[quote=""diamondlil""]Diana Gabaldon has said that that scene will be the very last thing explained in the last book.[/quote]

[quote=""Misfit""]She does leave a lot of lose threads lying around throughout the books. Many (but not all) were tied up in ABOSAA. Can't wait for Echo in the Bone.
BTW, according to Amazon the release date for Echo is September 29, 2009.[/quote]
It did feel as though a lot of the loose ends were tidied up didn't it, and that there was some very swift unraveling at the very end.

Found this cover on Goodreads,
Also found these two gorgeous covers but my French is sorely lacking so I can't quite tell which books they are.

I can't comment for sure but I know in some European countries some bigger books are divided in two and sold separately.
