Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

There are several covers to these books. I started reading the first book (Outlander) that I picked up at a half priced book store. However, the book was "small"-ish. It didn't want to stay open in my hands. The font was too small to read comfortably without my reading glasses. Add to that, I didn't love the cover art with the actors on it - no offense intended, I just like clean book covers. After reading half-way through the first novel with this used copy, I decided that I was "all in", and looked to see what a set would cost. This full set is highly economical compared to purchasing each book one at a time. The covers have a flow to them so that it looks like a set rather than an eclectic hodge-lodge of acquired books. Usually, that doesn't bother me, but I have a suspicion that these are going to become a treasure on my shelf. The covers shown here are pretty true to form - intense blues, greens, and reds. The pages are a brighter white than the smaller book. NOTE: What is really interesting, is that I took a picture of what I thought was the same passage - and there are differences in the passage. "Lunch" vs "Dinner", "Supper vs Dinner". "Lowlands vs Border". So apparently, it's more than a face uplift here - this is a full on edition difference. I don't even know which one is closer to the original, or if my version has a different editor altogether. Pros: - Whiter pages - Larger font, but not too much larger. - Easy to hold open - Vibrant colors Cons: - Edition change? I'd like to know which was better.
