quick-witted man who happens to be what we call "Gay" in the 18th century. These 3 stories may not please all, but they are worth reading because they add to the body of knowledge about Lord John. They don't need to be read to enjoy the larger (in every sense!) Gabaldon books, but they do form part of the body of work and have their own value. That said, I think I liked "Lord John and the Succubus" best for the character development of some of the Other characters in the story, and shows us the cleverness of Lord John in a ... well, clever way! Highly recommended!
Of course Lord John is not as exciting as the main Outlander characters, and in the main books to me he seems a rather flat character, convenient for providing Jamie and Claire with access to money, supplies, and to keep us informed of the life of Willie. But these stories, set between the years of the separation between Jaime and Claire, make John a much more interesting and complicated character. There is a small mystery in each of them and a larger mystery that flows through all the Lord John stories so far, which is worth the read. They can be read alone (and in any order according to Gabaldon) but the greatly enrich the main storyline in the Big Enormous Books. As an entire collection, they contribute a lot to understanding the historical background for all the characters and they add new ones of interest to the larger series as well.
Anything Diana Gabaldon writes can be assumed to be well worth reading. She's exceptionally gifted. She creates Lord John as a respectable character but with an overwhelming attraction towards other men, yet the reader rather finds himself/herself reading with tongue in cheek, anticipating Lord John buckling before his preference, even as Lord John himself realizes his preference for "sexual partners" is overpowering. How Gabaldon manages to make this character so completely likable--for his integrity clearly shines through--yet succumbing to his "attraction"--is a work of art. In her other writings, Jamie Fraser, an alpha male, tells Lord John just what HE thinks of him--and it's surely not flattering; but Jamie tells it like it is . . . this book I found to be hypnotizing reading, for sure; and the settings of which Diana Gabaldon writes just fit right in--absolutely perfect. This book, as are all of her writings, is a page turner. I think she had a good time writing it, probably chuckling to herself at times. (I indicated in this review that it was written in the third person--I read it some time ago, can't really remember. I do know in OUTLANDER Series, Claire is written in 1st person, as I recall--so perhaps I have that all mixed up--no time to check right now.) One can't help but like Lord John, and rather wish he can stay "out of trouble,." yet we anticipate his putting his "hand in the cookie jar" helplessly. The man's respect for others--male or female--comes across as being beyond reproach. One could trust him with one's bank account . . . but, his vocation and sexual preference does present some interesting and exciting confrontations!!!
IMHO, Diana Gabaldon cannot write a bad story. That said, I've liked some of the books in the Outlander series better than others. The same is true in this combined series of three novellas.Of the three I liked the third one, Lord John and the Haunted Soldier, the best because it touches briefly and indirectly on the deeply poignant feelings that Lord John has for Jamie Fraser. It also highlights several admirable aspects of LJ's character in a story that is a very good and entertaining read. For me, Lord John is the absolute best of the Outlander secondary characters and I will read any story involving him. He absolutely touches my heart.
