We don’t have a release date yet, but you can currently pre-order Outlander Book 9. Here are all the details to get your orders in before Christmas.

Diana Gabaldon is still hard at work on Outlander Book 9, titled “Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone.” We don’t have a release date just yet, with Herself telling us that the writing should be finished by Christmas. Sadly, that won’t be when the official release is, but that doesn’t mean we can’t get ready for it.

You can currently pre-order the title through The Poisoned Pen website. This is the only place it’s available to pre-order right now. Usually, Amazon and other online retailers won’t make it available until a release date has been set. The copy from The Poisoned Pen will be signed, but there usually is an unsigned version if you want that instead.

As for when that release date will be, it’s still not clear. Gabaldon will be finished with the writing by the end of this year, but that doesn’t mean we’ll get a release right away. The publisher will need to print the books, get the cover ready, and make sure the recording is done for the audiobook. The novel will likely be released on Audible and other audiobook sites at the same time as the hardback cover.

We’re looking at a couple of months work just for that, but it would be nice to get the book in time for Season 5’s release on STARZ. We could end up waiting until after the release, allowing for more promotion with the focus on something exciting during the next Droughtlander.

But at least there’s a chance to pre-order the book right now. That suggests we’re getting much closer.
