And with some plots carrying over from the eighth novel, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Written-Own-Hearts-Blood-Outlander\/dp\/0553386883?tag=tvinsider00-20\"><em>Written in My Own Heart\u2019s Blood<\/em><\/a>, we\u2019re breaking down the book plots we know will pop up in Season 8, based on the trailers and other released information so far. Scroll down to see five plots we\u2019re eager to dive into for <em>Outlander<\/em>\u2018s final TV run.<\/p>\n<h2>Revolutionary Woes<\/h2>\n<p>The Revolutionary War continues to loom large over the Frasers as a family, as Jamie\u2019s fate is called into question with encroaching unrest. As fans have seen over the past several seasons, the war has confronted Claire, Jamie, and the rest of the Frasers head-on since they settled in North Carolina at Fraser\u2019s Ridge. Will viewers see it come to an end before the show is through? Only time will tell, but fans can count on that book thread carrying over onscreen.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1234220\" style=\"width: 865px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1234220\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Starz<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Family Reunion<\/h2>\n<p>The show\u2019s <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/gallery\/outlander-season-8-final-trailer-jamie-claire-reunite-brianna-fergus-marsali-fire\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">latest trailer<\/a> revealed the impending family reunion set to take place between Brianna (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/sophie-skelton\/\">Sophie Skelton<\/a>) and her parents, Claire and Jamie, as it does in the books. In this instance, Brianna, her husband Roger (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/richard-rankin\/\">Richard Rankin<\/a>), and their kids return to Revolutionary America after taking a trip further back in time, which puts them in the path of her grandfather Brian (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/andrew-whipp\/\">Andrew Whipp<\/a>), years prior to Claire\u2019s first trip back in time. How they\u2019ll return to Fraser\u2019s Ridge will remain to be seen onscreen, but their reunion remains consistent with Gabaldon\u2019s books.<\/p>\n<h2>William\u2019s Reckoning<\/h2>\n<p>In\u00a0<em>Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone<\/em>, William (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/charles-vandervaart\/\">Charles Vandervaart<\/a>) must come to terms with the reality of his parentage after he learned that Jamie is his biological father. While this carries weight with his relationship to adoptive father, Lord John Grey (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/david-berry\/\">David Berry<\/a>), William dives deeper into his identity following the revelation, and it appears that it will continue to translate onscreen. As fans saw in Season 7, William had already begun to react to this revelation, but it seems like that plot will play a bigger role for him in Season 8.<\/p>\n<h2>Frank\u2019s Book<\/h2>\n<p>Another element from Gabaldon\u2019s work that will be incorporated into Season 8 is Frank\u2019s (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/tobias-menzies\/\">Tobias Menzies<\/a>) research, which insinuates that Jamie dies in a Revolutionary battle. The prophecy weighs heavily on the family, and fans will have to tune in to see how it unfolds, but for now, readers can rest assured that this storyline will carry over to TV from Gabaldon\u2019s pages.<\/p>\n<h2>Print Shop Tragedy<\/h2>\n<p>A storyline from\u00a0<em>Written in My Own Heart\u2019s Blood\u00a0<\/em>involves a fire that impacts Marsali (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/lauren-lyle\/\">Lauren Lyle<\/a>), Fergus (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/cesar-domboy\/\">C\u00e9sar Domboy<\/a>), and their family. While we won\u2019t get too specific about the details, it appears tragedy looms if the final trailer is to be trusted. Small snippets of footage hint at the pivotal sequence from Gabaldon\u2019s novel; it seems like a definite book inclusion for Season 8.<\/p>\n<p>Let us know which book plots you\u2019re hoping to see in\u00a0<em>Outlander<\/em>\u2018s final season as the episodes approach, and stay tuned to see how it unfolds when the latest chapter arrives on Starz.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Outlander<\/strong><\/em><strong>, Season 8 Premiere, Friday, March 6, Starz<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>More Headlines:<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.wfmz.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[The below contains MAJOR spoilers from the\u00a0Outlander\u00a0book series.] Outlander\u2018s eighth and final season approaches, and with it the conclusion of Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie Fraser\u2019s (Sam Heughan) onscreen journey.
