Fans of Outlander are in for an extra treat in the coming weeks. As well as using the map to follow the battles that frame the series, they’ll be able to read about further adventures in the vast Outlander universe, thanks to a collection of short stories by author Diana Gabaldon.

Seven Stones to Stand or Fall features many characters that Outlander aficionados already know and love. As well as previously published stories Virgins, The Space Between, Plague of Zombies, A Leaf on the Wind of Hallows and The Custom of the Army, this collection also features two never-before-seen adventures.

Besieged follows Lord John as he travels to Cuba to prepare for a siege of Havana, and A Fugitive Green tells the story of a 17-year-old book dealer on a dangerous errand from Paris to London.

Seven Stones to Stand or Fall is released on 29 June.
