Along with thousands of other readers, I am a huge fan of the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon. While impatiently waiting for “Written In My Own Heart’s Blood” to come out, I read her novella “A Leaf on the Wind of All Hallows” which tells the back story of Roger McKenzie’s parents.
It was two weeks yet to Halloween, but the gremlins were already at work.”
Roger’s father, Jerry, is a Royal Air Force pilot during World War II and the “gremlins” are hard at work on the plane he is flying. This short story is a great addition to the Outlander series and fills in quite a few blanks about Roger’s life. It just wasn’t long enough!
